Mission Control Bar Arcade

Drinks range from $8 - $16. Great acoustics. So much potential here. Arcade games, drinks, DJ and a dance floor... who could ask for more? Me. Change the blown speakers, ditch the fog machine (ugh), and fix or label the arcade games with broken controllers. Other than that, I can't wait to go back. The food court downstairs is also pretty good.

It's a hodgepodge of bars, a food court and a super vintage arcade. Combination of sometimes too loud and sometimes too quiet, you just pick your mid-week chill mode or your weekend party vibe. Great for playing pinball rounds with your friends.

Been going for just about over a year and I love this place. They are going under new management and it sounds like the place is going to go from good to great with this change. Talked with the new manager Sunny yesterday and he’s got some big plans to level the place up. It has great pinball machines (the best selection in my area), great stand-up cabinets, great drinks, and a digital jukebox. The atmosphere is great and I’m always there for at least three to five hours.

Had so much fun!! Went for a birthday 🎂 and birthday girl had a blast so definitely cool atmosphere with a dj and good music 🎶 was hot inside though definitely could use more ventilation in that place but other than that Pizza was delicious had the El Pastor pizza was tasty. Retro games were fun!! Will return for sure!!

Exactly what I was looking for - an arcade with food and drinks. Multiple options to eat and I went with the spiced burgers and their Bhangra smash. Bar upstairs where you purchase tokens and pickup the occasional drink. Lots of pinball games, taking 2-4 tokens each, and I think Godzilla was my favorite. An old school game of Diner was on the first floor but it kept eating my tokens. Regular stand ups are just single tokens but also can vary. Wished I had more time to stay for the pinball tournament at 730! Parking kind of sucks, and the outside signage makes you question yourself, but Google maps will get you there

I've been going to MC since 2019. I really enjoy Friday or Saturday nights with Dj Ceaze. No cover charge. Mix drinks are prices between $12 - 15 bucks and they are good. The Arcade games and pin ball machines are fun. The Halloween parties are fun and music is always on point. I recommend MC to anyone looking to check out a new bar in Downtown Orange County.

This nostalgic barcade is hidden inside McFadden Public Market in downtown Santa Ana. Two nights in a row this ended up being our starting off point for a night out and it didn't disappoint. They have an assortment of games to choose from and a fun game themed menu. We're pretty patient people but the lines at the bar did take awhile to move along even for it being fairly early in the evening. Once we got our drinks we noticed they were made really well. There's also an outdoor balcony with flame heaters in the cooler months. This area looked to be pretty popular for birthdays as half was reserved celebrations both nights.
