Customer Reviews

A great place for all your intimate needs. M.A.E.'s offers a wide variety of adult toys, lubes, massage oils, and movies, from every category. M.A.E.'s is perhaps the largest adult toy store in the CSRA. They also have a well stocked smoke shop. Ask about their military and dancer discounts.

Mae Video has a great variety of novelties and a nice size smoke shop. Prices are very reasonable and the staff are both friendly and helpful. I am definitely shopping here again!

The best place to go for any and all adult related products. They have thousands of items in stock, the staff knows what they're talking about and are some of the most friendly people I've ever met. Oh Yeah, They also have an excellently stocked smoke shop. Loved the place, it wasn't like what I expected out of an adult store. It was bright, clean, no creepy people hanging around. The parking was around back so it was complety private and there are lights and cameras everywhere so I felt completely safe.

Gimmie refunds -your product did not recharge

Used to love coming here and checking out the inventory until the two new girls got hired an have been in the last three times I gone an every time they have been unpleasant, give dirty looks an make me an my fianc? feel very uncomfortable. Please get the other women back she was nice an even made conversation, the women there now are very rude. Dislike will be going to another store

First time checking out this shop. I thought they were closed when I came in because all the signs said so, but the man in charge for the day quickly fixed that. They have a stunning variety of items in every category you can think of, even a lot of smoking items. Definitely will return in the future to try something new.

A very friendly understanding, and nonjudgmental staff. No rude or obnoxious people in the back?arcade? as everyone there follows the ?unwritten rules.? A peaceful and happy place for those, such as I, who have ?kinks.?

Hoping they repair the video booths..Nice to see the videos before you buy..

I walked in, and my shoes were sticking to the floor. There was trash all over the theatre room, and that floor was even stickier. No one wants to walk into a place for sex items, and see stuff like that, dude. Come on, clean up a bit.

Good place to get all your kinky needs! Even places product in a neat black bag! Awesome music too!

Will you be open through the holiday? Love to preview movies in arcade..Lots of privacy..

Make sure ur nice to the employee's because they will make up lies to have you banned for the store! imature and childish!

How do expect to do busyness if never answer the phone or get hung up on. BE AWARE

The other reviews of this store are inaccurate due to new management and new procedures,public safety is of most importance, not just the community but also the customer.Please use your own judgement.

DO NOT USE YOUR CREDIT CARD THERE!!! I DID NOW ONE MONTH LATER HAVE TO REPLACE BECAUSE IF FRAUD CHARGES. DO NOT TRUST THEM

Great little place back rooms are fun. Need to get some stress off go

Reasonable prices. Lots of variety. Not many up to date movies.

Great service and selections!!

Great friendly knowledgeable staff great place

This place is awesome!!!

(Translated by Google) I liked it, I want to come back and I hope someone wants to open a video with me. I'm 28 years old, I'm Mexican. (Original) Me gusto kiero Regresar y ojal? alguna persona ce anime aber un video conmigo tengo 28 A?os soy mexicano

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.”
