The wag bag

In honor of National Dog Day, the entertainment bars — which are both always happy to have doggos on-site — are inviting guests to bring their pups along for the party. All dogs will receive a "wag bag" with a special treat, doggie waste bags and ball (while supplies last).

Both from the Columbus-based Rise Brands, 16-Bit Bar+Arcade is a retro game bar with 50 different classic arcade games and pinball, plus '80s-themed cocktails with names like the Molly Ringwald and Kevin Bacon. Pins Mechanical Co. has 25 pinball machines and 10 duckpin bowling lanes, plus other “old school” entertainment options like foosball, bocce ball and shuffle board and a rooftop patio.

Pins Mechanical Co. is located at 1124 Main St., Over-the-Rhine pinsbar.com. 16 Bit Bar+Arcade is located at1331 Walnut St., Over-the-Rhine, 16-bitbar.com/cincy.
