    We had a fantastic time here. The entry price is more than fair and the selection of games to play is staggering. Many of these are what started my lifelong love for video games and are a must-play for anyone getting into gaming. Thanks for keeping these classic machines going!

    Pretty cool. Had some fun games. The website said it had a couple of games I didn't see and one of the games wasn't working right, but they are old machines so you gotta expect things will go wrong with some. But overall it was a pretty good time and it's nice to pay one price and just keep hitting the restart buttons! I'm sure I will visit again!

    The new space is great!!! They have an outside area now with a ton of seating and games! They did switch to tokens for the pinball and larger machines. They have added a ton more places to put drinks while playing games! The bar now has super cute on brand drinks like "Princess Peaches Pink Lemonade". And even more seating than they have had before. We didn't order any pizza but it did smell and look great! I loved The Arcade before, but this new space has taken them to a new level and I can't wait to see them grow more!

    Definitely lives up to it's name, the variety of games is incredible and makes it great for all ages. Nostalgia for parents and fun for kids too! The games are all on free play, and they charge an admission fee instead. The exception is pinball, which is not on free play. That's my only complaint, but it's a small one. Don't let that deter you-there's plenty of amazing games even if you don't count pinball in the mix.

    This arcade has quite a few pinball machines, and a lot of old school arcade games. Everything from old Atari type games to sit down racers, fighting games, it even has a couple mounted gun games and several four player games. Arcade games are on free play and it's only 50¢ to play pinball. Well worth your time to stop by and play a bit. Nearly $11 to get in might seem like much up front, but since most arcade machines are close to a dollar these days you'll get your money's worth pretty quickly.

    They have unlimited play or pay 50 cents for pinball and a few other games...no need to do unlimited play. Full bar as well a d huge outdoor area. Parking available and plenty of street parking.

    Nice bar and tasty pizza. Kids (or adults) can play all day for $12. Outdoor games and an extensive arcade with current games and old favorites. 4 player Pac-Man is pretty fun.

    I loved the old arcade but I really love the new arcade. Really the old school video games and pinball. We also like that there is more space and patio to chill out with corn hole and connect four. The only down side they didn’t have the string lights on yet. The menu to pizza and apps right now but the pizza was really good. Everything is pretty reasonable price.

    I really liked this place here love pinball, and alot of older games, I would like to see some of the older pinball machines but I understand most people like the flashier machines so owner wants to make money. I loved this place and will go back in less than 2 weeks.

    Came to this place for the first time and had an absolute blast from the past! They have a wonderful selection of old arcade games with unlimited plays. My favorite was the pinball area they had. Spent at least a few hours here. I honestly could spend all day here, it’s so much fun! Definitely come with a friend or two

    Recently stopped in on our way back to Colorado from Oklahoma. What a great selection of pinball machines and arcade games! The pizza we ordered got to us quickly and was delicious. Check out their outdoor area!

    I had a super good time! The best time I have had in a long time. The atmosphere brought me back to when arcades were everywhere. If you are as old as I am take some time and relive that childhood or help your littles experience some of your childhood joy. This is the perfect place to do that. Enjoy it guys!!

    What a cool place. Blast from the past. It was super cool taking the grandbabies to play all of my old video games from highschool and junior high. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. Great family fun!

    This was our first time at their new location. Set up is perfect, they did a fantastic job. We were worried because the original location was so charming and held good memories, but we made wonderful new memories with their Mario kart game!!! Great bartenders, friendly staff.

    Super fun place to go and hang out with your friends and family! We definitely had a lot of fun and there were a lot of varieties in games. We were never bored. Good pricing and the employee was nice

    Went here on a Daughter/Mom date and we had a BLAST! It was fun to show her the “old” games from back in the day and SHE had a great time and it’s a good bonding moment!

    Good selection of older games, although some controls are delayed/spotty at times. Pinball machines cost 50 cents per play though. Overall great experience, but don't go in hoping to easily crush some high scores!

  • 5/5 Chris H. 1 year ago on Google
    Great place for all ages, it was a fantastic experience, and look forward to coming back. Could easily spend hours upon hours there, great value and good times. My kids enjoyed it way more than I expected and are begging to go back!

  • 4/5 Roberta W. 1 year ago on Google
    I enjoyed the variety of classic arcade games. The price is fair. The bathroom was clean and smelled like fresh citrus. The gentleman behind the counter was polite and efficient. My only concerns were 6 or more games were not in service. My grandson and I were there for 21/2 hours, in that time not one game was wiped down or sanitized. I did see sanitizer bottles. Otherwise it was a wonderfully nostalgic experience. Thank you

🫤 Another great place ruined by corporate America. $3 for a pair of sock. $4 50 for a small drink. No more pitchers. They changed the pizza. It's like gas station pizza now. So sad.
