Customer Reviews

Such a family friendly environment, great judge free atmosphere and such fun retro games! The best games in here is NO good Gophers, Flintstones, No Fear, Phantom of the opera and f14! Those are a blast enjoy playing that exact line up! Rollergames was good to but that Million shot on the magnet is a little wonky! Rock on dudes!

Fun environment and a great place to hang out. Owners are attentive and always great to make you feel welcome. Before coming here, I didn't even realize most pinball machines had a sequence and an almost story line like process to them. Owners explained it all and made the game more fun than I ever realized. Can't say enough good things about this place.

Love this place! Always a great time! They have plenty of pinball machines and arcade games to play for hours! Games are always changing so be sure to check back in for something new!

First time here was excited to play a few games and I just stood there looking for someone who works there to take my money so I could play a few. Got walked by by two guys guess they work there but nothing so left What a let down and won't be back.

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.”
