FlashBack RetroPub OKC is a barcade that pairs classic arcade gaming with a neighborhood pub atmosphere on Sheridan Avenue in Oklahoma City. Sitting at 814 W Sheridan Ave Ste A, the venue blends vintage cabinets and pinball with a full bar, offering an after-hours hangout aimed squarely at adult retro gaming fans rather than families with small children.
Oklahoma City’s gaming scene has steadily grown in recent years, with options ranging from large-scale family entertainment centers to dedicated arcade rooms scattered across the metro. Visitors exploring the city can find Brickopolis Family Entertainment Center, Chuck’s Arcade, and Revolutions By HeyDay all within Oklahoma City proper, alongside bigger-format venues like Dave & Buster’s Oklahoma City and the activity-bar spot Altitude 1291. Each serves a slightly different format, giving arcade fans a real choice between retro pinball stops, modern FEC layouts, and bar-anchored play.
FlashBack RetroPub OKC carves out a distinct niche in that lineup as a retro-focused bar rather than a family FEC. With a 4.5 out of 5 rating drawn from 1,300 Google reviews, the venue has built a loyal following among locals who appreciate both the nostalgic cabinets and the pub-style drink service. The Sheridan Avenue location places it in an easy-to-reach part of the city, making it a natural anchor for an evening crawl that combines a few stops from the directory.
