I wish we knew about this place sooner! We spend so much money at main event and USA go fun park when we could pay one flat fee($15) and play all day! We were even able to leave and come back! Fun for all ages and enough to keep you going for hours on end., we will definitely be back ??
Love that arcade it's sad to see that there's not a lot of people there. They have all kinds of fun arcade games several from when I was growing up on into newer games that are really fun only a couple of them are paid to play. I definitely suggest to give the place a visit
I've went here about 3-4 times with my family of 6. I will say each time we had a lot of fun, but quite a few of the games we wanted to play were out of order or turned off each time we went. My family loves playing games and we are competitive, so we have a good time here. I definitely recommend checking it out.
Good value here . . . but . . . you gotta get a maintenance plan for your pinball machines. Not so cool when two thirds of them are down and maybe a sixth of your arcade games are dead or partially working. Tempest has been down for six months. I appreciate the newer driving and shooter games that are high value. But when so many games and pinball tables are dead the mood is affected. And maybe not be such a sour front desk presence. I love your place but some things about it are kind of a bummer.
Great local spot. 15 bucks and play all day. They have both old arcade games and modern ones as well. There are plenty to choose from for all age groups.
My kid and his buddies had a blast there recently, and one left his glasses on a video game. An awesome employee named Caleb Q saw my cry for help on FB and took time out of his night to let me know that the glasses were found! Caleb, keep shinning!
Are you looking for an amazing arcade? How about a place with tons of machines to play on? Do you love pinball machines, retro fighting games, and multiplayer side scrolling games? What about hanging out with friends and competing against one another? For about $12.00, you get all you can play, like how fair and sweet is that? That being said, bring your when family here. Bring your friends. It beats going to Dave and Busters, does it not? You'll save a lot of money coming here, that's for sure. Coming her
The coolest arcade in the Murfreesboro area! Fun games! Huge variety and nice owners. I love seeing local businesses thrive. Will be back again for more fun! ??
This place was so fun! All of the arcade machines were so cool and the pinball star wars themed one was the funest thing there! The basketball machine or the motorcycle games were probably my favorites! I am DEFENETLY coming back here!
Great place. An inexpensive way to spend a day with friends or family, would be a great first date location. Would just loved to see some of the MANY machines that were down for maintenance instead be operational during my visit.
Tons of pinball, new and old games galore! We were so impressed, their games/machines were so well taken care of. Very nice collection of retro, new video and pinball games. $12 all day play is a great price!
Such a cool place!! Great for a date night! Nice staff, clean, and big. They had every game you could think of. Some new stuff and all the classics I remember from being a kid. So fun and affordable for a whole day pass. Can't wait to go again and bring my friends!
Such an amazing wonderland. Every single arcade game imaginable was in here. It was so much fun. It's a necessity to come here if you're in the area!
Just went there for the first time Saturday, February 11th, 2023 as there was a furry meetup being held there. And to say I was amazed at the variety of games there is an understatement! 15 dollars and you can play all the arcade games you want! They had stuff ranging from classic arcade games like Pac Man and Space Invaders, to some Japanese rhythm games and even some pinball machines! Oh and the staff was very polite and welcoming! Overall, I recommend coming here! You won't be disappointed!
As a child growing up in the 1970?s we had PINBALL and games like Galaxian, Pong, and Space Invaders on 2-color basic graphics. Leap forward 50 years and we have toys that rival many of the best computers of the 1970?s. So it is refreshing to discover Flashback Arcade and the hundreds of old school video games, pinball machines, and arcade games to play. For a $12 admission you can play almost all of the games (there are a couple that have an additional cost) all day long. I walked in and was overwhelmed wi
Good place to spend a day for a reasonable price. Retro games that take you back and newer games gives it a good mix. Pinball machines for days!!! Loved killing clowns in haunted land. Will definitely be back.
An excellent arcade with hours of fun for the entire family (my family is ages 5-44)!! Brought my husband for his birthday and he had a blast! The kids did too. We all left with different favorite games. Old school games, pinball games, newer games - something for everyone! It was good to see all ages of people enjoying themselves. Clean facility. Affordable. Great atmosphere. Family fun, date night fun, fun for kids & teens. All around a great experience. We will be back!!
Great place! Has all the old games and some more recent ones. The cost is excellent for the pass for the day. Wonderful idea for a family or group of friends to spend a day.
This place is awesome. Great trip down memory lane with a good mixture of newer games too. For the price you can't beat it. Only $12 per person for the whole day. There is a handful of games that are pay to play which is great too. We will be back frequently.
