Took my 9 year old son and he loved it. Love that you pay an entry fee and then it’s unlimited game play all day and you don’t have to worry about quarters or coins! And can just play until your heart is content! It was also super clean and they had hand sanitizer everywhere which I appreciated! We will be back!! My son is already asking if we can go back tomorrow!

This is a fantastic arcade, lotsa of retro games, pinballs, air hockey, basketball, skee ball, etc. It definitely brings that awesome nostalgic feeling!

Great throwback games, fun music, chill vibes, and cool artwork / memorabilia.

Nice retro arcade games and very nice assortment of pinball machines. It was nice to just pay one price and not have to feed machines. Parking can be a bit of a pain.

Fun spot to go. Nice variety of old and new games.

I went here with my girlfriend and I was extremely impressed with the game selection. It was cool to play mortal kombat on an original machine, along with Terminator 2! The only complaint I have with the place is that some of the older machines aren’t in the best condition (which is expected due to their age).I’d love to see more games from the late 90s like the star wars trilogy game and virtual-on: cyber troopers. I hope this place stays around for a long time!

This place absolutely RULES! Lots of games I haven't seen elsewhere along with cool local art and drinks

Very fun place! Brought back memories playing iconic games. One price covers all the games... just push the start button and go.

This was my first time at the arcade. Being an older person, I joked that they didn't have "pong" from my college days. And they did! I'm still not good at it!I had the most fun with Skeeball!

I LOVE this arcade. My favorite part is only playing a set price and then getting to play all day. Which includes pinball!

It's a fun place to hang out, love all the retro games, and the environment is friendly.

This is an awesome local arcade with a bunch of classic arcade games, pinball games and eclectic retro vibes. There is art available, of which I shared some pictures. I got a fun Seattle/Jetsons crossover and one of Link discovering a Metroid in a chest. Plenty of places nearby to get food if you're hungry and ciders and some beers are available onsite. Great place to bring the kids, be nostalgic of old school games and make some memories.

This place is so cool!! It’s really old school but has the perfect bit of modernization. So unique and the owner is super cool.

I booked my 9yr old a birthday party here, and it was fantastic fun! The kids had free play on all the arcade games, air hockey and skee ball, pac man, pop-a-shot were hits! Even had some old skool games like Qbert!! plus an impressive pinball section. Great party atmosphere, with indoor/outdoor seating and a table space for cake and presents. Will definitely return!

Just okay. Staff was friendly. Parking is tough. Games seem a little dated... Meh
