    I wasn't sure what to expect at this place but I was very pleasantly surprised. The $20 entry fee seems steep at first, but all the games are "free play" once you're in. If you spend a few hours there it's totally worth it. As for the games and the vibe of the place, they're both awesome. It's obvious a lot of effort went in to creating a fun and interesting place. The walls are covered with cool black light art and the bathrooms are covered with comic book pages. The game selection is amazing as well. Lots of variety. Old games, new games, air hockey, billiards tables and more. There's also a full service bar and food available. Kids and adults can have a blast here 😉. The staff was also very friendly and seemed genuinely happy to be there. I definitely recommend this place and I'll for sure be back. I hope it stays in business for a long time.

    Such an amazing Acade! Well worth the price, $25 for unlimited game play, and we spent 5 hours in there. All the games are kept up, and there is such a variety for everyone. Also, I really loved the slushy drinks (would advise doubles). 😊

    We had so much fun playing the 100 pinball machines, old school video games, air hockey, and skee ball! The food isn't bad either. Best of all - Kendall our gaming bar tender rocked the house!

    This place is awesome! A little hidden gem. Didn’t expect it to be this cool. Staff is polite and helpful! Lots of video games, Pinball machines, and many other games to have loads of fun. Absolutely recommend this places for a kids party or just to hang out and have fun.

    This place is awesome, you walk in and automatically get hit with nostalgia. I felt my childhood in this place. I got to play games with my 22 yr old son and showing him games that I used to play when I was young and some new games as well. Beating him in Street fighter was great. We both had a blast here, I will definitely be returning every chance I get when I visit my son. 👍🏽

    The facility and games are nice. One of the game rooms wreaks of farts. The staff is half clothed wearing a neon light up bra as a top. Children’s game arcade with strippers as servers. Interesting combo.

    Very cool place to bring the kids, or even have date night! Not as busy week days. Very loud, so if you or someone else has sensory issues, I would suggest noise cancelling headphones. ;) So many games!! They have new games, & retro games. Also a bar with drinks & food. & Sanitizer at the tables.

    Great place to bring the family for a fun arcade night. There are plenty of arcades and other gaming equipment to play without limits. The bar is also surrounded by consoles for you to play while you enjoy a drink. Two major complaints for me would be the lack of no cash sign outside the establishment. Only once you go in to pay is when you find out that it is cards only, no cash. My second complaint is the lack of seating for those who are playing and just want to sit and wait. Your only option is to sit at the bar and take paying customers' seats. Over all ita a fun place, pricey compared to game over but with more machines. Food is bar food, nothing to scream about.

    I visited today from Cleveland, Ohio before I flew out tomorrow. My sister, niece, son and I had a wonderful time. I was time warped into my childhood and overseas with all of the games available. Even when my son misplaced his phone, we instantly found it and continued with the fun. This is great hidden gem within the city for outsiders. The young lady working the bark with the really cool makeup was super sweet as well. Next time im back in town, ill visit again

    What a fun place to visit! Definitely recommend for families with kids over 7. A lot of the games are tall. It's definitely built for an older crowd. Get there right when they open for less crowds!

    Was in Melbourne w kids for school vacation. We had a rainy chilly Sunday. Took the kids here to get out of the house and we had an absolute blast. The staff were very pleasant and there was a fun assortment of new games and some arcade classics. I would definitely recommend visiting this place. It was a reasonable pricee for all the gaming you could want. We went at 6PM and it wasn't too busy so we were able to try anything we wanted. The kids and I loved it! We we were there for 4.5 hours.

    Amazing place. They had a variety of games including some classics. The service was nice. The food was a little bit greasy but tasty. The mall have a lot of parking and good illumination during the night.

    This is an awesome secret in Melbourne..unlimited games for one entry fee is amazing and the food is not too overly priced. The indoor decor is done extremely well and the staff is 100% nice and on top of cleaning games and the entire arcade area. I will keep bringing my kids here!

