Portions are really big which is good. The place has really cool decorations and looks fun which made us excited for the food but unfortunately, the food was below average. Nothing had salt. Picanha is weird. Maybe it’s pounded with a mallet or something so it doesn’t taste or feel like picanha. The pan con lechon is gigantic which was exciting but it was just "ok". Not bad, but not good. The chicharrones were cut in extremely big pieces which makes the grease way too much too handle and it was also missing salt and flavor. The food came out really quick though and the servers were very nice.

​If you’re looking for a nostalgic escape, Glitch Bar is the place to be. It’s a fantastic video game bar that truly makes you feel youthful again. What really sets this spot apart, though, is the incredible service. Aaron is hands-down one of the best bartenders I’ve ever encountered—he truly makes the experience special, so be sure to ask for him! Liz is equally amazing, and the entire staff makes every visit a blast. I can’t recommend this place enough!

Glitch Bar – Fort Lauderdale Glitch Bar is a staple in the vintage and urban heart of Fort Lauderdale — and great music for good reason. The atmosphere perfectly blends retro arcade vibes with a modern bar scene, making it one of the most unique hangout spots in the area. The drinks are solid, the music sets the tone, and the best part? Buy a drink and you get to play a ton of classic arcade games — it’s pure nostalgia mixed with good times. The location couldn’t be better — perfect for a fun date night or a bar-hopping adventure with friends. There are plenty of cool spots nearby, but honestly, you should always end your night at Glitch Bar. It’s the perfect mix of fun, energy, and memories waiting to happen.

Great selection of beers, and you get a complimentary pass for all the games available. Cool to see both retro and current arcade games in the same place. The Honey Love cream ale was phenomenal and a whopping 9% abv., lol. Well priced food, well priced drinks, and very nice staff. We walked in and it was bingo night and they were giving away prizes. Felt amazing to be in a place where you weren't expected to pay every time you wanted to play a game and this definitely made it easier to drink all night long

Super cool concept. Buy a drink at the bar and you can play old-school video games for free. Tavern cut pizza was good also. Definitely recommended

I didnt get to try food on my first visit but overall I'll definitely recommend planning a hang out here, even a date. It's so nostalgic to be able to play an old school arcade game that's not on any newer tech devices. They have that option as well but def enjoyed being in an arcade again. The service was great when buying my drink and getting my wristband. Ensure to ask for your band if your getting a drink. If ypu don't wanna drink you can just pay $10 for the band at the bar. I'm definitely going back!

It was like a dream come true, my inner child came out at Glitch Bar. There are tons of games to play, it’s a great spot if you’re looking to hang out with some friends or if you want something different for a date. There are games that accommodates allow for the group to play. It was definitely a memorable time. Looking to go back soon.
