Customer Reviews

This place is great. There's a setup for almost any game you can think of, and the owner does whatever he can to accommodate your needs. The 1-star reviewer is just an asshole because the COD community is very toxic.

We had a fantastic time at the gaming lounge with our son and baby. The place was incredibly neat and clean, with comfortable seats and a wide selection of games to choose from. The snacks were a nice touch too! What stood out the most was the friendly and helpful owner, Mohamad, who made sure we had everything we needed for a great gaming experience. Highly recommend this spot for gamers of all ages

Had so much fun with my family. Mohammed was very kind and helpful.

My son really enjoyed it he and I got to play an amazing game called formula one

The best place to game at, crazy fast internet speed, comfy couches, plenty of amazing games. My favourite is definitely the guitar hero/rockband rig. Even got to win a free week pass with the awesome challenge they held for rock band. The owner is also very chill, overall great person.

Great place to sit and relax while gaming with friends. Came here to try it out and was really happy with the vibe. They got comfy recliners and lots of snacks to buy from.

Confused guy couldn't set up a basic match in COD. Wasted my day waiting for the game update which they should have done earlier. Total joke. Won't come back.

Can't wait to try this gaming lounge!

Super dope! Great spot to bring a group of friends to all game together ??

Went here with mu mom and brother a while ago, it was great!

Really awesome owner with a great selection of games

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.”
