Customer Reviews

We had an adult age birthday party there and everyone enjoyed the games! The two guys who set up the place for us were helpful and courteous. A couple of our party attendees have already asked about how they can schedule a group event. Thanks Anthony for all your help with the arrangements! We will be back!

Call the place looking to book an event. Spoke to an employee in the morning and was told that the manager was not in and he would call later on. Called back around 5:30 pm. Spoke to a different person and was told that he would resend the message and that the manager was going to call me that day that he was aware of my message. That was a week ago today, and there is still no call back. Very irresponsible place, or they must be bumming with customers, but from what I have read on the reviews thats not the

We booked our room for 3pm. We arrived at 2:55pm. The front desk said that they cannot get us in the room until the room is available. We waited until 3:15pm and then the customers in that room started coming out. They left the room a mess with beer and Vitaminwater bottles everywhere. We had to wait another 5 minutes for the employees to clean up the room and setup my son on the VR set. We were up and running from 3:20pm until 5pm. They told us the charges are $36.00 per hour and he charged us $72.0

So, this place is not a VR arcade. Drove 30minutes to find out they have nothing but VR golf. Disappointment and false advertising abound.

Staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Can't recommend this place for its service and VR experience enough!

What I think of this place is sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesh

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s it like visiting an arcade today?

It’s a mix of nostalgia and high-energy fun! Many arcades blend retro classics like Pac-Man and pinball with modern VR games, racing simulators, and rhythm challenges — often with music, lights, and a social vibe.

Is it better to go alone or with friends?

Both can be great! Solo visits let you focus on your favorite games, while going with friends adds competition, teamwork, and laughs. Many people plan arcade meetups as a casual hangout or even date spot.

What should I bring to an arcade?

Usually just yourself and a way to pay (some arcades still use coins, others use cards or apps). If you're competitive, bring your A-game. If you're social, bring friends or meet new ones over multiplayer games.

What’s the best time to visit an arcade?

Weekdays or early afternoons are usually less crowded — perfect for focused play. Evenings and weekends bring the buzz, especially at barcades or venues with DJs, tournaments, or themed nights.

Can I meet new people at arcades?

Absolutely! Arcades attract a mix of casual players and serious gamers. Whether you're jumping into a four-player co-op or chatting between rounds, it's a fun, low-pressure way to connect over shared interests.

Are arcades still just for kids?

Not at all. While many arcades are family-friendly, there are also adult-oriented ones with full bars, 18+ nights, or vintage nostalgia themes. Arcades today cater to everyone — from first-timers to lifelong gamers.

Are there events or tournaments I can join?

Yes! Many arcades host regular competitions, retro nights, cosplay parties, and more. Whether you're into high scores or just want to watch and vibe, events add an extra layer to the experience.

What if I’m not great at arcade games?

No worries — arcades are about having fun, not being perfect. Try a variety of games, ask others for tips, and remember: the vibe is more “let’s play” than “let’s win.”
