Customer Reviews

We had a birthday party for an 8 year old at Outback Roos and the kids had an absolute blast. All the kids were smiling and having fun. The adults had a lot of places to sit and relax. The manager and party host went above and beyond to be sure we had a great time and had what we needed. They made special decorations for our party theme. They were the right amount of involved but not pushy. CJ was our party host and he was very personable and orchestrated a bounce house competition which the kids loved. The

Such a fun place to take your family they have something for everyone . Very clean and staff was so friendly and helpful. Can't wait to come back definitely recommend!!

This place is awesome. I will take my kids here every weekend! They love it so much! Much bigger than the old place.

Absolute wonderful place! Let's kids be kids, I get the feeling it's not just a job but they have so much joy giving kids memories. Can't wait to return. New joiners Rosalie & Logan :)

Fantastic place for the kids to get their energy out when the temp dips. Had big and little kid areas, a party room, quiet room, and lounge for the parents.

Fantastic place to take children! My Grandson, almost 4 yrs old, and my Granddaughter, almost 2 1/2 yrs old, enjoy each bounce house. Many bounce houses to experience. Tables and chairs are available to enjoy snacks they offer or bring your own. The staff is great!

We spent 4 hours here. Its a fun place. Entry was $13 for ages 3-12. There were a few things I think if they tightened up it would be better. Make sure the kids know the rules, my little guy got ran over while we were there bc kids zooming around. They have a place specifically for 3 and under and the older faster rough kids were zooming through making it dangerous for the smaller kids. Wish they had someone on that side to keep the older ones out. Lastly they have a sock rule but there were still kids with

I absolutely loved it here for my kids! For being a weekend it was not packed. We had a birthday party and our bouncer CJ was beyond amazing! We will be coming back for future parties and just regular bounce time! Also the price was reasonable for all that they do, I had to do nothing the room was already decorated for us and that was such a relief.

We recently had a birthday party here (May 10th, 2025) and had a wonderful time for my 8-year-old! She had about 10 friends there and we were able to bring things that we wanted, such as food, decor (they did 95% of the decor including tablecloths, ballons, plates/forks/napkins, Ect.) and anything else we really wanted! Roo (their mascot) came in and took pictures with the kids too which they loved! I would highly recommend them for a party (when I was cleaning up, I was told multiple times to stop "cleanin

My son and his friends had a blast at his birthday party. It's definitely more affordable and they set up and clean up for you, all you have to do is show up. It's also nice you can bring your own food and drinks in. All the staff was very nice and helpful!

My kids love love love it here, I think one of my favorite things about Outback Roos is watching all the kiddos interact with one another and hear my kiddos say they made new friends. I always have a hard time getting out before close time because my babies never want to leave LOL. We love when ROO visits aswell!

A fantastic spot for kids! The staff is welcoming, and the environment is perfect for little ones. It's spacious, climate-controlled, and ideal for fun. I highly recommend it!

Loved coming here with my 5 kids! They want to come here every weekend! The staff was friendly and the space and activities were perfect! Many more family nights will be planned here

I love that they opened back up! It's very clear that the owner cares and has a vision to make it even bigger and better. Great place for the kids! Thank you ?? We will be frequenting often.

Affordable place for the whole family to have fun. Axe throwing is a definite must try! Staff is very friendly also which makes the overall experience very pleasant ??

We went for the first time today and my two year old laughed and giggled for two straight hours, just about. We never made it to the old location but this one is great. Very conveniently located and a great price!

CJ AWSOME GUY HE WAS VERY HELPFUL WITH MY KIDDO WITH ASTHMA ?? VERY FRIENDLY STAFF AND THE MANAGER AS WELL BRANDA VERY PLEASED WITH THE EXPERIENCE

!! This jump place is a heaven sent - in an area with not much for the kids to do!! So grateful i found this place!!

The price is outrageous!!!! No sibling discount. $30 for 2 kids. No one can afford that. WE WILL NOT BE BACK UNLESS THE PRICES CHANGE.

Went here for my niece?s birthday and the staff was so helpful and attentive with setting up!

Kids had a blast! Nice family oriented business. Bring the kids for hours of fun !

Lots of bounce houses, staff is fantastic and great with the kids, clean facility and overall great environment, kids had so much fun

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.”
