Customer Reviews

Our whole family had a blast here. It appears pretty modest when you first enter, but once you get into all the food and drink offerings, and the wide variety of games available, you can make a fun evening for very little money. We spent less than $40 for six people, and this included snacks and drinks. Skee ball is allllll the way in the back and it's worth heading over to. Excellent date spot or family outing!

Great place for the whole family and they have delicious drinks! The games are reasonably priced and all types. You can spend hours here and have a blast! My husband and plan on having many date nights here on adults only night! I've literally been waiting my whole life for something like this to come to Ozark!

I usually love this place with having a drive through Boba station which is very convenient! I noticed that they changed the size of their Boba cups, the cups used to be a very nice size for the price. It was worth paying 5.50$, but they changed the size and made them smaller! your Boba is great and convenient and you have great customer service, but my question is why is the price still the same? I understand that we are going through inflation right now but you guys basically cut it down in half in size

Great place to play some good old arcade games. Great place for birthday celebrations. They also have pool tables, a foosball table, air hockey, pinball machines, claw machines, a shuffleboard, a photo booth, and a cornhole setup. The boba tea is pretty good, and the workers are very helpful. Definitely worth checking out.

Fun place to take my 13 and 14 year old boys. Nice mix of games (arcade, pinball, racing, shooting, claw machines). Unfortunately several of the games were not working and a couple are our quarters. Overall a good time.

Don't waste your time or money. It,s super run down and a half the machines are out of order or they steal your money. One of our party managed to win a stuffed animal in the claw machine. It had a hole in it and looked like a kids OLD toy. When trying to address money lost the employee just says "sorry" maybe put another in. Also, the health department needs to pay them a visit as I witnessed multiple violations when ordering boba for the 4 kids we had with us.

We had a birthday party there, which we had to reschedule once due to snow and ice (one of the hazards of winter birthdays). The staff was very accommodating and friendly. Games were relatively low priced, and coffee was good.

The staff was incredibly sweet and very helpful with the menu. Tons of boba options. 10/10 would recommend!

Had a blast at Quarters Arcade! So many different rooms with all different games, will be make it a habit coming back!

This was a lot of fun. They had a bunch of games and stuff to do so I never got bored. Some games were out of order but most the good ones worked. And if you try to use one that doesn't say out of order but it is, they'll give you a refund. I recommend going if you're near by.

This is just a happy place! The machines are priced well and there is a lot to do. Even if you don't have quarters or just want to try the boba tea when they start that, there's giant Jenga, giant connect four and a whole room of board games to play! There is hand sanitizer in every room and plenty of seating. This place rocks socks, no joke.

Some games are broke down, drinks and food are a bit pricey, but drinks are absolutely to die for! Good to take three of my kids to chill and have fun together.

Fantastic! They've got great games, and nice staff. Had some of their boba at the craft fair, and it's great! So excited for them to have it at the arcade!

Just discovered this place today! Absolutely the best place to take my whole family!!! Precious staff and great games and great seating throughout. We will be coming back every week!!!

Good atmosphere with a friendly staff, a little underwhelming on game selections, however. Also no ticket/prize counter, which didn't matter to me but might to other people.

Great games, prices, and Boba Tea! A great way to spend a cold Saturday with the kids or a fun date night.

Fun place for all ages, lots of arcades in many rooms, also has a free board game room, and various other free games for when you run out of quarters ??

Came here with some friends and literally stayed almost all day lots of games and Nice staff. Would recommend and definitely coming again.

Very fun arcade. A lot of options. Has some newer games but I really enjoyed some of the classics.

Super fun place with tons of games vintage and new...including pool tables, dart boards, golf game and pinball machines.

Fun place, lots of video games, other games, pool, and darts. Staff is friendly and helpful. Stop in and see them. Might see me there playing darts.

Many fun games to play and good boba and snacks. Owners are always nice and welcoming too.

Total classic arcade. Affordable for the family and the tea is awesome!! Not to mention they're pizza pretzel are amazing!!

Got the pomegranate boba with pineapple tea. It's so delicious. A bit sweet, but satisfying

Wonderful place. Nice staff. Some of the games did not work properly though.

Love this place! I always have fun with my girlfriend and THEY HAVE BOBA! All in all a great 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.”
