I was there twice in that brief period it was opened prior to lockdown and it was fun and busy both times.  Good selection of beer too.  Love its back alley location.  Really hope they make it but they are even further handicapped than most bars in that a big part of their draw is the video games.  Will Public Health even allow these to be used when bars are initially opened? Even if they do, many may be wary of using them.

 I don't think there are any proven cases of covid-19 being spread by arcade games ...  One assumes they will be thoroughly cleaned between uses, no?

I've never seen pinball machines or arcade machines that get cleaned between uses. They could, but that's definitely a lot of extra labour than their business model accounted for.

There's also much less than 6 ft between the machines, so maintaining space from other players is a problem.
