1984

Best. Bar. Ever. Where else can you play classic arcade games for a quarter, be around really nice people, have great beer prices, play board games+trivia, AND have clean bathrooms? No where. Except 1984.

There is 90s trivia on Mondays, karaoke on Thursdays, a DJ on Friday and bands on Saturday.

Don't except to come here for dinner. There's no kitchen, but they do have an assortment of take out menus available and don't mind if you eat there. They also have small snacks and candy available for purchase.

The only con (for many) is that they still do not serve liquor. They do however serve all sorts of beer (big selection), cider, Mikes Hard Lemonades, old fashion Coca-Cola (in a bottle!) and other sodas. I'm also bummed by the location. I'd rather not travel to 4th street, but I'll manage. It's definitely worth it.

Very different than other mainstream bar in Wilmington. I always enjoy to spend time there to play some arcade games or simply enjoy some beers.

1984 is an 80's themed concept bar, thus the name.  Two thumbs up on an original concept.  This place is loaded with arcade games and pinball machines from the 1980s.  Seeing all of these games, bought back memories of going to the arcade at the mall during my youth.  All of the video games are a quarter, just like they were a long time ago.  The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable of video games. They have a nice selection of craft beers, and Pabst Blue Ribbon (PBR) on tap.  Again, another two thumbs up!  Thursday night is 80's karaoke and they have a DJ on Friday nights.

They don't serve food here, but I've been told they have takeout menus for places that deliver there.

If you grew up in the 80's, do yourself a favor and check this bar out!  It will be a trip down memory lane accompanied by 80's music and beer.
