This was a go-to during my grad school days at NYU, Ace Bar was always used as the "example" for dodgeball.com & foursquare use cases. It's still the first place I think of when testing new features.
One of my favorite bars in the east village . Buck hunter , skee ball , darts , and pool tables . Play all four games in a World Series with your friends.
Ace Bar's got a little bit of everything: pinball machines , skee-ball, Big Buck Hunter HD, & pool for a dollar per game. You can also play a round of darts or show up to Sunday trivia night for free. Read more
Super fun bar with cheap happy hour deals (including weekend midday - $3 drafts )... few arcade games , plus billiards and skeeball - for a cost, but great activity
Will be my new spot in alphabet city . I love this place. There's plenty of space, $3 & $4 beers during happy hour , excellent service and you're right across from black iron burger . ????????
This is. Like Dave & Busters without all the kids. Ski ball, Darts , pool, cute busboy , Great happy hour . Big TVs not too crowded for the sunday football???? games.
Skee ball , darts and pinball ... Oh my! Great bar ! Be aware that it gets crowded and can be a little fratty on some nights. Still fun, though.
Had my birthday party there on a Saturday night. Went off without a hitch. Jeff was really helpful getting us all situated and Maria could not have been better to us.Took care of all of us. Great spot
Awesome spot to chill . I play APA pool on Tuesdays. Awesome house beer and super friendly staff !
A solid selection of beers on tap for $3-$4 during happy hour . Go for a magic hat #9.
Great place to shoot pool, play darts or skeeball , or pinball . Friendly bartending staff . Strong drinks . Bring your own food.
Cool spot lots of yuppies but good drinks and bunch of fun games. Best my high score on the Metallica pinball machine !
Great weeknight bar , gets crowded on the weekends. Play pool , skeeball , Buck Hunter or darts and just enjoy pure divey-ness.
The grilled lemongrass chicken is delicious, but I'm assuming so is everything else on the menu. Also can't be beat for the price!
lots of fun early in the night- plenty of places to sit, nice staff , $4 beers , games and you can order in food!
Fun bar ! There's a lot of space for activities. They got pinball machines , buck hunter , skee ball , darts , and a couple pool tables .
They have 2 dart boards , 2 ski ball tables and a pool table . I was there on Friday at 10pm and it was a younger crowd (21-25).
Fun place for literally anyone that likes fun. I love skiball, necessary addition to any East Village bar hopping night.
A dive bar with power outlets at the bar . Get smashed and charge your phone at the same time! So efficient.
Does this bar look familiar? Ace Bar was featured in the Netflix series, Master of None starring Aziz Ansari.
Youthful energy at its most aggressive in here. Some games, (pinball , darts , skee ball , pool) an awesome werewolf and low-priced b00ze.
Like lithographed metal lunch boxes from the '50s, '60s and '70s? Ace Bar has strong game.
Bring your own food and chug bud lights while playing buck hunter and hopefully not bumping into a college friend of your ex boyfriends neighbor.
When in doubt, this place is always a good birthday option. It's large enough where it's never super crowded AND has games!
Fun games in the back, classic beer selection on draft , sports usually on a few TVs
Skeeball , darts , pool tables , and other arcade games . Perfect for hanging with friends. Cheap beer
Games ... Pinball , skee ball , darts , pool and fun no fuss proper w great music
$3 dollar hi-lifes. All you need in life.
You have to pay separately for both the skee ball and pool table . Do try the ace pear cider !
Skee ball is great, but it'll swallow your quarters; better off using cash. And be careful with the darts !
Pool, Darts , Skee Ball . Feels like a Chuck E. Cheese 's for drinking co-eds. Happy Hour from 4-7pm Everyday! $3-$6 Drafts and Well Cocktails .
Player's choice: Ace Bar has Skee ball , trivia and most importantly, DARTS!
See that comment there below from "Michael Aiingorn"? (Aka: Ayngorn, Einhorn, Aingorn, Ainhorn, etc.) Don't accept one of his ATMs. He is a criminal scam artist . Real company name: FTF Inc.
It's like Chuck E. Cheese for adults: Skee ball , pool, darts and drinks! Fun place for late night .
Long standing establishment that still holds a cool factor, love skee ball and pool table action.
miller high life only $3, SCORE! but their stern pinball machines are not that exciting, could use an upgrade if they expect to keep the "pinboys" attendance, or you could play real games in the back Read more
Skeeball in the back for $1 a game. Gets crowded tho. May throw off your backswing.
Tuesday night is big buck hunter league! It's a great time with awesome people. #makeshotstakeshots
If you plan to pass out on the skee ball ramp, bring a pillow .
Great place to go with friends- skeeball , pool, and darts !
Super divey bar with darts , pool tables , pinball and skee ball machines.
Arcade games and $4 drafts . Fun spot in alphabet city .
Cool place to chill and hit up on an EV bar crawl. Play some games to break up the drinks.
Skeeball , pool, darts , board games , beer , and they're playing the theme song from Charmed right now. My kind of place.
So much fun inside. Skeeball tournament was happening. Lots of yelling. But like. Fun yelling
Games and late night happy hour prices make this a winner
Fun bar games and cheap beer . $3 PBR is always worth a visit.
Bar w/ lots of games. Gets kind of crowded and overheated sometimes.
Be a skee baller! Ace is one of my fave old school NYC bars . They've got new fancy red booths ! Nice.
Transformers pinball = best modern machine in city . Good for beer + recreation post Minca or Black Iron Burger .
Incredible beer selection. Cool backyard, but it closes early. Try St. Peter's Organic English Ale. - Laura Vitaro
