In this episode of The Cabin Podcast, we explore a variety of unique and exciting arcade bars across Wisconsin. AnaElise Beckman kicks things off with the story of Aftershock Classic Arcade in Madison, founded by Brad Van after discovering a broken Pac-Man machine. Now revived by Chris Welch, it features classic games like Dance Dance Revolution and House Of The Dead, along with a selection of craft drinks and snacks. Eric Paulsen highlights Vagabond Arcade in River Falls, where visitors can enjoy retro games by paying an hourly rate, and Heroes Venture Arcade in Two Rivers, which boasts over 150 games without the need for quarters. Jake Rome takes us to The Garcade in Menomonee Falls, offering over 150 arcade games and 30+ pinball machines, as well as WOW - Wausau on the Water Family Fun, a family-focused arcade with great deals and event spaces. Lastly, we visit Cherry Lanes Arcade Bar in Sturgeon Bay, a renovated bowling alley turned hotspot for unique cocktails, craft beers, and vintage arcade games, featuring weekly free bowling and Xtreme bingo nights.
