Oh goddamn it, it's already closed.

There's one life fantasy down the drain.

*Edit* oh shit, they just moved it to L.A... There's hope after all.

I can't believe how they nailed it.

Check out this awesome shit

The pumpkins' vibe is not specific enough to point to for a nostalgia bar. Not even in 20 years.

To me these places look more like exaggerated kitsch collections...

Yeah, maybe your right. I saw a commercial on some American network affiliate and my face was literally

Looking at the photos, the execution is definitely a little off.... For example, they only have one arcade cabinet. They have an 80's themed pizza-parlor, that place should be stuffed with 80's arcade and pinball games for crying out loud.

Still a pretty sweet concept though and apparently these type of places are popping up all over America.

Oh dude, you must not be a very big SBTB fan. I'm actually thinking of planning a trip down to LA to check it out. I used to have dreams that I was hanging out with the SBTB cast and hanging out at the Max. Going to that restaurant would almost be like living out a fantasy of mine.

E, that Stop Along place looks dope though. I wish there was a place like that out here.

There's a video-game themed bar out in Vancouver and they don't even have any pinball or arcade cabinets. All they had was Smash Brothers hooked up to some T.V's. I couldn't believe it. Super let down.

Decades are becoming nondescript. What kind of food would they serve at a 90's restaurant that would make you think of the nineties? It was mostly defined by shitty snack foods, like Hot Pockets and "I can't believe it's not delivery" pizza. The 2000's are even worse, a decade with even less musical or culinary identity.

what offends me the most about this thread are the quotation marks and the apostrophe in the title.

if that doesn't get fuzzy banned for life, i don't know what will.

Yeah, that's a big pet peeve of mine. When people write 90's instead of '90s. Fucking get it right, blockheads!

A 90's restaurant that eschews mainstream themes, it's certain to turn a profit!