One of my favorite places in the states! Anytime I am in Tennessee I always try to stop by! Jeff is always super amazing and helpful!!
I loved it here and i thought it was so cool. Got to play cool games, love the environment, the employee working there seemed cool, and the games worked well. Loved that there's all kinds of games there too from Mappy to Japanese games to shooters; made me very happy. going back again tomorrow.
There is nothing to say about this arcade except it's the best dam place in the whole state. For cheap entertainment you can't beat this place!!! No quarters required!!! So many cool games, huge screen games, ride on and in games, 1 price (15.00) gets you all the fun you can stand from open to close. You can leave go eat come back and play some more. They got snacks, they watch the door very close so your children are safe and they keep it clean. What else can I say? I wish it was in my home town but still
Love this place... so much fun and not a bad price for all day play. We were there for over 3 hours and didn't even realize it!
This place is a hidden GEM! I've been twice already with plans for another visit this weekend. Perfect spot for any retro enthusiasts. I have finally been able to play Atari?s Temple of Doom!
Fun, clean. A great afternoon of retro games! Loads of pinball games and everything seems clean and well maintained. Can play for one price per person as long as u want.
This is the classic arcade I remember from my childhood, darkly lit, full of arcade machines, the sound of clicking buttons dinging bells, music, and the background sounds of a dozens of people having a good time and making memories. Pure gold. Go. Now.
A lot of great games, pinballs, and recent video games. I'm 37 and a lot of those games I grew up with we're there. Great value for $12. I got the snacks thee which were very reasonable prices so that we could hangout longer.
Great place for the family to have fun together. Great price to play too.
I love this place! Being a kid growing up in the 80?s, this place was amazing! Worth every penny!
Decent arcade. Great price.
Update: 2/15 I went back again and this time took my fiance with me. We both had a blast and saved soooo much money. We paid a ton of games for hours and hours and only paid $15 . This would have cost us hundreds of dollars anywhere else. Again, went during a weekday so it wouldnt be packed. Highly recommend trying it. I had an absolute blast playing pinball, old school arcades, and thry even have the newer games too. Played the shooters, I call them quarter pumpers, race car games..everything for hours an
Awesome arcade spot with plenty of pinball machines, 80s, 90s and 2000 arcade cabinets. Good location, very clean and spacious. Good customer service and price is very fair.
Flashback is a staple in the local community. My wife and I have spent many dates here. Incredible collection of retro arcade games as well as modern-day games. The up-front cost of $15 for unlimited play all day is great. Only a few machines, such as a claw machine, cost extra to play.
My kids really enjoyed themselves. Wasn't busy when I went which was on a Friday. But I will go back.
This place sucks if you're going there for pinball. They have about 40 machines, but only 15 were even turned on with several having out of order signs. Of the 15 machines, several had mechanical issues. On one game a ball got stuck, but instead of removing the glass the worker decided it would be better to violently lift the machine and shake it - Wow! No wonder their machines don't work properly. On top of that one of the workers tried to make my 14 year old stop playing because I wasn't right next to him
If you're a kid of the 80's or 90's, you'll thank yourself for hitting up Flashback. So many killer games, it's hard to pick a favorite (or 10), but the Rush pinball machine sealed the deal for me (long live The Professor ??).
Excellent selection of vintage arcade games and classic pinball machines with something for everyone. Took a star away as more than a few machines were inoperative but that's understandable given the scarcity or spare parts. Place has the vibe of a genuine 80's arcade, dark and authentic. Highly recommend to anyone familiar with the arcade scene in the 80's or 90's.
I loved bringing my grandkids. We had a blast!
For $12 a person you have unlimited play all day! This place is super fun with lots of games to choose from. I was also impressed with how well the games were maintained- I did not see a single game that was out of order!
Great mix of arcade and pinball machines. Everything was clean, only a handful of machines weren't working. They do sell chips and bottled drinks if needed. Lobby is very small with a couch if you don't want to pay while you wait.
The place has been update and they have a lot more newer games. Still felt like 1\4 of the machines were down... But my son and i had a good time playing for a few hours and the newer games were more enticing to him than the old school ones.
i love the rhythm games section with ddr, groove coaster, and pop n? music
Really fair price for a whole lot of fun. A nice hidden gem in Murfreesboro.
This place is great. Pinball games and all those old school machines you loved.
