We built the place we always wanted to go.
jointhefunparlor.today began as a simple idea between two friends: modern cities had forgotten how to play. So we built a parlor for grown-ups who still believe in high scores, duet nights, and ordering "just one more" round.
A love letter to the nights we remember.
Every detail — from the velvet booths to the perfectly uncalibrated claw machine in the corner — is here on purpose. We obsess over the small stuff so you never have to.
Our team is made up of arcade collectors, former bar managers, lighting designers and one very enthusiastic karaoke champion. Together we've created a space that's equal parts nostalgia and novelty.
Three rules of the parlor.
Everyone plays
Accessible, welcoming, judgement-free. Whether it's your first Pac-Man or your thousandth.
Quality over flash
Real cabinets, real drinks, real people. No gimmicks, no sticky floors, no "out of order" signs.
Nights that matter
We're not a venue — we're a place where proposals happen and friendships level up.
