Bit Bar Salem

Bit Bar Salem combines a classic arcade and pinball hall with a restaurant and full bar. Players can work through a rotating lineup of classic machines while the kitchen turns out adventurous takes on comfort food and the bar pours craft cocktails and local beer. The team sources its own games and keeps them running, regularly swapping new machines onto the floor, so the selection does not stay the same for long.

The venue has a historic setting on Derby Street in Salem, with seating both inside the restaurant and on a patio. It is also set up for parties ranging from small get-togethers to big bashes, and organizers build their event by picking a space, choosing token packages for the games, adding catered food and selecting a bar program. The arcade bills its setting as both historic and fun.