    What a cool friggin arcade place. Definitely one of the best arcade places I’ve ever been to. They have a bar with some alcohol slushes that were delicious and so many games. The fact that’s it’s unlimited game play is amazing and so much fun!

    The food and drinks were amazing! What was Especially great was Nico's service! She was super attentive with an awesome vibe! The chef was able to cater to my dietary allergies making something gluten free on the fly! The visual arts are top notch here, definitely a sight to remember!

    It was a very fun time with a good mix of old school classics and some modern games. Service is slow, but not too many on staff, but that was confusing having two door people working and two working concessions. They seemed to have lots of beer options and expensive but cheap booze slushy drinks. We didn't eat the food, although what i noticed seems to be a step above bar food. It's definitely a good time, and we will go back.

    This is the coolest bar in town! The vibe is perfect, the artwork is fantastic, and the games are fun. Gabby knows how to make a drink! Definitely coming back here more often.

    If you are into arcade games, you have to check this place out. I do have to warn you, it's loud and it can be visually overwhelming, but also a great escape from the Florida heat. Spend a few hours on the pinball machines, or try out the many old school parade games. My daughter grew up playing Wii, but was into the old-school pinball games. Made me smile to see her evolve into a Pin Ball Wizard, as well as have a drum competition with her mom. Lots of smiles all around.

    This place is personally my favorite arcade ever. The workers here are super nice and the food is really fresh. Very fun atmosphere , safe for kids , this girl that served us needs a promotion!!!!!

  • 3/5 Casey L. 5 months ago on Google
    I personally was disappointed. I've waited forever to go here. For u or us smokers no re-entry. I chose no to play just bring my son and it was 10 dollars for me just to grace them with my presence. Atleast throw in a free drink. But you can bring in outside food and drink. Next time my yeti will be filled. They also marked my hand and had me sign a waiver I wouldn't touch the games. A little overboard. The only reason i gave it a 3 is my son had fun.

    As I’ve never been here before, it was a pleasant surprise of arcade machines and japanese based games that I love. Fun and chill atmosphere. Pretty cool pictures too. Cam was pretty cool and helpful when we asked about the best kinds of food to eat.

  • 5/5 Ashley A. 1 year ago on Google
    Such an awesome arcade! $20 for unlimited game play with tasty drinks, Brett helped us out with getting wrist bands and drinks. Had fun with all the pinball games and racing games are the best.

  • 5/5 Nina P. 10 months ago on Google
    You gotta go! It's Melbourne's best kept secret for good and fun entertainment. We went on July 4th. Was not busy at all. I went with family who were visiting. The kids and adults equally enjoyed themselves. You can't beat $20 of unlimited play. I would go back just as a solo player. The kitchen was closed, but they had a good deal for July 4th. Go out to eat and come back to unlimited play. I appreciated that! Highly recommend!!

    Arcade Monsters was a HIT in my books. All the vintage to modern games are all here, and I can appreciate the environment with the fun colors and amazing atmosphere. They have pool tables, ski ball, and also Smash Bros Ultimate. They also have a place you can eat at, but it is expensive to buy, so in my opinion, eat something before going. The best thing about this place is that for all the fun experience it's only $20. For that price, you're really getting a bang for your buck for ultimate and unlimited game play for a couple of hours. It rocks!

    Every time I go to this location I have a great time and am always met with great service from the bartenders. Tonight Lily served me and was amazingly patient and kind as she got through the busy line and helped everyone. This is a great place for all ages as it has something to do for everyone! I highly recommend coming here as a date option, family night out, or a solo trip to work on your gaming skills. Tip your bartenders!!

    I’m not here to complain about the people because service was amazing also the bar tenders where great and the fashion choice is amazing and very slay (yes I’m noting that one review stating about them being strippers because that is a ridiculous reason to not like a place) but…I feel like the place is a little overrated and overpriced. I do not get why they ask for a tip for putting on my worst band. The games they have are great but I really was disappointed about the retro games they have. I really only played Tron and that was it. The Japanese games were great and very unique but it was kinda overwhelming. Overall if you are looking for a place with a mix of games to play and good service check it out.
