Customer Reviews

My girlfriend and I come here a good bit. The games are fun. It's a nice little place to come for some fun.

The staff were very nice and friendly. A lot of fun games to play & my son had a really good time. We will definitely be coming back.

Family and I love this place!!! Games are clean and staff was super nice. We will be back.

Over priced fixed games with cheap prizes. First swipe on a game and the game took our money not to mention double charged us. So I approached the young male attendant to ask for a fix. He felt like I was lying so he had to go check the game and then told the owner/manager who went to fix it. I then asked the male attendant if he realized that it took double the amount and his response was if you keep holding your card to the machine it will keep taking your money idk what to tell you. So I asked to clarify

First time was a charm! This was our first time visiting Extravaganza arcade. It has a great variety of games, including pinball games! The staff was very nice and friendly and helpful. We had a lot of fun! We will definitely come back in the future. It is great that Greenville has more entertainment options like this for kids, teens and adults too!

I had a great experience here, both times coming. It is a wonderful reward for the kids. We ended up winning an Oculus VR set and they (store employees) were also excited for us. I got very good vibes from the individual behind the counter, "Keith" for short. I strongly recommend anyone come here as a way to get the children out of the house and have some good family fun.

I had my daughters birthday party here and it was amazingggg! All of the staff are very nice and attentive to any needs. The games are sooo fun and there are a variety of them! You can even play games to try to win shoes or a Ps5. Also the birthday packages are a great deal. Book your next birthday party here for sure !!!

A great time with your family or friends! Patient and helpful staff (4 - 10 y/o kids), super cool stuff, and great prices will guarantee you walk out with a smile.

The employees here made my grandsons birthday a success great people definitely going back was an awesome experience thank you y'all are awesome

Dollar Tree prizes for $20+. Imitation Chuck E' Cheese. We only go cause we have a child. This is a place you go to maybe once every 2/3 months.

Half there place was on the other side of a wall. Didn't notice till we were leaving. Stranfe they didn't have signs pointing to the other half. Expensive for little reward.

If I could give Extravaganza 10 stars I would! Great customer service/staff and endless fun for the kids. Best arcade in Greenville!!!

Staff was incredibly nice and helpful. Would highly recommend for birthday parties.

I love this place. Been coming here for years. Now I often bring my 2 kids here.

Great place! Employees are super friendly, very clean. Def going back!

Two of the 3 pinball machines have flipper issues, and that's the only thing I went there for.

I had a great experience with my family. The manager was very helpful and courteous.

I'm a grown man who turned into a kid again when I saw that Greenville was getting an arcade. My wife said I had a huge smileon my face the whole time.

My family and I love this place! We will definitely be back again.

Great experience with my family last night!

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.”
