Ironic decorations, cool location, but no hipsters here

What is it with bars and Ms. Pac-man? The Village Voice profiles a new bar in Brooklyn that they assure the reader is not too hipster-oriented, and provides a picture of a man playing on (with?) the bar's very own Ms. Pac-man. But if the bar profiled by the Voice is anything like this place in the East Village, then it might be just a bit hipster after all. I mean, are we expected to believe that a person whose job it is to review bars in the coolest neighborhoods in NYC, for the Village Voice, no less, can really tell hipster from non-hipster? Wouldn't such a person never even encounter anything less than hip?
