Pixel Palace Arcade & Bar Revives Retro Fun in Round Rock

A Throwback Destination with a Twist

Opened in October, Pixel Palace Arcade & Bar at 2471 S A.W. Grimes Blvd is quickly becoming a go-to spot in Round Rock for locals craving a dose of nostalgia. This neon-soaked arcade bar reimagines the classic hangout with a mix of vintage arcade games, modern drinks, and playful nods to childhood favorites—like a full cereal bar menu.

The space caters to both daytime family fun and nighttime hangouts. Parents can bring the kids during the day to introduce them to old-school pinball and classic console games, while adults enjoy creative cocktails and retro tunes after dark.

A Neighborhood Hub for All Ages

Pixel Palace manages a unique balance: it’s a fun weekend stop for families and a casual nightlife option for adults. Trivia nights, themed drink specials, and the comfy retro lounge area make it ideal for groups or date nights.

The ambiance leans heavily into vintage vibes, complete with tokens, glowing arcade cabinets, and staff that keep the energy high without being overbearing. Whether you’re reliving your joystick glory days or discovering them for the first time, the venue is designed for laid-back fun.
