Best Bar For Indoor Games (pool, darts, etc.)

“Game Night” doesn’t always have to mean a night in the living room. Gaming might be bowling, arcade games, billiards, or anything else you can dominate at! Consider Reboot Social (220 S. Barstow St., Eau Claire), which ranks first with its huge selection of old and new arcade games, duckpin bowling, board games, pinball, and more. Ranking second is Wagner’s Lanes & Complexx (2159 Brackett Ave., Eau Claire) a Chippewa Valley institution with 20+ lanes of bowling for open play and leagues. Happy Hollow Tavern (1628 N. Hillcrest Pkwy, Altoona) ranks in third, which has a ton of pool tables surrounding its bar. — James Johonnott
