About 1UP
Downtown Farmington's Arcade Bar
1UP Arcade opened its doors in September 2018. We're located in the heart of Downtown Farmington — you'll find us next to the iconic Farmington Civic Theatre, and above Basement Burger Bar.
Our bar features 25–30 arcade games that rotate out, a Nintendo Switch that's free to play at the bar, and a vast amount of delicious hand-crafted cocktails. Don't forget about our full-service bar! We're proud to offer a huge selection of Michigan-made spirits and Michigan-made beers. Our mixologists will craft you a cocktail that satisfies your thirst — try favorites like the Donkey Kong or a nod to Ms. Pac-Man.
1UP Arcade Bar was awarded Best Bar in Farmington 2022, and we could not be more delighted. We'd like to thank all the residents of Farmington and all of our patrons for years of loyalty, and for their recognition of the hard work and love we put into everything we do.
Our space is available to rent for your next party. We look forward to entertaining you!
