Fun place for kids. There's a good size arcade laser tag. The Go Karts are for all ages with different speeds.
I hosted a daytime party here this past weekend and all of the adults and kids had a BLAST!!! The customer service by the manager Victor was absolutely phenomenal. He made sure everything went smooth for us. He came out onto the patio to make sure we were doing okay and adjusted the fans. I asked if I could give him a tip for his service and he declined. I asked to speak to a manager to let them how much of an AMAZING job he was doing and he stated " I am the manager". I said well of course you are lol. I
What a great place! We were visiting from out of town and looking for something fun to do. This place fit the bill admirably! We came for the go karts which were fun- track was nice and the races were of a good length. They also had the best laser tag I have ever played. Great equipment, super fun layout with great atmosphere. They have an excellent selection of video games! Loved all the classics and a bunch of full size air hockey tables. We bought wristbands bands which allowed us unlimited karts, laser
Tons of Fun at Fair Prices *** This place surprised me. When visiting Houston I have driven pass this place maybe 100s of times and neve thought to stop by. A couple of friends and I decided to check this place out and we were surprised on how much we had.
Had a wonderful exciting weekend here for my daughter's birthday.
Great fun for my son who came to visit.
Small arcade room but it's fun. There's laser tag upstairs along with pool tables. The go karts are the main attraction. For 6 kids I paid $230-$300. Not bad at all!! Your kids will enjoy it. Please remember they have 2 parking lots so don't worry if you can't find a spot in front of door. Go to the other side of the track. Your car will be safe.
There is a bit of gas burning smell in the waiting lines - they should install some high power fans to disperse the smell. The inside of the arcade is frankly a little old and legacy The kart racing is fun, smooth and the bridge feature of the track is nice. Gave them 4 stars for the gas burning smell in the waiting lines.
Always a good time at this arcade-go karts. Prices are great and staff is very friendly! Arcade is clean and has great variety of games.
This place is a blast and I'll definitely go back. The staff is very friendly and the girl at the redemption counter was excellent. We played here for almost two hours and just had a great experience. The video games are very diverse and will fit just about anyone?s taste. The go cart track is a blast and you get plenty of track time for the money. Upstairs they have some pool tables and Air hockey. I have not tried the laser tag yet but intend to soon
Great place! Awesome variety of games! Place was very busy on a Saturday afternoon. Go-carts for all ages and speeds. The laser tag was my family?s favorite!! Will be back!!
I been coming to this go carts for years and I must say I am impressed. The employees are very kind and understanding. I notice they have more games and laser tag. Also a spot to eat or bring your food and chill. The track is updated. The rewards are pretty good and they offer a variety of snacks. Thank you go cart raceway for making my experience really awesome!!!??
Nice nostalgic place to visit. Go Kart track was cool. Many good old school arcades. Laser tag was a blast. Just a nice place to remind you of the good old days and sharing that with the new kids.
Really awesome place to just have fun. Go karts, and laser tag was super fun, all the throwback arcade games always fun to show our kids how we did it back in the day. Plus some friendly competition with newer games as well.
Pretty cool place to go ride go-karts. My daughter had a great time on the carts and playing some of the video games.
Came here & honestly most of the games don't work & hlf the ones that do work have a malfunction, the place was packed, so I figured everything will be guud, but honestly they are robbing ur money. Will NOT COME BACK!!!
Great for all ages! Came with hubby and twin 16 year olds. Had a blast. Family fun and affordable. Very well maintained all around too! We will be going more often!!
Not the cleanest place but has fun games, and some for smaller kids. Great place on a budget. Also has laser tag and a upstairs area for adults to play pool. Kart racing is great three options. Kids must be about 3 feet tall.
I booked a group party and had 2 hrs of unlimited go karts, laser and games. We also had a private corner with table set up, and brought our own pizza and cake. Jami was our care taker, she is an awesome person who was understanding and had great customer service skills. We had a great time with family members ages 3 to 77 doing different things (mostly go karts) for the allotted time. Thank you for making my daughter's bday party fun.
a fun place for friends gathering and get together! We had the tickets for all and spent 2-hrs here. Good memories ??
We have passed by this location multiple times and never actually visited. I decided to try this location out for our son's 10th birthday. Great decision! He had so much fun. Even my high schoolers had fun. It is deceptively small from the outside. Inside there are tons of fun arcade games, laser tag and go Karting. They do have vending machines for drinks and snacks. The packages are great deals and give the kids plenty of time for fun. Also there is great space upstairs, pool tables, air hockey, and a g
This is a great place to bring the kids. The games are fun and karts work. It's got some old classic games and new games. This is a older facility but it's I'm pretty well-maintained. They are renovating the upstairs to put a laser tag room in
Bought the kids the bands (1 hour and a half experience) and they had a blast dueling in laser tag, racing the Go-karts, and beating the "puck" out of each other in air hockey! Thanks for the summer fun! We will definitely be back again.
