Customer Reviews

The staff there is amazing. Wife and I went on a date there and shared 30 minutes of time. We will definitely go back as we both had great experience and the VR is incredible. Lots of games to choose from. You will not be disappointed.

A really fun place for family groups! Had a blast - lots of game options and owners are great at getting first-timers oriented quickly on how to play! Definitely recommend!

It was my husbands and my first time ever using virtual reality. We loved it and they we patient with us. Even when I screamed at the zombie they weren't bothered by it.

This place is really great. The games are fun to play and fun to watch other people play. This isn't some cheap, shoddy VR tech, it's the real deal. I highly recommend it.

This place is great! Had my son's Birthday party there and everyone had fun, even the adults!

This is an incredible place! I really wasn't sure what to expect when I went in with my wife and two boys. The owner is awesome and was more than willing to walk us through the experience with a demo before we got started. We all had a great time and the pricing is very reasonable, based on booths and not per person. We will definitely go back. I highly recommend giving this a shot. You, your date, family, or group are bound to have a riot.

We celebrated my daughters 10th birthday here. We had a total of 22 people including 9 adults. The staff went above and beyond to make sure everyone had a great experience. We were very excited to give this place a try and we glad we did! Everyone was very friendly and attentive and was eager to help. They provided instructions on how the equipment was operated and didn't leave you to figure it out on your own, which was nice, particularly for those that had never tried VR before. Thank you VR Junkie

Went to VR Junkies with work for a team builder and we had a blast. This was my first VR experience and it was such a great experience. Seemed very real with a huge variety of games. I highly recommend for family fun, team building, birthdays, or any occasion. The owner and staff are very friendly and knowledgeable. I highly recommend this place!

This VR experience really was phenomenal. I've never used it before, and I'm glad that I came to VR Junkies. The workers were so nice and accommodating, and aside from just helping us get comfortable with the equipment, they recommended which games were the best ones to try. My family spent a few hours there, and we wish we could have stayed longer. I give my highest recommendation, if you live even remotely near it, you own it to yourself to go.

So much fun! The prices are fair and my boys love it! I think this will become a reward for chores and school work. This is great as a family, but would be fun for all groups or parties. The fellow that runs it is friendly and has a passion for VR.

This place has brought me a lot of joy and excitement, they have 150+ games to play and i grew up with the owners son the family who owns this place is all around amazing and cares for everyone. i have been here several times and i have had so much fun every time. they treat you with so much respect and help you out with anything you do. they also have a party room that you can purchase for a night which is also super fun. This place is so much fun go give them a try.

These guys are awesome! Had never really experienced vr before but it was on another level! The staff is super friendly and helpful with teaching you how to play and they are happily willing to accommodate any group at pretty much any time! We were there about a half an hour after close because it's easy to lose track of time in VR, but they didnt seem to be bothered at all, just glad we were there. It made the whole experience better. We will definitely be back!

This place is so much fun!! Really good game choices and the space to play is comfy and chill. The owners are extremely friendly and personable. They help you with confusing games and give you really good tips. I had a freakin blast and will be going back!!

Great place! Fun games, everything worked great, kids had a blast!

Do you wanna soar across the city sky, climb tall buildings or put out fires without any of the risk of falling, getting hurt or burned? Virtual Reality is a potential solution for you-and there's a new place in town to try it out! As a mom, I especially am glad that a place like this exists so I don't have to invest in all the equipment and games, not to mention ensure a large enough open space at home to play. VR Junkies takes care of all of that for me. Call ahead, book online, or even walk in (but know

This place is amazing. I go here with friends often and it's always fun. The owners are awesome, very nice people. The Smash tournament is fun to watch ?? I got some friends playing and we try our absolute best to come back next time. They have so many games to choose from. I highly recommend if you're looking for stuff to do. Worth the money??

Absolutely fantastic facility. The bays are very well lit and very well set up with the headsets. Had a very enjoyable time playing and the owner was super nice and very friendly. I will definitely be going back to play more beatsaber in the future. I can highly recommend this VR arcade.

This place is freaking awesome! I'm not a huge gamer myself and I had an amazing time. The virtual reality is definitely an experience you should try! Fun for all ages and games of all different kinds. Perfect for a party. I'll definitely be coming back soon.

I happened upon this VR Arcade and decided to try it with a friend and I had a fantastic time playing two player games. Employees were extremely friendly and helpful, especially for someone new to VR like myself. I plan on going back with my son to try some different games very soon.

It was so much fun!! Everyone there is super nice and helpful and makes sure you have a good time! They help you at the beginning so you know What you're doing too. it's super fun and a great place to go with family and friends!! It's also not very expensive. I 100% recommended!!

Awesome place for friends to get out & make memories! The virtual reality experience is unlike anything else and so freaking awesome! You have to try it for yourself! The owner is a super cool guy, friendly & very helpful. We'll definitely be back. :)

We've played some Playstation VR before but this was a whole different level. The environment is great and the games are fun. The VR was incredibly immersive (we jumped multiple times when dinos tried to eat us), and the worker was incredibly helpful - totally made it a great experience. We will definately be back with multiple groups.

