Customer Reviews

A fun place to go with the kiddos on a rainy Hawai?i day! Small facility but several different games to play. Staff is a bit rude which isn't particularly great for a fun center, but the games are great.

Super fun when funfactory do double your money days it helps big families like us. An we can go more often if not we gotta go less..but I think they need to do double your money days everyday. They'd make more business ..and.also I think they need more games. Like how. Dave and busters does in Honolulu. .? ?? ?

A truly wholesome experience. Staff is incredibly nice. Fun games. Great atmosphere. Love their honor roll program.

Celebrated my son's birthday in the Kukui Grove location this year, and it was awesome! Great for the kids to enjoy and makes it easy with an area to set up decorations, enjoy food, drinks and cake. Best place for kids of all ages.

Took my 1.5 and 3.5 year olds here over the X-mas holiday, staff was Amazing (capital A). My oldest was just shy of having the necessary tickets but was comped the last few and he came back with a beloved car (and my wife and I a beloved memory). Was the perfect place to get out of the rain right before dinner time and let the little ones run around. Thank you Fun Factory!

Clean, well-maintained, courteous attendants. Shout-out to the wonderful Janelle who was always happy to answer our questions or refill the tickets!

My son enjoys any of the Fun Factory he goes to. When we visit one of the places we have to go to.

Fun, clean, ac working, and rarely one gaming console not working. Super fun actually. You might as well get the vip card the first time. Trust me.

It is fun, but looks like introduction to gambling world! Should have more games where kids are active, and to take out those that casino have.

My grandchildren and have the best time! We go at least once a month!

Terrible me and my step siblings went there a few years ago and my step brother one 1000 tickets but the ticket machine broke and the guy didnt let him claim his tickets. I would not recommend

Kids and i absolutely love spending time at the Kapaa and lihue funfactory.

It was cool to take my toddler son. The toy broke as soon as we got in the car, so it feels like low quality stuff.

Great prices and a fun experience. The prizes are surprisingly cheap and the games the games are generous in tickets.

Small but fun. Kids had a great time and enjoyed their hard won treasures.

My granddaughter had a wonderful time and the men that were working were super nice

A lot of games, has a card system, was a lot of fun!

Easy party place. Just had to bring food and drink and they provide the entertainment for a fair price!

This was a great treat for the family. Games were awsome prizes were fantastic.

We had a great time!

Fun place for the whole family ????

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.”
