We have never been to an arcade, had a lot of fun! Jay at the desk was so lovely and patient explaining to the kids what prize they could pick with the tokens they had. Thanks so much, will visit again.

Theyve renovated the layout and its much lighter and more open than it used to be which is much nicer to attend as a family. We held our sons birthday there and they have a party room if you take up one of their packages. The kids had an awesome time, we self catered with happy meals and the kids took prizes home from game tickets in lieu of gift bags.

Gotta love the diversity of the new vaccine policy. Obviously can be bothered with other COVID practices (keeping it clean). Won't come back even when COVID isnt around. What a way to shatter a excited 8 year old.

Driving games and shooting games is the main stuff, a bit more variety would be better. North Lakes is better for games, service is equally good for both

Lots of lights noise and fun... decent variety of games plenty variety for younger kids. Older Teenagers may get bored though there are things for them as well. Decent pinball machine out front for us older folk.
