If you're looking for a unique place to unwind in Des Moines, Up-Down stands out as an entertaining destination that combines nostalgia with great food and drinks. Featuring a massive arcade with beloved video games from the 80s and 90s, it's not just a bar—it's a full experience. Whether you're a local or a visitor, playing classic games like Pac-Man or pinball while enjoying carefully selected craft beers creates a lively and memorable atmosphere. From personal experience, the slice pizza options perfectly complement the drink selection, making it an ideal casual spot for groups of friends or dates. The venue manages to capture the charm of vintage arcades with a modern twist, attracting both gamers and those simply looking for a fun night out. Located in the heart of Des Moines, it’s also easy to access and fits well within a bar crawl or an evening exploring the city’s vibrant nightlife.
