11 Old-School Video Game Bars We'd Love To Visit In Real Life

7. Jolly's - Banjo Tooie

FINAL fantasy 7 VII 7th heaven
Rare

At several different points you may ask yourself if this game can get any weirder. The answer is no - it maintains a high standard of weird throughout.

Jolly's tavern meets that standard, though it also manages to feel like a cozy, old-fashioned inn, especially with its charming location in a sunny lagoon. It'd be a nice place to hang out just before you enter the dreaded underwater level.

Jolly Roger and Merry Maggie, a couple of deformed toads dressed in 1960s beachwear, run the place for their only apparent patron, a giant pirate named Captain Blackeye.

They serve Ginger beer on tap, and the menu features a mysterious dish called “Seaman's Surprise.” We'll let you figure that one out on your own.
