Went here with some friends last week. We had a pretty fun time. I just wish it wasn't so hot in there. Friends and I had to step out at one point to cool off. On the bright side, I beat all of them at air hockey. :)
My wife and I went on a little St. Patricks Day date. We spent 20 bucks and had over an hour of enjoyment. The new digital credit system was simple to use and convenient for play. No more fumbling around for tokens trying to feed them in before the timer runs out. Just tap and go. Now my only negative comment, I miss the physical reward tickets. This isn't unique to this establishment, its now the industry standard. My opinion is the lack of that physical reward is unfortunate but honestly a ?first world p
Don't waste your time coming to this dump. There is absolutely no staff whatsoever. I spent a lot of money here and when I tried to spend my points they wouldn't work. The machines were broken or something and because there were no staff I was never able to use my points. There is a limited variety of games and they are expensive.
Don't waste your money or time here. Every experience I have had has resulted in the machines breaking down or malfunctioning. The owners/operators of this facility are never here or are available to come fix the issue(s). You'd think they would care a little more with the amount of money this establishment brings in. Save your money and take your kids to a better arcade elsewhere.
This place is horrible. The token machine is broken and no one will fix it the quality of air is disgusting. The co-workers are not family friendly and always making disgusting jokes. Never take children here.
Terrible experience. Games were broken and no signs were placed to let anyone know. The prize machine wasn't working either. No employees were there to make repairs or answer questions. After two rings after calling, it began playing spam music Also, the card dispenser didn't work. My grandmother put 50 in with a debit card and it didn't give any card yet still accepted the payment. Wouldn't recommend.
Not to many of these left it's a fun and nice distraction
I took my grandchildren to this arcade two Fridays in a row. The ticket retreaval ( prize machine) did not work. Other children had the same experience. To call the number listed brings no result. Full mailbox. This is a total scam. Who owns/runs this? Why can't they be reached.I'm going to call the attorney generals office if I don't get a response!
This place is old-school But A deacent arcade the only issue for me is the guy is never their to give the big prizes
So much fun! We love the loadable cards it's much easier to manage then a hand full of coin especially for the little ones!
Really like taking our daughter here, great local place to go when you have some extra time. Always clean and updated. Hope they can re-open soon!
So when you need a employee no one is around lost money and no tickets in the game and I have a payout and the phone number that's on the website is wrong number
Fun place, old school 80s arcade.
place is amazing and really fun
Great place for kids of all ages
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.”
