This place hit something very personal for me — a childhood dream of an arcade where you don’t constantly pay per game. It’s a flat fee: you walk in and just play. No tokens, no timers, no pressure. It works really well for adults and for kids. My wife and I had a lot of fun, and our kids were just as happy. There’s self-serve craft beer for the grown-ups, which somehow fits the arcade atmosphere perfectly. The design is well done: neon signs, video displays, and a layout that feels intentional rather than chaotic. A few machines were broken, but there was still more than enough to play, and most of the games were in good condition. The best part was how uncrowded it was. We had the place almost entirely to ourselves for nearly 2 hours as a family, which made the experience feel relaxed and special. Overall, a great concept and a fun spot for a family outing where both parents and kids genuinely enjoy themselves. We’d happily come back.

This awesome pinball arcade and a lot of other games, video games, ski ball, basketball, pac man and other games. We were able to get beers on tap from good day brewing. It was a little overwhelming with all of the lights at first but once you start playing the games it got so intense and pretty addicting. I really like the Hot Wheels pinball machine that also vibrates. They have 4 TVs and 4 player consoles, got to play some Mario kart and some basketball. There’s some street parking and there are parking garages all around the area. You pay for a fee for an hour to play all of the machines but the pinball machines are $1 for each game.