Theses people will take your money straight at 11 , if you ain't finish your game by time they closed , they will keep the money you spent. & My son was having fun till they turn it off ! Y'all should go to the one on Hempstead!! Half of their games was broken down ! I even paid for a game that broke. And still didn't complain but they turn off my son game while playing !! It was 11 not 11:01 !!!! ! Bad reviews bad reviews
A1. Instant Classic. Decent Track. Longer than you think. Great games. Atmosphere is a most on planned trips or random adventures.
Really fun place, definitely recommend if you haven't visited here
Fun event venue with go-kart racing, arcade and the super fun laser tag. The go-kart could have been better if they track time and laps to make it more competitive. But overall, a fun place!
Delightfully surprised by all that was offered by this location. Arcade for the little kids. Pool tables, air hockey, laser tag, and GO-KARTS for the big kids. (Even the littles could ride the Go-Karts with an adult). Super fun place.
Fun course ,but the upgraded carts weren't even offered to us,..would have been an easy upsell.
Great place Go kart is mix bag with performance Track is great
Been going here for years. Fun place. Always clean and most games usually work. Im neutral about the staff. My son was finally tall enough to drive. Good for him. Me too now I can finally try out the super kart since he can drive alone??.
Took the kids the other day and they absolutely loved it!! They had so much fun and I would definitely recommend for anyone looking for something fun to do! Staff were very friendly as well!
Decent gokart place with arcade games and prizes. A little over priced on the arcade games, some older games don't work right. The gokart track is on the small side but fun. $9, $10, and $14 go karts available. Nice uper lever patio for birthday parties. Bathrooms are small, two people at a time. Parking is always an issue though. The crowd that frequents here is a little on the rough side. Marijuana scent is common.
My son loves this place! The Go-Kart rides are very reasonable on pricing, he loves playing the Jurassic arcade game! They also have pool tables and a great selection of classic games. Keep up the good work
Nice play for go carts arcade games laser tag pool air hockey etc. very busy on weekends. Parking can get crowded.
I played laser tag for the first time, I had a blast. A little soar now but it was worth it, a great work out.
Fun family day out and reasonably priced. I enjoyed the outdoors go karting and the arcade games.
It's been almost 18 yrs since we've both been here we had so much fun and it's didn't cost an arm and a legs to do it lol ??
I've gotta say that the staff at Go-Kart raceway really made the visit for myself and my 6 & 7 year old boys special. All my boys wanted to do was ride the go karts and are under the height requirement, but the front desk person (lady) helped advise us on how to obtain tickets and that if we didn't use them all with the go karts that they could be redeemed for games. To ride the karts I had to leave one of my boys in line and take turns driving each one of my boys through the tracks. Not only did the staff
Is a good place to go, if you like the old arcades, they have it at 0,25$ per game
I had too much fun for a reasonable price. Might even take the kids next time????
Very family kids friendly environment, so fun for everyone
I've been coming here since I was 10 with my grandfather. I love seeing how far it has come before all the upgrades it was still a fun place to go to. With all the upgrades it's 10x better they now have laser tag. Their prices for lazer tag & super karts is $8, very reasonable & doesn't cost an arm and leg. The prices for the games is also reasonable & they don't cheat you out on tickets. They always have nice/friendly staff. I will continue to come here, and bring my little girl as she gets older. LOVE THI
small game selection. slow to load go karts. Staff is unhelpful. Better ones in the area like K1
My kid loved it, the place is clean, alot of vintage games ( I loved ??), the 2nd floor has air hockey and pool tables .... my kid favorite is the race track and go karts
Fun time! Great place for family fun.
Bad for business. Bad for parties. No communication in full details regarding ?daytime parties?. CAME FROM OUT OF TOWN with a group of 10. BUSINESS IS HORRIBLE don't recommend
Booked my son?s 10th birthday party here over a month ago and put down 4 times the required deposit. Went by yesterday( the party was today) to ask a couple more questions, look over the space again. When we arrived today at the appointed time, we began to set up. The manager, who I had spoken with when I booked the space a month ago and yesterday asked me if I had the space reserved. I asked him if he didn't recall talking to me yesterday (it was strange. I asked him when we would receive our wristbands a
t was a very tiring day for me as we waited all day to get the load
Had a great experience!!! My friend told them that his phone flew out of his pocket they didn't give an attitude or hesitate they went and found it. Thanks everyone is really nice
I've been coming here since the late '90s. Now, I'm bringing my kid to experience what I had as a child. I love how there are still games from my childhood. And the racetrack is still the best in town. It's a great place for family fun as well as a date night idea for a few rounds of pool.
