25-50 cent arcade games! Step back into your childhood playing games at EightyTwo with an adult flare. I rarely went to the arcade growing up, but when I did, it was always fun...and it still is.
This 21 and over arcade has a full bar along with an outdoor patio area for socializing. EightyTwo carries games from the 1970s - present. They rotate what's on the floor, so if you have a specific game in mind, check their website first to see if it's on display.
Located in the Arts District of Downtown L.A., there's a ton of things to do before and/or after playing Ms. Pac-Man or the new Game of Thrones and Walking Dead pinball machines. This outing can easily be paired up with dinner and karaoke but be sure to check Google Maps as it can be difficult to spot. It's best to get there before 21:00 to avoid lines.
"The Music Center" in downtown Los Angeles--the place to go for opera, theater, music & dance! I love coming here, even just to enjoy the area while eating.
