Retro arcade bar NQ64 plans to open first Leeds venue

A retro arcade bar serving all your old favourites and themed cocktails is planning to launch in Leeds.

NQ64 has enjoyed great success since launching in Manchester back in 2019. It specialises in providing punters with an opportunity to play the arcade video games from their childhoods.

They also serve a host of cocktails themed around video game legends. They also have a host of Craft beers behind the bar.

Andy Hagarth and Matt Robson launched NQ64 with them subsequently opening branches in London, Liverpool and Birmingham among other locations.

BigHospitality has reported the pair’s plans to extend to a number of cities including Leeds. “We have a great team that enabled us to open the first nine NQ64s in a relatively short space of time,” explained Hagarth.

“We are really excited about the next phase of growth. With the backing of Imbiba and, our new partnership with ThinCats, we are looking forward to bringing our neon splattered drinking dens to a host of new guests.”

We’ll bring you more on the plans when we have further details.
