Customer Reviews

Owners are awesome and for them not to have everything set up there's already a great nostalgic variety of games. $10 for all day entry even if you leave and come back. Can't beat that!

Opening weekend. They're still in the process of finishing adding more games, a bar, and a back patio area. For it being limited capacity we had a great time. Crestview honestly has nothing for leisure outside of a moldy movie theater. I really hope the locals continue to support this place, because it has amazing potential. Will definitely be returning.

Fantastic place lot of fun games, I personally enjoy cruisin' the world and Blasteroids but they're always adding more.

Went for the opening. They still have some bugs to work out, so be patient, I can't wait to see this place thriving!

Finally!!! A place in Crestview where you can go chill, have fun and let off some steam. They have an awesome selection of game cabinets, racing, FPS and some consoles. The staff is awesome too, nice and just plane good people. In this world where major companies come in and muscle out all of the little guys, this place is a diamond in the rough. At the time of posting it is just 10$ to get in and play games until your heart is content. Thank god Crestview finally got something other than a new car wash (th

Such a welcome edition to Crestview. Nice to have a chill bar with something to do other than just drink. However they do have a great beer and cider selection. Everyone was so friendly and welcoming and the owner Ryan is a absolute legend!

Great customer service, games were extremely vast and a blast to play. Plenty of rinks and alcohol choices. I had a great time with my girlfriend here, I felt like I was a kid again. AND ITS ONLY 10$

I had a lot of fun! Got to love the nostalgia! Can't wait to come back again.

Great retro arcade and can't beat $10 for all day play. Love that they have a N64, namco favs like galaga and pacman (think I saw digdug), Cruise racing even guitar hero, star Trek and more! Excited to keep going (and maybe add high scores) and see what else is in store!

Absolutely fantastic. Thank you for opening up something for the kiddos in this town. I felt like I jumped back to my childhood playing some of the classics! I pray yall check off all the hopes and dreams yall have in store for this spot. We will be continuous customers!!!! ??

We stopped in to take a look and it is AMAZING!! The Owner is super friendly and knowledgeable. We did not have time to play today, but we will 100% be back!

Took my nephew today, first time for us both and it was awesome! So many fun games and you can't beat $10 (per person) play all you want! Will most definitely be back! Absolutely great place to have to have in our little city!!

Super cool location that took me back 30 years. $10 to play an amazing selection of retro games and have a drink or two. Definately a great hang out if youre into retro video games.

It was a really cool place! It had a lot of cool games, and it was so much fun! The one staff there is really chill! Will go again

The people are nice. There are a lot of games that didn't work just taking up space. Those could be moved and the air hockey table could go there for more room. I couldn't figure out how to place the Super Nintendo.

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.”
