Such a great fun themed store! My kids loved looking at the comics and pinball machines! We grabbed ice cream and it was sooooooooo affordable! Please visit you won’t regret it!

Friday April 18, 2025 X-tra Ball Ice cream has the BEST ice cream (smooth, creamy ice cream) that I have tasted in a while my friend and I visited this place for the first time very friendly staff.

Strangest customer service experience I’ve ever had. We walked in and were not greeting by the man at the counter, he refused to make eye contact with us, and maybe said a total of 3 words to us the entire time. No “thank yous” or “have a good night”. Ice cream was good but we will probably not be back

It’s been years since I played and it was seating to be able to introduce my daughter to it!Bring your quarters or get change- I recommend getting a treat and your game on!Check out the comics too if you’re into those.

Went to this place on a whim for ice cream with my kiddo for a break in between work. They have a small collection of comics and toys, along with pinball machines and lots of tables to hang out and chat or play board or card games. There is even an area in the rear for parties. They have several flavors of Hersheys ice cream. The lady at the counter was very friendly and allowed us to sample several flavors before we finally settled on our selections. We would return.

Dietary restrictions: There is a vegan option and two sugar free options

Parking: Huge parking lot in the shopping center- shared by all of the businesses.

Kid-friendliness: There is an area for kids parties in the back along with restrooms. There are lots of toys for various ages groups.

We had a lot of fun at this place... I mean comic books, ice cream and pinball? What more could you ask for. Oh! Tabletop games tooo. I got the starter set for dungeons and dragons, a dice bag, 3 comics and a milkshake. 3 pinball machines that take quarters. And they do magic the gathering games! They are scheduled on specific days and times. I think commander was the day I was there. Jeremy was working when we visited and he was great. Super helpful in finding a comic my kid would love

Not for pinball players. Machines eat your balls and rude service. Planned to get ice cream but wouldn’t dare after our experience.Maybe a name change to Cards, Comics, and Cream is needed…

Friendly and knowledgeable cashier.

I would live here if i could! The team here is incredible smart and insanely friendly and welcoming. Whether you want ice cream, looking for something new to read, joining the weekly games, or just looking for somewhere to chill, X-Tra Ball is the spot.

The worker here was rude and didn’t say anything to us when we walked in and stood by the ice area. When he was scooping the ice cream he was having a difficult time as if the ice cream hadn’t been touched in a while. Whole place looked unsanitary.. worker didn’t say anything after we said thank you…

The pinball machines are in really rough shape. Wouldn't recommend to people looking exclusively for pinball.

The ice cream portion of Spandex City Comics, all located in the same building. Comics and ice cream, what's not to love?
