1013114 Token

This is a rare thing - an actual new pub, rather than a rebrand of an existing one.

Based in what was built to be retail units on Queen Street, this retro gaming arcade opened as a restaurant early this summer and then upgraded to a pub licence shortly after. It is still heavily food based, with little in the way of seating for drink-only purposes - however, nearly every games cabinet has a drinks holder.

Upstairs, there's a big range of original, non-emulated cabinets from the 70s to the 90s; downstairs there a range of pinball machines. Nearly everything is one token a go, with tokens 50c each in low volumes and reducing to as little 30c should you wish to buy rather too many for one evening! I'd recommend getting 10 at least.

Larger groups wanting food would be advised to book a table in advance as it was quite busy on a weekday evening.
