Customer Reviews

Retro has been a great place for my child and his friends to play. It is nice to have somewhere for them to run/burn their energy especially when it's cold outside. They love jumping in the bounce house, the slides, and toddler town. We go at least a couple times a month and will play there half the day! Kathi the owner always checks to see how we are doing and if we need anything. My son has also done tumbling with kathi which was a great experience as well and hope to be able to attend in the future. -Cas

This place is amazing! Such a great throwback to the days when I was a kid but includes some newer things also! Glow in the dark arcade room that includes a putt putt area is my favorite part but there are many more things to enjoy. Go check this place out. Then throw a party there and they even have any event room. Theyre ready for almost everything!

RECOMMEND FOR PARTIES OR JUST A FAMILY DAY OUTING! Had a 7 year old?s birthday party here and it was a blast for kids and adults! Unfortunately the nerf war arena was replaced, but between mini golf, arcade and mystery escape rooms was plenty to do. *The arcade has a lot more coin then coinless options so bring lots of quarters!

Retro is always a nice place to visit. Our family loves to go there with company. There is a craft room, GlowGolf, Escape rooms, videos to rent, vintage video games, toddler area, buffet, snack bar, event venue and more. It's nice to have them in our small town. We always appreciate going there.

Nice space for kids to have a party. Heck it's fun for adults to have a party. Some classic games and and new ones, miniature golf all indoors and under black light, an escape room, and a Nerf arena. They have reasonable prices and an extremely pleasant staff.

For only $10 per person we played unlimited free video games and 18 holes of miniature glow golf for 2 hours! We didn't have to drive 45 minutes from home, nice to have a fun local place!

Inexpensive fun for the kids! Fairly new I think so some improvements can be made, and they did say they plan on it. They have a pay arcade and a free one. My kids loved the older games in the free section (pac-man, street fighter, air hockey) They played the other games but always flicked back to the other section. They have a section to use a VR headset, kids like that too. I would suggest putting some kind of cushioning, maybe bright pool floats (so they glow too!) around the edges of the wood in the VR

Very fun place. Indoor mini golf and an arcade! Also had movies there and tumbling. Some games were free to play, others cost $. Mini golf course was fun, very challenging.

I brought 6 eleven year old girls here for the afternoon and they had a blast! The owners are so welcoming and accommodating. We can't wait to come back!

This place was AWESOME ?? For our family get together From the minute we walked into the door till we walked out Dana , Lizzie & Nathan took very good care of us Mini golf & the escape room were fun Pizza and appetizers were dynamite ??????

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.”
