What visitors say

Arron Walker

Whenever we have a day out in Worcester we also swim by Retroids for a bit of fun. Not the biggest selection on draught but a well stocked fridge means you’re bound to find something to drink. Don’t worry if you don’t have any change for the upstairs games you can get cash back when you buy your drinks, there’s also a section of unlocked arcade games where you pay a flat fee. The upstairs section has a great choice of pinball machines and a few arcade games, sadly some of these don’t work as intended (coin slots not taking money, controls not working etc). Overall if you’re in Worcester for the day it’s worth dropping in for a bit of nostalgia.

Never had food here. Unsure if they even do! But the snacks are good and well priced so that's a 5! The staff and atmosphere are kind. And the games are also fun and different.

Absolutely love this place. Especially when they have different events on. We went for a friends date on valentines day and it was £15 for both of us for unlimited games. We had so much fun. Definitely visiting again.

What a gem of a place, absolutely loved it. I'm of an age where as a kid, arcade machines were everywhere, in local cafes, in chip shops, restaurants & most entertainment places. They're a rarity these days so it was great to see such a varied collection of old machines, such as Space Invaders, Centipede, Daytona, Ms Pacman, Frogger, Mortal Kombat and then later machines like Mario Kart & Guitar Hero. Plus loads of pinball machines and more besides across 2 levels in multiple rooms, plus a licensed bar! Didn't even need coins because they sold wristbands for all day free play for around £17 for myself and my daughter. We had a brilliant time. Highly recommended!
