Not sure we are comparing apples to apples here.. this is a place that sells arcade games, where the other is a bar with older arcade games.

Not exactly what I was thinking about. Was looking for arcade/bar. Not a place to buy classic arcade games.

Yes you can buy the games here but the owner does let you play them also, it may not be like the place you posted but you can still get your childhood gaming on. Her are some places you can go to. Most of Charlottes places are mixed in old and new. many of these places you can still play retro games but just mixed in with newer gaming.

@Choloboy, the difference is the environment of those places, one is for families the other is for the older crowd, nobody wants a bunch of bunch of drunk people playing retro arcade games with kids.

5 church is a solid restaurant but not really a cocktail bar. Cosmos is a cocktail bar though I haven't been there in a couple of years so can't comment on it, Draught is a cool place they have like 40-50 craft beers on tap and have solid bartenders for cocktails. Osso has more of that lounge cocktail bar feel to it than a restaurant and that is at the NC Music Factory.

To me Charlotte is more on the Craft Beer/Pub kick more than anything which I like since I am not a huge liquor drinker other than Burbon.
