Looks really run down and junky inside.
The place is not what we expected its not the same what we saw in youtube when we go there we are disappointed about the place and the vibes not that clean too kinda dirty
To be honest it's ok I went to go play Galaxy Galaga and yet was broken and well more for family well yet don't know hoe's after hours
Just went tonight and the only game I could relate to from the 80s was Ms Pac-man. On my last visit a couple years ago I played Frogger, Dig Dug, Pac-man, Donkey Kong, Donkey Kong Jr., Defender and Mario Brothers. This visit, none of them were available. Theres a new crowd of yuppies that visits this place and it was clear none of them were there to play video games. I stood there uninterrupted for 2 hours playing Ms. Pac-man. I reminisced the feelings of joy that i would see on my kids faces and time had no problem passing me by. I hope this remodel is a real thing because if nothing changes in a few months on my next visit, all the memories that i hold and cherish dearly will be all that remains of this place in my heart.
pretty decent experience. not as many games as there used to be…
Garbage place
Went here on a double date to eat dinner and play games, but the kitchen was shut down and there were almost no games that worked properly- half were covered in caution tape or blocked off. The bathroom had the toilet paper roll sitting on the floor, the paper towel dispenser was broken, and the door was held open by a dirty cinderblock. Felt very run down and unwelcoming. Not sure what’s going on.
I played one pinball machine, and found the tilt setting was so sensetive that hitting the flipper button titled it. I left after that, because ever other machine was obviously broken.
These guys gotta get their act together. I've been there before when everything was fine, but this was a total waste of time and money.
If you can't keep your machines working during a remodel, finish your work instead of ripping off your customers.
I'm usually a huge fan of barcades, but this one had a very limited selection and multiple games were broken
Did they put the games back yet? I went recently and none of the games were there. The only reason I come is for Mario kart and guitar hero but neither were available only about 5 machines were operating

Most of the games were broken or half broken.
Several games were broken, but the owner says there's new games in the near future; looking forward to it.
Oh, if you love handing over your money to someone who couldn’t care less about customer service, this is the place for you! The owner is impressively unprofessional—almost like it’s a skill. Do yourself a favor and spend your money elsewhere.
Would not recommend their late night service. I called and they answered, “hi we close in a half hour.” *click. I can understand you’re trying to get home but there are better ways to communicate with a potentially paying customer.
In response to your response
Interesting approach to customer service. How exactly is hanging up on a potential customer considered acceptable? Busy or not, a little professionalism goes a long way. Maybe reconsider how you communicate with customers, no matter the time.
unkempt interior and unmaintained machines