This place is awesome! My kids loved every second! Such a fun way to entertain them! So impressed with the staff, very friendly and knowledgeable! We'll definitely be back!

Had a great time, owners are kind and generous, I got to play on the new Oculus Quest while my boys were playing multiplayer VR. All the tech worked and friendly folk, please go support these good people providing a needed place for kids and families in the Herriman area

It's a really fun place if you enjoy playing VR games, nicely set up and lots of game selections. We enjoyed it a lot, the owners were awesome as well!

Very fun atmosphere and helpful staff. All the equipment is brand new and state of the art. All the kids had a great time and said they can't wait to have their birthday parties here!

We stumbled upon this awesome place as we were looking for something to do for our date night. We had so much fun! I haven't laughed this much in a long time! The staff were friendly and helpful. We will definitely go back.

First off!.... Sorry for all of the screaming! Thank you for your time and patience with us! It was absolutely fantastic!!! And just so you know the Haunted Mine Ride is FREAKY!!!! VR Junkies Fans for life!!!?? Definitely going back and taking more people with us!!!!??

Best VR experience in the entire U.S. I know because I've been to each and every one including IMAX VR in LA. The owner/staff are all very friendly and professional. So much better than spending money on a movie. If you're looking for something fun to do on a date...multiplayer VR is perfect! You and your date can fight zombies together...just the two of you battling it out to save the world (or what's left of it in "Arizona Sunshine.") Also great for kids and adults of all ages.

Great place for a family get together, renting a couple booths is perfect and isolated enough to feel safe in these crazy times! Great place when your looking for something open for a little party with the family or just to get out of the house!

Great place and very friendly and attentive staff. Need to work out some bugs though which may be inherent to VR and because of newbie patrons. Staff is very helpful and stop your time as you get the hang of things.

I have never had any experiences with VR before and they were so helpful and understanding and guided me through the whole process of how everything works. It was seriously so cool, and we had an absolute blast! I seriously cannot wait to go back!

Had a ton of fun at VR junkies. We went as a double date with friends. Gave us something new and different to do besides dinner and a movie. Staff was great. Excited to go back.

I honestly can't rate this yet because I haven't been yet. I'm an Administrative Assistant and I'm looking for some new team building ideas for some of my teams. The responses from the owner on these reviews are hilarious and make me and my teams really want to try it!! Hopefully we can set something up soon!

This place Blew my mind! The owners are the nicest people! It was such a fun place to take the family games for everyone! I will definitely be spreading the word and making this a frequent family fun place!

This place is awesome. It is fun for all ages. Perfect activity for a date night, youth activity or just some fun with the family. The staff was super helpful and friendly. Go check this place out.

This place is a BLAST! You need to come experience this!!!! I struggle with motion sickness on simple video games within 5 minutes, and i played for over 2 hours on this and never felt sick once. This is an experience you can't miss! I will be back soon!!!!

I had my birthday party there and my friends and I had so much fun!! VR is amazing! And the employees are such great people and treat you so well! Thanks!

I love this place! I've been here a couple of times and every time it gets better! We rented out the back room for a couple of hours and they gave us extra time. They are super helpful, I really recommend coming here! :)

I had a blast using VR! Super helpful staff, especially for those who aren't necessarily a gamer. Definitely worth a visit for everyone.

This is the place to go to have a great date or family night. Some of the best people you'll ever meet own it and I highly recommend going and trying it out. Be warned once you do you'll be addicted

Wife and I had a great time. Played for about an hour. Tried Space Junkies and Arizona Sunshine. Loved both! Great staff very helpful.

My wife and I went there and had a great time. We were both new to VR but the staff made it easy. Can't wait to go back!

My boyfriend and I bought an hour and shared a booth. It was so fun and the staff were attentive. I can't wait to come over again!

I brought a family of 5 people from 5 years to 78 and we all had a great time. We were very new to VR and the staff was great, very friendly and helpul, we plan to return soon.

What an awesome experience! I love the variety of educational, interactive and fun programs they have. And they even have games. I recommend Herriman VR Junkies!

Absolutely awesome experience for the family. Well run store and very knowledgeable staff and super friendly. Great experience and highly recommend stopping by and supporting this awesome company! Thanks for everything!

This place is great! Lots of options for games. The owners are super friendly and helpful. And their basis for opening the business is honorable.

This VR junkies location was the best. Really great customer service and people running the place. VR was a blast. Highly recommend it!

The kids running the arcade did an excellent job on helping my boys learn how to play the games. Wr all had a great time. Thanks Nate.

Great place to take family. Had even our 3 year old nephew playing some of the games. Great Experience

It's a great place had a really fun time lots of games to choose from I personally liked Arizona Sunshine and Super Hot

Love this place!! The people are the nicest ever, and it is so much fun to rent a booth with friends. Great for hangouts, dates, and events!

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.”
