Customer Reviews

Delicious food and the best ice cream around! Tiger King flavor is my favorite. You definitely have to try this place!

The best people and the sandwich solely responsible for ruining Subway for me forever. Ice cream is top notch too! The only thing I wish is that you could tip on your card, so don't forget to bring a little cash to hand to the wonderful people working there!

We were in the area checking out caves and were recommended this spot to try out. I have to say this was one of the worst restaurants experiences I have had to date. The women behind the counter were stand-offish and rude to my wife and I. Upon entering one is met with an open floor plan and what seems to be a nice set of arcade type games. I was excited to check out a local business and was even more so when I began to look at the menu. I constructed my gameplan for a sandwich and walked up to the counter

The best ice cream! The sweetest kindest employees! Made to order sundes,shakes, floats. Served with a smile! They also have great sandwiches. The prices are reasonable also! 10 starts for this small town bussiness.. go have ice cream support our community bussiness ??

Fun Friendly atmosphere, yummy sandwiches with fresh ingredients at an affordable price! They can make you some amazing drinks too! I can't forget about the ice cream, Sammy scoops is delicious! So if you're looking for a fun place for food and entertainment, by the way they have an arcade room! A great stop after a day on the river check them out!

They have awesome sandwiches and great service. Their trivia night is super fun also!

Fun! Fresh! Friendly! The Sammy?s Scoops parlor was fantastic. HUGE single scoops, amazing flavors and at a great price! Plus plenty of cone/bowl options. There are arcade options as well as a couple of very nice pool tables. They also offer some pretty sweet Noel/ElkRiver swag you can't find anywhere else. Highly recommend stopping in!

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.”
