Handcrafted Arcade Cabinets Built Entirely In-House
Unlike many other arcade cabinet producers, Bespoke Arcades handcrafts all of its machines — including the more accessible GT range — entirely in-house. Our skilled carpenters, with decades of experience in woodworking and arcade cabinet construction, use time-tested joinery techniques to create durable, handcrafted arcade machines that can handle the most intense button mashing. Paired with high-end gaming hardware, we ensure a lag-free retro gaming experience every time.
Built on 20 Years of Hands-On Experience
Traditional Craftsmanship Meets Modern Innovation
Everyone has a unique vision of the perfect home arcade setup or personalised gaming system, and since 2005 we’ve invested in the best tools and technologies to make those visions a reality. From custom finishes that match a swatch or veneer sample to precision CNC-cut designs enhanced with artisanal techniques like gold leaf detailing, 3D multi-colour printing, and laser-cut embellishments, we build bespoke arcade cabinets that reflect each client’s imagination and personality.
From Custom Finishes to CNC and 3D Detailing
Our entire design and production process is handled under one roof by experienced professionals — giving us unmatched control over quality and allowing us to turn even the most imaginative ideas into reality.
Personalised Arcade Design With You in Mind
Collaborative Process: Mood Boards to Final Concepts
Our dedicated team of long-standing graphic designers work closely with each customer to create a custom theme, bringing ideas to life through tailored arcade artwork, colour schemes, and branding. Whether it’s classic arcade nostalgia or a modern twist, we go the extra mile to deliver each customer’s vision with precision and flair.
Professional Graphic Designers at Your Service
For clients who are unsure of what style suits their space, we often recommend sending us photos of the installation area or a mood board. From there, we begin a collaborative design process that translates early ideas into a clear design strategy.
Proven Track Record & Industry Recognition
From Harrods to Hardcore Gamers
With over 20 years of experience serving elite clients and hardcore retro gamers alike, we’ve built a reputation as the trusted, expert choice for those seeking premium arcade solutions. Our work has been featured in Harrods, Selfridges, and through top games room retailers across the UK.
Built With Honesty, Quality, and Integrity
We’re not afraid to speak honestly if we believe a client’s concept might compromise the functionality or aesthetics of the final product — even if it means a smaller sale. Transparency and integrity are at the heart of our brand. That’s why our online reviews are written by real customers, never in-house or fabricated.
