This is a fun place to blow some time. $5 for 3 hours is you want to play the console games and a quarter fit arcade games. The folks that work here are fun and helpful. My only complaint is that the games need to be serviced. They havent been kept up very well.

I loved it. They have a few free arcade games which is a great choice to help bring in people. They have food there to so you dont have go some where else. They are also planning to expand so that should help when its crowded. Over all its awesome.

Old school 80s vibe but also has new games to play. It brings me back to my childhood and I feel all warm and fuzzy inside. Love it!

Really awesome console rentals, including the only VR rentals Ive ever seen. Its an arcade, game store, ice cream shop, and comic shop all in one! Truly nowhere like it

Giving two stars because I like the idea of it and like the philly cheese steak, I been here a few times over the year. Today was horrible all the games are broken and the few that work take your money, garbage everywhere and children climbing on machines. Unless I hear that they stepped it up.i will not be returning. Id rather go to seaside and pay a fortune but have a much better experience.

Fun variety of retro games. Kind of sketchy. Invites a questionable crowd. At times I wasnt sure anyone was working there. Not comfortable ordering food.

Most back issue comics not clearly priced and poorly organized. The arcade has many aging games and some allow you to play for free. They have more modern console games also.

I would not consider this an arcade in the old school sense. Id say 75% or more of the actual arcade games are out of order and they no longer have any pinball games. However, if you want to sit and play a console video game, just like you do in your living room, you can pay to do it here... ? I guess the appeal of that is totally lost on this 80s kid! Itd looove to have pinball back! We used to actually come from Portland just to visit this arcade, and it was so disappointing last time.

My kids love this place, the prices are fantastic, the VR is crazy fun, and the guy that is there most often when I am knows his stuff about comics and games, which is helpful.

The Arc Arcade is a retro arcade that sells comic books. The prices for food and drinks are an acceptable price, and there are even games that supply tickets so that you can get prizes. And there are next gen game consoles like the Playstation 4 and Xbox One
