Successfully integrating the concepts of video games and bars, we've created a unique and engaging bar experience. Here, you can not only indulge in carefully crafted cocktails but also immerse yourself in the retro ambiance of the 80s. Whether you're a gaming enthusiast or someone who appreciates delightful drinks, you can find your own pleasure in this space.



Indoors, arcade machines are strategically placed, seamlessly combining with metal pipes to create a sleek environment. One-way metal pipes guide visitors to the bar, symbolizing the culmination of the space at the bar counter, signifying the breakthrough of the final level. SPEEDRUN enhances the atmosphere, creating a sense of speed and challenge.



The space is characterized by a red-toned lighting scheme with metal accents, creating a mysterious atmosphere reminiscent of challenging game levels. The ceiling is adorned with comic book pages, showcasing the essence of each page and presenting Japanese anime details. When guests need to place an order, we've transformed the order bell into a bus stop bell, and the seating consists of actual bus seats. This combination creates the illusion of a bus ready to navigate various levels, entering a mysterious 2D space, and welcoming a blend of alcohol and gaming atmospheres.
