Located along the scenic River Lee canal, and close to Stratford & Hackney Wick tube, you’ll love Four Quarters East! We’re a retro arcade bar that combines classic arcade machines, console gaming, craft beer, cocktails and pizza, all in a sun-drenched canalside location. Perfect for summer afternoons, casual drop ins, group nights out and private hire, we love bringing our retro nostalgic energy to Hackney Wick.

Arcade Games & Consoles

Whether it’s for Pinball, Tekken, Guitar Hero or Street Fighter, Four Quarters East is more than your average canalside bar. Our arcade machines are the real deal, genuine restored vintage cabinets, lovingly brought back to life by our internal team of arcade wizards. These all run on U.S. quarters (get it?) grab them from the bar and you’ll be hitting the high score in no time.

We also have bookable Console Booths starting from £6 per hour, giving you unlimited access to our retro consoles. Challenge your friends on classics like Mario Kart, GoldenEye 007 & Super Smash Bros, in our private gaming zones for uninterrupted play, competitive fun and all the nostalgia you can handle. 

Drinks & Food

Our bar serves craft beers, cocktails and soft drinks, alongside yummy pizzas with vegan & veggie options, perfectly designed for sharing between games. We have worked with local breweries and offer a bunch of tasty craft beer including from the likes of Signature Brew, Salt & Gipsy Hill. All our cocktails are made from scratch on site, and designed by our fabulous team – no matter what your flavour, we’ve got something with you in mind!
