Funkmeyers Rec Room

This is a Saturday night stop if you are out bar hopping. Drinks, music and good service.

9/28/24 Saturday! Place was rocking ! DJ rocked the house. Keep him on Saturdays! 80s music was amazing ! I danced all night long my feet hurt today worth it !Love it !!!

This place is so much fun!! I had a friend in town and we were looking for places to go drink and have fun and we came across this place that's close to Border Ale house... well instead of going there we came to Funkmeyers. We got there kinda a little bit early like around 830pm and at first we were skeptical about the place but we ended up staying and took a few shots and drinks and found out that ALL the arcades are FREE to play!!! When I found that out I was ecstatic!!! There was so many arcades of the 80s. The music was also great!! The name of the place pretty much lives up to its name with old school hip hop to a mix of funk and random 80s and 90s music. Later on in the night it got super packed. For reals I HIGHLY recommend this place!! It's free cover and free arcades and literally $2-3 drinks. Just come check this place out!! I'll be baaaaaaack!!! Enjoy my pics:)

Last night the place was rocking !! I don't know who the DJ was but had it going on with some great 80s! floor was packed ! love going to this place I go to exercise and mingle with friends. love it ! DJ is the most important part of this place. keep it up Funks! 9/28/24 Saturday night

Can you dig it... I just relived my 80s/90s youth in here. From the music to the arcade games to the vibe of the party goers. $5 well vodka tonics or $10.50 for Goose. You can't beat the free games. Played some NBA Jam, TMNT, Super Mario, and my favorite SF2. I didn't get to try the food, if and when I come back to El Paso, I will check out the menu.

The drinks were good and the vibe was cool but the service was lacking. We had called ahead for a big group and asked if the kitchen would be open, they said it was open until 11PM. We show up at 8 PM get our drinks and a food menu. When we tried to order food they told us the kitchen closed at 9 and they refused to serve our party, they told us that at 8:45. We had planned to stay there all night but ending up leaving after an hour thanks to their cruddy service.

So when my friends told me "90s video game bar" i was stoked. Less stoked when we tried to go for lunch one day. Granted, it was a Monday, and afterwards when I found out it was more of a bar that happened to have 90s video games, well the hype died a little bit. It also made sense why they'd be closed for lunch on a Monday.As I understand it, they're trying to steer away from the 90s theme because it seems like folks on the younger end are the bigger demographic. I mean, big surprise the folks in 30s and 40s don't go out and would rather stay in and go to bed earlier. I guess retro isn't as popular anymore. I mean it's not bad. As a bar it has pretty decent food, a good array of drinks, and a place to be sweaty and uncoordinated ie a dance floor. I guess when I came in here I thought it'd be more like an old school arcade that happened to have booze in it. Sort of like that one place with rows upon rows of games, laser tag, bumper cars, and ticket machines, so you could win cheap plastic prizes while getting absolutely hammered. Think Stranger Things but fewer monsters and more high scores. Cowa-friggin-bunga. Unfortunately for my own imagination that was not the case. Still, they have some classic 90s games against the wall. Ninja Turtles (NOT Turtles in Time), Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter, all manner of Pac-Man and others. The games are all free, which is a definite plus.It's just more bar than arcade. Just so you know before going in. If that's what you're expecting out of this place, by all means go on in. I like this place fine, and it's fun to get a little taste of 90s childhood, I just wanted more.

I was passing by El Paso on my way to LA and decided to check this place it out due to its great reviews on Google (apparently Texans aren't big on Yelp. Lol) Walked in, got wanded at the door (Texas) and walked into a 80's/ 90's scene. The music was on point, there were retro arcade games, darts, a stage with patrons dancing, and an overall good vibe. For food, we had the Montecristo and Totchos. The menu on Google is like 3 years old. Please use the one I uploaded, that is ALL the food they have. I highly recommend the Montecristo sandwich, it's like a sandwich is a donut. I know, sounds weird... but just trust me. If you're ever in town, swing by. The staff is on point, music is great, and there is a very diverse crowd. Lots of parking.

Outdated..same layout.. boring, same four walls..who owns a bar no draft beer n no kitchen.. I went in to have a beer..felt I was in adult daycare..dead no vibe.. I had to leave..this place needs a vision and new ownership..someone help this place.. John Taffer where are you at????!!!!!

Probably one of the best spots in town. Vibes are always A1, the people that go are usually cultured so I haven't been treated with bias by the staff nor by the customers.Very rare to find a place in El Paso where absolutely everyone and anyone can feel welcome.