Flash back arcade, is amazing! I took my family of 5 we stayed for 3 hours and wanted to stay more! My wife and I played our favorites from our youth, Pac-Man and Space Invaders. We played newer games with our kids. We even had our kids playing with each other. It was worth the cost!
Friendly staff, wide selection of games, not super busy, and clean. Honestly wish we had more places like this around. Super fairly priced. Will def be coming back.
This really is an awesome place.. great for parents and kids.. arcade games from every decade and pinball.. you can't beat the price and the owners are wonderful and knowledgeable.
My wife and I moved to this area a year ago and this place is by far the greatest destination we have found. I love the nostalgia and feel of the old school games. The pinball selection is awesome. I love that you pay one price and play for hours. I wouldn't change a thing great arcade! Some machines do need maintenance but not a deal breaker for me.
Great place to go on a hot afternoon! I will definitely go back
They now accept cards! Cash is best, though. Flashback has a Good atmosphere. Game handles stay clean. Two music games next to each other makes it hard to play. ?????
This place is like riding a time machine back into the times where arcade games were more challenging. I really enjoyed my retro gaming experience and would love to go back again!
Always a fun place with the best selection around. BUT, there was a significant quality decline / multiple maintenance issues noted at my last visit. The following games were not functional at all: Tempest Kangaroo Paperboy Wrestlefest Rampage Tapper Dragon?s lair 2 Marvel vs cap-com 2 Teenage mutant ninja turtles H2 overdrive These games had broken controls that rendered them unplayable: Tron Mad Planets Double Dragon Robotron A couple more were playable but severely diminished: Q Bert - no sound Shinobi-
Loved this spot! Like 98% of the games are on free play and for one price at the door you can jam out all day long.
Great arcade. There are a few cabinets and pinball that don't work. But the overall experience was great. Staff is also very kind.
Excellent place to spend the afternoon. Loads of games to choose from.
Huge selection of vintage and some current arcade games that will have you playing for hours!! One flat rate purchases access to just about all the games except for a few! As someone who grew up in the early 90s and went to arcades on the weekends it feels like stepping into the past and enjoying it all again!! Love coming here!!!
Awesome variety, most free after the cover charge. Great row of pinball machines (my favorite).
Great old school pinball and video games. Reminded me of my youth in the early 1980s. A true flashback.
I didn't know what to expect when I came here but I am glad we came. It is $15 per person and you can play all day. They have plenty of old school arcade games as well as new ones. All the games are free once you pay the admission fee. We played Pac man 4 player, basketball shoot out, ninja turtles, and Tomb Raider. I don't know how long we were there but I know we got more than enough games in. They give you wrist bands so you can leave and come back.
Great place for family or date...especially if you like all the throwback games. Facility is clean and well kept, including bathrooms. Bring cash! Only 4 stars due to issues reading credit cards and plans to go back to "cash only" in the near future.
Premier arcade, that's family friendly, operated by a master engineer who dedicates himself to bringing in and professionally restoring original video games from the 80's and 90's. Great customer service. Owner is servicing and updating games continuously on site. Quality atmosphere, carpet, and facilities are Mint. Kids ages 6 and up will love this place. Serves food, cold drinks, all you can play just 15 bucks.. All games are grouped by style..ie: racing, classics, shooters, sports, fighting, then pinb
This arcade's been around for nearly a decade but really replicates that old arcade feel. They've even got some great rhythm games with a fan pointing right at DDR. Felt awesome.
I've been to many arcades in my lifetime but this is my all time favorite. All the machines were in perfect shape. They have a great mix of newer and older classic games. Several of the newer games cost 2-3 dollars a play at some of the big chain operations. We went on a Thursday and stayed for about 4 hours. We definitely got our moneys worth. We had so much fun we brought some of our sons classmates the following week. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. We also found there was a laser tag nex
Husband wanted to go?.i Had to pay even tho I wasn't playing any games. Waste of money
"Flashback" is the perfect name! As an '80s kid, it's like a trip down memory lane. Great mix of new and old games. $15 wristband gets you unlimited plays for most games. My 10 y.o. son loves it. Highly recommend ??
If you like video arcade then is a nice place to go 15$ will get you in the door with unlimited play you get an arm band that you can leave go eat and come back to play more as long it is in the same business day
If you love arcades you'll love this place, the selection of pinball machines was awesome. They have some new arcades but if you're nostalgic then you'll enjoy the older games they have too. It brought me back!
