Been going way back since 1999 when there was nothing but fighting games and a few basketball games. Glad to see the arcade is still open and thriving 26 years later! Wish they could stay open to 11PM like old days, but definitely understand why.
Been here a few times now, staff are sweet, really tidy too but you don't really get a bang for your buck.. and the claw machines are a literal waste, wouldn't recommend letting the little ones who get excited about claw machines trying it. One little piece of candy is 10 points, and the rest range higher. You average around 60-70 points for 40 credits ($20) points, and only about 30 minutes max of playtime. But overall a good spot if you need to do something quick with your kids and don't want them taking up too much time
This place is amazing. Our daughter was admitted at the CHOP Seashore House and was able to go here on a 4 hour weekend leave. While, we had to carry her up the few stairs at the entrance, the staff made up for it with their service. They were kind and accommodating. We would highly recommend this to any family staying st CHOP who is permitted to leave for a few hours.
I was too busy having a blast with the kids to take too many pics. This place was worth every penny. The machine selection was big considering it's not a huge place. Well lit. Safe location and immediate surroundings. The attendant, not sure if he was the owner was outstanding. We able to wander without care. The prize selection makes.any kid happy. We went.in the early evening and found a spot right in front. So fun. We went and took pics about the downtown area and had an all around nice evening. Would love to do it and my kids would second that. Ages range from 5-15 and all of them found something to gravitate to.
Despite parking isn't easy to find, I think this place is great! There's are quite a few games to play even though the place is small. But hey that doesn't matter right? You'll have tons of fun! I know this is my first time coming but it surely won't be my last.
