Continue, an arcade bar under the arches on Mill Lane
You're thinking
I haven't played one of these since I was nine.
Good. Most people who come in haven't either. Every machine here is a stick and a button or two, and you'll have the hang of it before your drink's poured.
So have a go
One button. Go on.
This is Pigeon Post, the easiest machine in the room. Flap the post across the rooftops, between the chimneys and the weather.
Space or a tap to flap. Your best is kept in this browser, and nowhere else.
You're thinking
It'll eat all my change.
It won't. A credit is a pound, and most games run three or four minutes. If you're settling in for the evening, a night card covers every machine until close.

Isn't it full of kids?
Not after six. Families are welcome on Sunday afternoons, and every other evening it's over-18s, a proper bar, and the machines turned down low enough to talk over.

Getting everyone together is such a faff.
Leave that part to us. Tell us how many of you there are and which night, and we'll hold a booth with the machines around it for two hours.
