☀️ 🎶 The only time you’ll think of Cruel Summer is when you hear it on one of our many playlists ☀️🎶

Where else can you play tons of arcade classics, pinball, console gaming, air hockey & more for very little coin? Here at Pixels, that’s where.

And starting Thursday, July 23 we’re going to sweeten the pot for locals EVERY Thursday through the end of August. Want to play longer than an hour (already only 12 bucks for all you can game)? Show us your ID and, if you live in a town in Marin county, we’ll convert you to a DayPass (normally $16) at no extra charge.

It’s all ages all day — everyday — until 8 PM but, then, we dim the lights and turn it into an Adult Swim playground.

Let everyone else go to “those other guys” with the ticket machines, the screaming kids and warehouse environment and come to Pixels where, for under $20, you can play an hour of unlimited games and get yourself a soft drink or, for under $25, add on a craft beer, cider or sour from our self-pour beverage bar. Nothing cruel about that!

BIG Citra taste in this velvety new Hazy from Fieldwork. TROUBLE is you can’t stop at just one. And we doubt if you will find these IN LITTLE CHINA — but you will at Pixels. All aboard The Porkchoo Express to flavor! Fieldwork®️ 🚨🍺

Mondays are like Fridays at Open Mic Comedy Night here at Pixels. Where else can you see such a wide range of performers doing what they love for the price of a beverage? Hosted by San Rafael comedian Mark Maccollin and a rotating cast of guest hosts, we love seeing this community rally together, support each other, offer feedback and cheer each other on. Don’t be surprised if one or more of these regulars breaks out on the national stage at some point — we just hope they remember us “way back when” 😂 Sign up through Bay Area Comedy Network if you wish to perform (https://m.facebook.com/groups/bayareacomedynetwork/?ref=share&mibextid=wwXIfr) or, if that’s too daunting, simply come down to check it out or get on the waitlist and unleash your inner stand-up!

🍻 NEW BEER ALERT! 🍻 We are now carrying Cellarmaker Brewing Co in cans and on tap. Try Juice Never Sleeps Hazy IPA, which features a unique blend of HBC 586, Galaxy, Citra & New Zealand Cascade for ripping aromas of Scorpion Bowls, Cadillac margaritas, Big League Chew & Sour Diesel. Or draw a pint of Arrowtown Pilsner, a West Coast Pilsner inspired by the rugged beauty of New Zealand. Brewed with NZ-grown Motueka and Waimea hops, this lager delivers bright lime zest, fresh pine, and subtle tropical notes, all balanced by a clean, dry finish. Cellarmaker Brewing
