We visited the Back to the 80’s cafe located on S. Maryland in Vegas.
When you get there it’s like stepping into nostalgia, from the outside with the Ghostbusters car parked in the front to the cool door sign. Inside this quirky spot is a treasure trove of 80’s memorabilia and posters, creating a fun and vibrant atmosphere. The simple yet delicious menu offers basic options and also vegan burgers, catering to various dietary preferences. What truly sets this place apart is the incredibly friendly staff, who enhance the overall experience with their warmth and enthusiasm. This place is a must-visit for both 80’s enthusiasts and casual diners looking for a welcoming and casual experience.

What a cute restaurant!! The sign got my attention first. But the details in recreating the fun of the 80s in general as well as evoking the BttF movie's Cafe 80s are so good.
I ordered the loaded fries and a mango shake. Both were excellent, as was the service. And the servers are so nice! I was there around lunch when it was a little slower, but they also have a weekly karaoke night that would be a lot of fun if you're in town for it.

This place is definitely a nostalgic nerd haven, and I loved it. The staff were all friendly, the place looks so neat, and the food was delicious. There's a lot of amazing looking things on the menu so this might become a regular place for the family.

Amazing little nostalgic spot. It's like walking into a time warp! Endless stuff to look at and reminisce on. The entire staff is so friendly and attentive. The owner Chris is probably the most down to earth person you'll ever meet. Great prices and specials on drinks and food. Everything on the menu is super reasonable especially being so close to downtown/ strip. This is a must go to if you're in Vegas. You won't be disappointed!

This is a must go to place if you have any interest in the 1980's. This originally began in Sacramento, but is now in Las Vegas on Tropicana & Maryland parkway. Everything is delicious & they put in amazing effort to get the 80&s love in the decor & atmosphere. The walls have movie posters, albums etc. Music...80's all the time! There is a Ghostbusters Ecto 1 parked in front of the restaurant. Nuff said!

I found this gem of a cafe on Instagram while looking for fun ideas off the Vegas strip for our visit from Australia. Absolutely loved it, the whole vibe was so fun, super nice staff. I had a garden burger which was amazing, also tetris tater tots were sooo yum. Hubby loved his burrito!

What an awesome place! This is very close to UNLV. We came for lunch and were greeted by George McFly, it was amazing. I ordered the culture club sandwich and a strawberry watermelon lemonade. I walked around looking at all the posters, cut outs, and displays and you can't help but smile as you look at everything. You get a song with your meal which is fun! We will definitely be coming back on a Saturday night to check out karaoke!! The sandwich was pretty standard, but the fries were bomb! Decent food, awesome atmosphere, and great service. If you're an 80s fan, check this place out!!
