Pixel Bar & Cafe

The Verdict

Ever dipped your hand into a bowl of nachos, reached for the PS4 controller and had it brutally slapped away? You monster. But hey, now you can dip and pick…We found a new bar that's combining your love of jaffles and booze with your love of pwning n00bs.

Yep, Pixel Bar is bringing together games and quality feeds for an endless night of gamin’ goodness.

Shacked up on Huntingdale’s North Road, Pixel has all the good vibes. Feel free to chill, grab a beer, and sit in on a game of old-school Cluedo, or go hard with a 5-hr D&D sesh (with milkshakes and cocktails to boot). You name it, they have it. From console and live-action roleplaying to just a fierce appreciation for Harry Potter, Pixel’s got your Friday night covered. Perfect for the social gamer looking for an entertainment upgrade.  

As for the interior, shelves are lined with our beloved spirits and a Master Chief helmet (for all you Halo lovers). And of course there’s some wall-art of Toad and his mates. But Pixel isn’t just a bar, it’s also a café where you can grab a coffee in the morning or…at 11pm when you just need to hold the fort for one more hour.    

And food? Expect to chow down a couple of jaffles (both sweet and savoury) and psssst, Thurs, Fri, and Saturday nights will see the deep-fryer come alive.

Doors open for battle Monday to Saturdays.
