Owner Kyle Seller previously told Daily Hive that he hoped that guests would enjoy the classic, old-school feel of Secret Arcade.

The Vancouver arcade housed 10 pinballs, five arcade cabinets, and a foosball table, and was set to free-play once you paid a flat entry fee.

Many of the machines have their own history in Vancouver, having been previously set up in bars such as Pub 340 and 12 Kings, as well as at Good Co., the Vancouver Fringe, and more.

Seller is also the owner of East Van Amusements and Industry Arcade in New Westminster, which are still in operation.

The latter is a free-play party rental arcade in the Braid Industrial, just minutes from the Sapperton Skytrain Station.

That's a shame, I never even saw it mentioned anywhere online or on google maps.
