Well this is it, the final day and night!! Absolutely gutted, can't even put into words how I'm feeling. For the last 3 years it's been going so well but like I said with all the increases happening in April it's a risk I'm not willing to take. In all them 3 years I never took a wage, I took the profit and put back into the business to make it better and better, wether it be new games, arcades, updates, maintenance, beverage stock, I always made sure it had something more and at the 3 year point we was cruising nicely but with all the increasing prices happening there would be a risk we couldn't keep up with these things. Just the increase alone on minimum wage on someone working 10 hours a week is an increase of £800 a year, doesn't sound a lot but put it this way that's a new arcade machine or 2 new consoles.
Anyway I'm not letting it get me down ive sort of come to terms with it so for the final time come on down and enjoy the final day here at 8-Bit.

Isn't sinking in that next weekend will be our last here at this venue!! But we keep things going here at 8-Bit. Could have easily put buzz ( our very popular quiz game) stored away after the pads decided they was glitching but no I decided to replace them and buy some added ones on top, so now our buzz game is 8 player!! Come on down to enjoy this and much more for our final 2 weekends!!

It's with a very sad heart that we have to announce this but unfortunately we will be closing at the end of this month.
Due to the rising costs of literally everything happening in April we have worked out that we could potentially be down thousands on what we annually take.
We would have to raise our prices onto you guys ( drinks, private hire price, hourly pay and play, etc) just to cover our increasing overheads and it's something that we just can't risk doing as that could back fire on us. We have some potential ideas in the pipeline to restart the business in the future and will be looking into these ideas but until then unfortunately we won't be continuing.
It's been an amazing 3 years and an experience that we will hold in our hearts forever. As I've said before we couldn't have done any of it without your support and we thank you all unconditionally for it.
Our final day of trading will be on Saturday the 29th March and will be closed from the 30th.
So please try and show your support for us in our final weeks and pay us a visit.
From myself and all the team here at 8-Bit we thank you!!!
Leon Pimbley.

Oh "RISK" you may have absolutely messed up, not a good idea to graffiti another bar in the same night. Although you graffiti'ed in the toilet we do have a single camera on the walkway to the toilet so between me and the other bar you tagged we'll be able to narrow it down if not eliminate everyone except you. You better hope some other people who was in my bar entered the other bar you graffiti'ed!!! In the mean time I did some graffiti of my own before I paint over it, hope you like it, it's definitely an improvement

Whoever "RISK" is, this is the third time you've graffiti'ed my bar. Anyone know who this is as I'm getting annoyed with...

Whoever "RISK" is, this is the third time you've graffiti'ed my bar. Anyone know who this is as I'm getting annoyed with it and the person will be barred from here indefinitely!!!

So sorry for anyone waiting for replies on messenger, yet again our socials have been playing up and we've not been able to contact a lot of people back. I'm hoping to have this sorted by today or tomorrow and will contact everyone who's messaged straight away. I'm not ignoring people it's a technical error and apologies yet again for the inconvenience.