I bought my family and was having a great time till it was time for the prizes . Once we got helped by the manager on duty . She had an attitude to begin with then lost our card says she set it down with over 2000 in points and about $25-35 still on it to play. My husband and I were already getting frustrated due to the fact that she was getting an attitude and not being able to help us then accused us of taking the card and had my nephew empty his pockets multiple times thinking we took the card. We were o
The place was clean, just went in for one go-kart race. Had a blast.
A community staple. Always great to hangout at this place.
Friendly staff and fun environment. Restrooms really clean and spacious. Snacks available from vending or at counter. Karts are fun, two seaters available for parents with small kids. Nothing to fast, something fun to do to entertain little ones. Plenty of parking. A variety of classic and modern arcade games including digital tickets to win on certain prize games.
Fair pricing and it's always a good time
Just visited this place. The supposed manager on duty was extremely dismissive to the fact that one of the workers ignored our entire group. She proceeded to give a sarcastic apology because I demanded it. This place needs better management and a huge lesson in customer service.
Great experience...very friendly and well trained staff. The owner was extremely nice and attentive. Place is very clean and all of the games and go carts were is good working order. Laser tag was crazy fun!I will definitely be bringing my kids back. It is a great locally owned business that the owners put a ton of care into. Go have a good time...
Super awesome place, clean, small but plenty of fun, crew friendly and welcoming
Great experience. Kids loved every minute
Great family fun. No concession stand so eat before you arrive! There are vending machines and a taco stand next door.
Great time thanks Saul for all your help!
This place is not concerned with operating the go kart environment with safety in mind. The microphone they use makes it sound muffled and you can't hear them, grown adults and children alike will slam into the back of your Kart without regard or consideration and on the road they will actively slam into you and your kids while the employees do nothing to stop it. The clientele are low class I would avoid this place unless you're into surrounding yourself and your children with sketchy adults and their ske
The place was nice but we drove an hour for my daughters birthday to find out if you have long hair you can't ride the go karts .The cashier is going to say they just changed the policy today never will I go back there !
This place was chill. Even once it got a bit crowded everyone was respectful to one another. Diverse consumers. Diverse staff. I would consider this place down to earth. Most of the machines were in good working order. Staff may look unapproachable but once approached they were super friendly and helpful. Would recomend this place for a good time with real people. Would not recomend to someone who is looking for high class or high tech. Beaten down flooring is part of the ambiance, old and new games, theres
Nice little place with pool tables, arcade games, laser tag and go kart, all at the same place.
It's so fancy but you can take kids there for arcade games.
Bad experience, women was with attitude after she was done cleaning a Machine , she assists me and told me my kid can't ride and when we did measurement my son was at the blue line and said he wasn't . When I ask for manager she said she was the manage . Poor customer service . Just lost out money for you rudeness !
What a disappointment! This was our first time here for a birthday and they gave us a ?deal? for $45 ?unlimited go karts, unlimited laser, and $10 arcade games? in an hour and a half! So technically it's not unlimited!!!! The girl that worked there never said the arcade credit was also timed so we lost $10 credits in 10 cards=that's $100!!! We save the cards for last and learned the credit was expired and no one can do anything about it! So if you come here make sure you read all the fine print cause they d
super fun and affordable - fumes were horrible. my eyes and nose burned while go-karting and continued to burn slightly even after leaving. i didn't find it unbearable though - wouldn't consider it a "race" since people start at different times - super bumpy. wasn't a bad thing but took a while to get used to it - employees didn't speak much but were really helpful - different types of karts available so my sibling (middle schooler) was able to ride her own kart solo - kart would randomly slow down and spee
One of my kids' favorite places to go for fun. Great games and they are always looking to evolve while maintaining our tried and true games. #jonothanmcreynoldscamehere UPDATE: Still an enjoyable outing and experience. The customer service I always empathize with because of all the families, kids, and stress of running this business but today there was a young woman who showed particular kindness.
Nice clean affordable fun.
I've been there for parties before but today was my first time hosting a party there & loved it. My daughter & our guest all had a blast. A lot of our guest talked about throwing a party there themselves. Definitely will be back!
