Customer Reviews

This place is Awesome. We used our GetOutPass which is a Must have with kids. Didn't know they had Mini Golf. Very helpful staff.. Paige was Amazing and Very Accommodating

I saw this place on a Google search and I brought my son for Father?s Day and we had a blast! The mini golf in the back was a great way to start off our time and the staff was very friendly and helpful!! I'm really glad I stopped by!!!

Me and my boyfriend had a wonderful time! Paige was super amazing and very helpful! Very sweet girl and super fun games, would definitely come back again! 10/10 :D

I had my grandson?s birthday party here and we had a great time. The host and staff were very friendly and helpful. I really enjoyed our experience! The games were fun and there was a good variety of games as well. It looks small but it's not once you walk around and see all the games to play! The prizes are were great too!

Our 5 year old twins had an unexpected blast at the arcade! Great service and kindness from the staff (Jesus knew his stuff and kept us good the whole time), clean games and consuls, we saw nothing that was broken. They had a fan so us parents could stay cool. We will be returning!

Fun place to spend the day. The staff was really helpful and friendly.

Mia was really helpful. She also let us keep our stuff from other stores behind the counter so no one stole our stuff. 10/10 will definitely be coming back eventually

I took my 6 year old daughter and she had a blast!!! Everything was so easy to use! The customer service was also top tier!! Kane was extremely helpful, nice, and knowledgeable!

We hosted our sons 7th birthday at Ka-Ko Jo's and it could not have been a better experience! Sean, the owner, greeted us right away along with Mia, our host for the afternoon to give us the rundown and answer any questions. Mia set up our dessert, goodie bags, etc and guided birthday guests to mini golf allowing me to relax and greet parents. She was a stellar host and stayed with the kids through out the party; helping with golf, games, exchanging tickets for prizes, or whatever they needed. All party

Kane was great with customer service and explained all my questions thoroughly. 10 out of 10 customer service.

Super fun and not packed, we had so much fun playing the games! No issues at all. Very fun

Cameron is very friendly and has great customer service! It's a nice spot and kids friendly

We had our daughter?s 7th birthday party here and it was great. Mia, our birthday host, was amazing. She helped with set up, tear down, passing out food and drinks, I've never seen a venue?s staff as engaged with the party as Mia was with us. The arcade was a big hit as was the mini-golf. The variety of options for the kids to do made it a very successful party and very reasonably priced!

Free Putt Putt for Fathers Day and double our money for credits. Pretty cool you do that for Fathers. We all hit some rings on the claw game for some big wins. Great place to kill some time in the area before we hit the theater.

Mia was very nice with great customer service. She's so full for energy and happiness, just great place to take in your kids during the week! Thank you Mia for all your help!

Good games and friendly staff! Just went for fun and we enjoyed most of their games. We had an issue with one of the games but the attendant solved it quickly and even refunded the credits we put into it! We didn't take advantage of the putt-putt, but we still had a great time. Definitely coming back soon!

Took 5 kids here, ranging from teen to 8 years old, and they had a ton of fun! The service was great from everyone and Mia was really sweet to all the kids. Fun for the whole family!

Paige and Mia are awesome!!! They gave me and my daughters an amazing experience! They made it real hard to leave this place...thank you all so much!

Paige was amazing and SO HELPFUL. My girls had a GREAT TIME!

Gary is absolutely amazing. Everytime we go in he is always so kind and genuine. Always greets us no matter if he is helping a customer or not. Just the type of person you want in an environment like that. Always a pleasure to play there. Probably there once a week and he is always cheerful as can be.

We had my son's birthday party there. It was super fun. There was a host for the party so the grown-ups just got to sit around and talk and our kids had mountains of fun. ??

Fun little spot to burn some time with the littles on a hot day. $40 for 2 rounds of golf and about 45 mins in the arcade

Great place to enjoy a family night, clean & no problems with anything

Awesome customer service! Clean area for some fun!! Not pricey at all. Great place!!

Thank you for hosting such a great event for our program. You have a fantastic location to take the kids! We will definitely be back!

7/28/23-Kind of expensive for what you get. It was $10 per person for 18 holes and the 18th hole eats your ball so you can't play again. Other near by place for the same price let's you play many more games like Kennedy where they have 3 different courses and the courses don't eat your ball and you can play as much as you like. Then there was the heat. It was super hot and they need to turn up the air or get more fans going. They only had one going near the end. It was so hot that it could actually be a dan

We had the best experience playing today! Mini golf was a blast and they had a great selection of games to play. From the moment we came in, Gary, the manager, was so inviting and helpful. We will definitely be back!

Staff is super friendly and always willing to help. Mia and Jesus are especially helpful.

They beg for reviews just so you can get a few points. That's the only reason they have five stars. Other than that this place is overpriced. They go through employees and management like crazy. I'm starting to think it has something to do with the owner. One of the employees was telling me they think he's racist And just a little bit sexist I would avoid this place at all cost.

It was a fun experience, and I was able to play a lot more games than I thought I would be able to with My Son. also, we were able to get some cool little toys with his tickets. Cheapest card is 30.

Mia and Jesus were very helpful and were very nice. Loved chatting with them.

Amazing customer service! They went above and beyond to make sure my family had a great time!

Ash is very kind and attentive since the moment we walked in! Had an awesome time!

Came for a birthday party and had so much fun!! They were constantly checking on us to make sure we were okay. Great place!

The staff were very nice and friendly definitely recommend coming here!

Gary welcomed us with a smile and amazing hospitality. Cameron was also helpful when fixing the very cool, unique bowling game. My husband had a great time.minj golfing and playing games while knowing Gary would take great care if we needed anything.

Was very fun and inviting! Great family atmosphere, and very nice and helpful staff! I would prefer this place over Chuck E Cheese any day of the week.

Thank you to the wonderful staff, especially Mia! She was very friendly and helpful!

Great place, Fun, Clean, and the manager Gary is super nice great customer service 10/10 would come back again

I had my sons bday party here today and I must say I had one of the most attentive hosts named Cameron and I also had the pleasure of meeting the owner of this arcade and I can't stress enough how accommodating and how friendly both the host and the owner were. I definitely will be coming back to have even more family friendly fun!

Paige and Kane were fabulous! Yall are fantastic...and this place was so much fun! Son had a blast

Fun arcade with lots of claw games that actually let you win. The minigolf area was kind of cramped but it was still a good time.

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.”

Why are arcade prize games so exciting to play?

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.
