Remember when a pocket full of quarters and Frogger was peak happiness on a Friday night? It was even better if your parents remembered to pick you up before the arcade closed. We didn’t have cellphones or such high standards for parenting, and it was all so much better.
You’ll be able to relive those good times at a new bar and arcade that’s opening on West Davis Street in North Oak Cliff on July 19. Round Two is the sister concept of miniature golf spot Another Round (660 Fort Worth Ave. in West Dallas). Round Two is in the former Flashback Retropub space.
The new arcade and bar is at 821 W. Davis. There’s a cover fee of for 21 and up.

Owners Alicia and Kendall Spence have partnered with local deli Edylicious for food at the venue. You can build your own brown bag lunch (but they won’t put little notes in it like Mom used to). There’s also a full bar with signature cocktails and shots.