First time here. Very impressed with the staff. They were very friendly. It was a bit crowded, but that was to be expected since it was the last weekend of spring break. The lines were long but they moved fairly quickly. My 2 teen boys and I had a great time. We will be returning.
We attended a birthday party here with our 7 year old son. I'm not the biggest fan of the area where this is located, but once we were there it was a pleasant surprise. The whole place was clean, the games were all working, the staff were present and for the most part engaging. The go karts were cool, but there is only one track and the "fast" go karts didn't seem to be much faster than the normal ones. The pleasant surprise was laser tag. The area was really neat, the equipment worked well, and it was a t
My family and I drove two hours to come and have a family day. The staff was friendly and we had lots of fun. Surprisingly, the laser tag was our favorite. With only 5 people, the space was perfect and the equipment wasn't wore out. It was so in great condition. The pool tables have definitely seen better days and the go karts were just ok. We would still come back though for another family fun day!
Took my son for his 12th birthday first time here great prices. Awesome staff very friendly. Great customer service. I didn't get the girls name but she explained the prices and all that. She did awesome. Clean environment. Will be coming back more
Fun raceway for small kids. Didn't really like that all the games are some random dollar amount. One game could range from $0.70-1.50 was the highest I saw. Should be a set amount per game. Parking was a little rough and was packed the Saturday we went. The gaming area was a little dirty but not too bad. My kids liked it.
Went here for my first date and it was amazing had lots fun with my friends too
Great wholesome fun! Go carts were a blast. Lots of families around, safe and fun.
Awesome Experience, Great Family Friendly Environment... Highly Recommend.. #MrKempt
Very avid and active fun area. Many family like venues and fun arcaic gaming platforms. Once you have had your fill and fun they have sodas and water right close by or walk next door for some authentic Latin meals. Very rural and great location !
Lots of different games of varying levels and other things to entertain. Took my two teens and had a nice time. Wish the bathrooms were bigger and could accommodate more than a couple people at a time though for being such a busy place
Super packed with teens on a Saturday night. Guess it's the hang out spot but my kids enjoyed themselves
We love this place.....kids want to go everyday
This place is a blast for all age groups. We had 3 year to 65 year olds riding the go carts. No lines long lines. Also noticed them cleaning everything all the time in arcade.
Friendly staff. Go kart and laser tag times are really good compared to what you might think. Really enjoyed it.
Great go-karts and games. Their laser tag is a two level set-up, which makes it more fun. They also have two seater karts, so you can take your smaller kids for a fun ride. The track is fun, especially when there are more drivers on the course.
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.”
Yes, pinball tables in arcades remain a blast. Their hands-on, skill-driven gameplay delivers a thrill digital games can’t match, blending nostalgia with modern flair. Newer tables from Stern and Jersey Jack feature LCD screens and themes like Avengers or Stranger Things, keeping things exciting. Arcades are seeing a pinball resurgence with vibrant scenes and tournaments like IFPA events drawing crowds. Though less common than video games, pinball’s tactile charm and community vibe make it a standout arcade experience in 2025.
Absolutely, retro games in arcades remain a thrilling draw in 2025! Classics like Pac-Man, Space Invaders, and Street Fighter II offer simple yet addictive gameplay, blending nostalgia with timeless challenge. Modern arcade cabinets often feature crisp displays and restored controls, enhancing the experience. These games thrive on quick reflexes and strategy, with vibrant pixel art and iconic soundtracks that spark joy. Arcades host tournaments and leaderboards, fostering a lively community. While modern games dominate, retro titles provide a unique, accessible thrill that keeps arcades buzzing.
Yes, rhythm games in arcades are a vibrant hit in 2025! Titles like Dance Dance Revolution and Beatmania deliver high-energy fun, blending music, movement, and precision. Modern machines boast vivid displays, booming sound systems, and diverse song libraries, from J-pop to EDM. They challenge reflexes and rhythm, with competitive leaderboards and tournaments fostering a lively community. Arcade dance floors are regularly packed, proving rhythm games’ immersive, physical thrill keeps them a standout in today’s gaming scene.
Arcade prize games are a thrilling highlight in 2025! Claw machines, skee-ball, and ticket-redemption games like basketball offer a rush of skill and chance, with rewards like plushies, toys, or electronics up for grabs. Modern machines feature vibrant lights, digital scoreboards, and responsive controls, amplifying the fun. The lively arcade atmosphere, with cheering crowds and buzzing energy, makes every win feel epic.