Took my kids this past weekend--it was our first time there, and we had an absolute blast! $15 for unlimited play is a steal! It's clean, though a tad dark, and there are some basic concessions available--drinks and chips. I've heard rumors they will let you leave and come back the same day, though we didn't try this ourselves. Most of the games appeared to be working, though a few of the 'gun' games only had one working gun. They had a nice selection of new games and many more older ones (Galaga, Cent
Nice spot to come to. 12 dollars a person u good
I go here a couple of times a year. My aging eyes can only take so much abuse but it's a great time. $15 a person gets you an all day pass. Come and go as you please. 30+ pinball machines. Probably 100 or more arcade cabinets ranging from golden age to retro to modern era. Snacks and drinks are available at reasonable prices and they are allowed on the floor. You have to see it to believe it.
We had fun! Got lots of tickets in a relatively short time! Traded tickets for really cool stuff!
A old fashioned mostly arcade! I went here with my boyfriend I loved it we spent only 30$ and they were having a car show outside too!
A really cool place to relax and have fun. The kids love going here for birthday parties. And a really good value. Lots of pinball machines and old arcade games mixed in with some newer racing and co-op shooting games.
Great atmosphere was like a real arcade from when I was young. I played pinball while my son played games. Nice blast from the past great customer service too. A+ 2023 update : price is now 15$ each and they have added some games.
This place is pretty cool and super cheap, only a few bucks a person. They have a lot of the newer and older games and a bunch of pinball machines. Definitely a cool place to visit if you're nearby.
Excellent little arcade. Lots of various big time arcade games and a pretty good selection of pinball machines ranging from 1979 to the present. Pins are mostly left off and players turn them on as needed.
Great experience for all ages!!! Great price!!!
This place is amazing. I didn't know anything like this existed anymore. $12 for all day unlimited play. I brought my 12 year old and his friends to see what real video games were. They absolutely loved it. You could easily spend hours here. Excellent place, not too crowded, and really friendly folks. I highly recommend this place.
Extremely fun, my favorite had to have been the pinball game ?Attack from Mars? and I also enjoyed the basketball game. For $15 and you have an all day pass, would FOR SURE recommend to anybody. 10/10 for Flashback Arcade!!
What an amazing place! My husband and I take the kids here every so often on the weekends and we end up spending a few hours there without even realizing it. Tons of different games, new and old, that everyone can enjoy. Plus you pay a flat fee, get a wrist band, and you can come and go as you want on that one day. That's great if you want to go get something to eat, as they don't allow outside food or drinks inside. If you haven't tried this place out yet you definitely should soon.
What a blast! There are arcade machines for every interest and skill level, from pinball and retro cabinets to modern shooters like Halo. All of the machines are clean and clearly well-maintained. For the price, you definitely get your money's worth if you enjoy ANY kind of arcade gaming.
Ben going here since I was little and the staff is great and it's cheap, only 15 bucks for unlimited play it's great ????
Great arcade nostalgic games. Some games weren't working. Otherwise, it was a great time.
This place is really cool. Like it has almost any kind of arcade game you could think of and it has a lot of pinball games. I didn't get to experience the owners but I did get to talk to the owners father that was running the place and he's pretty cool guy. It's a really cool atmosphere. Tons of things you can do. Multiplayer games. Single player. I mean they got pretty much everything. The one time entry fee per visit and you can play any game you want besides games that give you physical prizes. Those are
I will say this place has STEPPED IT UP since the last time ive been here. $15 per person, they have a huge variety of arcade games, pinball machines, and even stuff like air hockey to 4 player pac-man. Bathrooms were nice and clean, you get a wrist band and can come and go as you please throughout the day. 100% recommend going here. And the man behind the counter was so nice!
We heard someone talking about this place so we looked them up online. We live an hour away but thought we'd drive and check this place out. Sssooo happy we did. We will definitely be going back again!!!! Great place to go spend the day with family of all ages and friends. $12 band for all day. Come and go as you please. Very few machines take money to play...the $12 band covers most of the games...press play and let the fun begin. Very clean and very friendly employees. Thank you to the owners for giving u
Love it! 12$ to play all day is a great deal. If you love retro games you'll love it and even if you like new games they have some newer ones like a tomb raider 4 person shootem up or injustice. They also have a little section dedicated for people who like Asian games mostly rhythm games but they're still really fun to play.
Great classic arcade! Place is clean and kept at a nice cool temperature. A bit loud, but that's to be expected. Great flat rate price to play all day, which I feel like I could do very easily. Ill definitely be stopping by every time I come to Nashville.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.”
