Adult arcade vs family arcade vs pure barcade
Dave & Buster's is a chain family entertainment complex. Pure barcades are arcades that happen to serve beer. Harbor Town is a neighborhood pub first — a great room to eat and drink in, with an adult arcade in the back. The best arcade bar in San Diego page explains the full landscape.
