Operating in Nashville, Tennessee, at 1520 Demonbreun Street, Two Bits provided a hybrid restaurant, bar, and arcade experience for the local community. The venue officially opened on January 16, 2014, and was a new concept from Bob Franklin, the owner of the established Tin Roof bars. Two Bits distinguished itself by offering free-to-play classic arcade games such as Space Invaders, Defender, and Ms. Pac-Man, alongside traditional options like shuffleboard, cards, and board games. Beyond its entertainment offerings, it featured a menu crafted by Chef Will Zuchman, 24 craft beers on tap, and a sophisticated cocktail program.

The establishment sought to introduce a unique social entertainment venue to the Demonbreun Street area, blending food, beverages, and diverse gaming options. It also incorporated elements of local history, with its tables constructed from salvaged flooring from the former Broadway location of Hatch Show Print. Two Bits has since permanently closed its doors.
