What an amazing place. This is a diamond in the ruff. Very fun place for kid friendly games and the management and staff is amazing. Most of the games worked well for the age of the games and there were a lot of games that didn't require money. Me and my family loved it.

Great place for the kids and ol' school games that are free play. I would recommend them for play dates and special events.

This is my favorite arcade! It is a fun time for literally every age. There is a balance between free games and games that cost nickels. 100% worth stopping by! You’re likely to get several hundred tickets from $10 of nickels loaded onto your card- and they have a huge variety of prizes. I recommend giving as much support as you can to the Nickel Arcade!

Nice selection of classic's. A couple VERY rare. Many had LCD's and a few had bad joysticks or buttons. 2 machines (of those I tried) had little to no volume. Only one machine was completely down tho, out of about 50. Not bad. A little TLC and this place would rank 5 stars. I'll attach some pics of a few random machines. The price of admission brought this up 1 star. Honestly they should double that price. Would definitely visit again.
