Customer Reviews

Wow.. So I heard of a grand opening! After looking a bit more it looks like they are just failing and are moving to a different location. They are NOT upgrading their almost 10 year old computers (state of the art??) The posted picture is someone on their Facebook calling out the machines being subpar back in 2021!!!!!!!!!! The website shows specs of 1070's from 2016, (light 1080p gaming at best), with a 2017 9th gen i5 CPU. I literally replace these in offices all day as they are DATED old

Great place to have a birthday party, bachelor party or an epic LAN party! What's even better, is that they'll help your crew in your efforts to raise money for programs like Extra Life 4 Kids.

Top level is an amazing facility with 40 stations for gamers to enjoy. Brett was informative and helped with all gaming questions I had. I highly suggest joining a tournament or becoming a member.

Came on Friday at 10:00 PM ? the club was closed. The listed hours say it's open until 12:00 AM.

Updated new and looks amazing. New Pac-Man games and pinball machines. The energy is great like it always has been and the hype around the opening is back and it's a great feeing glad top level is back open.

Really nice gaming facility. Very clean and organized, high quality setups for any kind of gaming. Friendly staff with a small snack bar behind the front desk. Great place to host tournaments or just to relax and game. Venue fee is cheap as well, definitely worth checking out.

This company shares a building with other businesses. On the busiest days for all three companies they host big events. While doing so they do not communicate properly parking and it impacts other businesses customer base as well. People are asked to move and give the business that's are next to top level gaming an issue in which they cannot help. If you are going to have events at the same time your ?neighboring? business are open you need to communicate to your people the parking situations and advise the

Me and my little sister love this place we go every Thursday! We play for about an hour when I get off work. They have plenty of games on the computers as well! The only thing I wish is that all the head set would work, but still an amazing place! We bring our family and friends as well! It's a great place to bond with a family member and friends, and just sit back, buy a monster and beat them in every game! Haha! Love this place keep up the fantastic work!???? But other than that the games take too long to

Not a 5 star place at all i was mislead by reviews to go here, if you're questioning going here for a tournament don't. Came for an Apex legends tournament a little while back thinking this could be legit, was told at the front door after a 30 min drive up and changing work schedules around for my teammates that the tournament may not happen due to lack of participation with 0 notification. Then they were as kind as to let us play on their pc?s for a short while if we wanted for no charge, but they were goi

Very good place with very nice workers but games often need updates and you have to sit and waste your time you bought to wait for them I don't think you should have to pay if a game is updating we just paid for an hour and only have a half hr now to play others than that decent place

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.”
