They have 3 rooms to choose from depending on the difficulty level and the number of people in each group. We opted for Blue's Arena, which is best suited for 2-4 first-time players. There's a small locker area where you can store your belongings during the game. The hour we booked for was divided into 2 sessions. Each session features a different game with about 10-12 levels each. If you fail a level, no worries because you can always repeat it. You can also take a short break in between the sessions, which we definitely did because it was quite a good workout session.

It was much larger than I expected, with lots of different games to choose from. They've added some new games since the last time I visited, including VR games, which was pretty cool. There's a good variety of arcade games, so there's something for everyone. Whether you're into the classic games or want to try something a little different. You will spend a good amount of time and money there. Another thing I noticed is that all your tickets are now stored on your game card. So you don't have to worry about keeping track of paper tickets. Very convenient. Overall, it was fun coming back after such a long time and seeing all the changes they have made. I'd definitely come back again, preferably when it is less crowded.

I don't really understand the super negative reviews. If you're coming here for fine dining I think…read moreyou're at the wrong place. I dropped in with a friend for belated bday celebrations the other week. I admittedly have never been to a Dave & Busters in my life. Yes, to Chuck E Cheese. Which this is basically the same thing with the exception that they don't have an alcohol limit. There's a full sit down area with huge screen tvs for sports as well as a bar top area near the games. My friend wanted the whole experience. So he got a burger. I tried a small bite and it admittedly tasted possibly worse than an elementary school lunch meal. The spinach and artichoke dip which the waiter recommended however was the bees knees. You really can't mess up chips and dip. What you really want to come here for though is their $5-7 happy hour that lasts until 7pm. $5 lite beers, $6-7 wine and cocktails. I ended up being adventurous and tried the watermelon rita and the dangerous waters. I will say I probably preferred the watermelon margarita over what was essentially swamp juice or something with I feel may possibly be malibu bay breeze and neon colored juice and pineapple. My friend also surprised me with a dessert brownie and the entire crew came out to sing. Dave & Buster's really cares lol. What we really came for to be honest was a Star Wars game that was advertised on instagram. I guess it wasn't for this specific D&B location which was a huge disappointment. We still made do and played a few of the games. Top Gun Maverick was a personal favorite. Yes, they are ridiculously over-priced games. I'm not even sure how much the more hi-tech games cost because you typically buy a bundle package that provides you with 'electronic chips' for each game. They are ranging from $25-55 depending on how crazy you think you're going to get but I recommend if you don't intend spending more than 30 minutes to an hour to go with the cheapest or middle tier package deal. I think the main drag to coming here is that it's peak Times Square traffic but the place was almost empty when I came which was a plus.

Connecting the headphones to audio inputs/exports might take some troubleshooting with some computers. The ticket prices are a steal.

I would highly recommend BOWLERO for a business team building event. Everything was terrific. Some of the delicious food on the Buffet was barbecued boneless chicken wings, mini spring rolls ,pigs in a blanket, veggie burger sliders, french fries, tater tots, fried cauliflower with Parmesan was yummy and I can't remember the rest of the food but I can definitely tell you everything was delicious. We were each given Arcade Game Cards-like a plastic credit card-and could play the Arcade games for free, by simply swiping our card. I don't know the amount on the card, but I felt like I got to play a lot of games. All in all, this team building event was very nice, and a lot of fun. I appreciated the fact that it was a non-alcoholic event so nobody became stupid. A definite five star time. I'm sorry I don't have any photos to show you.

Luckily we arrived early, but it was a bit upsetting that they couldn't provide an estimate of how long the wait might be, only a list of how long some other groups have currently waited, ranging up to 3 hours, which is a long time to spend wandering around Times Square waiting for a text. I also had some arcade credit from another Groupon, which we used to keep ourselves entertained for about 45 minutes during our wait. We were so happy when we finally got the text that it was our turn to bowl. It was a bit cramped at our area, not having quite enough space for everyone to sit comfortably or easily get from the seats to the bowling area without needing others to shift around.

All was good except the nachos. Skip it. After a game of bowling, some of us stayed and did some karaoke. Personally think this is a good place to bowl, sing, and do other things like pingpong and pool, but the location is not ideal. Port authority gets really sketchy after dark.

Adults can re-live their childhood memories while sipping cocktails. There is no cover charge, but all video game machines require non-refundable tokens. If you are planning to play for a while, purchase many coins because they will disappear fast. A majority of the games require 2-3 tokens. In order to be admitted entry, a photo ID is required. The bouncers at the door will inspect your bags for weapons and water bottles. Even bottled water isn't allowed into the bar, which is not fair because I always carry water while walking through the city. #barcade #barcadechelsea

First, there is a record store on the first and second level, with tons of inventory from across the decades. I spent most of my time in the sorta-speakeasy-ish bar. Dark, retro. Drinks are pretty basic, but they have fun themes that go along with their karaoke setups. Bartenders were super nice and fun to talk to. The best part is I hit happy hour at just the right time and all my drinks were half price! They have a TON of karaoke rooms that you can rent out singularly or as a group. Prices vary, but you can hit karaoke happy hour and rent out a short time for yourself if you're just wanting to have some fun solo. Themes include superheroes, jazz, sunset blvd, the playboy room, adult movies of the 70s. There is something for everyone.

With the understanding that I'm definitely not the target demo for this place, this could have been…read moreworse. I came here for a work event in honor of a colleague's last day (who I suspect is VERY much the target demo) a few Tuesdays ago. My understanding is that we booked a 6pm to 8pm time slot, featuring an open bar - a cheaper open bar with house spirits, which is certainly what I would have emphasized to whomever had to review the bill later - and...ping pong. K-Town is only a few blocks from where we work, but it's JUST far enough where I rarely walk through it, and it also wasn't a huge destination when I was in college further downtown a little over 20 years ago. Seems edgy from my walks, particularly some of the divey restaurants, but there's probably a reason this might have literally been my debut in the neighborhood. Like nearby Five Iron Golf (and I'm guessing a lot of businesses in this area), Space Ping Pong requires you to go into a generic building lobby and take an elevator up to the actual establishment. I really don't remember this being a thing in literally any other NYC neighborhood but I'm open to feedback. There were employees downstairs - I think more so on behalf of the building overall versus specific businesses - that managed the influx of people and got them quickly onto the elevator and ultimately their destination. It was very blue in there. Space has a definite arcade/Dave & Busters vibe but also a legit bar, so you're getting some edgy, dim lighting to match. I had to deal with potential NJ Transit drama (a day that ends in a y, am I right?) so i only stayed for about 45 minutes. In that time, I did enjoy two refreshing tequila/grapefruits from the open bar, as well as several informal ping pong matches. On the booze front, these weren't particularly strong, which I didn't really care about, especially since it was a Tuesday and I wasn't trying to get into too much mischief. They tasted pleasant enough, and given that a lot of the alcohol here in terms of both spirits and cocktails was very obviously geared toward barely legal young pups (the menu massively gave off Hoboken) it was a marginal win for me. There was a food menu as well that I heard mixed things about after the fact, but I didn't sample the wares so who can say? That also looked like pretty generic bar food for what it's worth. I imagine people are coming for the ping pong primarily, not the refreshments. The ping pong? Also fine. I would suggest that the areas where the ping pong tables are have at least slightly better lighting. I'm not going to claim that the dim party lights played a hand in my ping pong mediocrity, but it WAS a little tough to see some of the lines on the table (which I'm sure have sophisticated names I'm unaware of). Just slightly brighter - you don't need medical examiner room vibes or anything. Also similar to bowling and its equivalent bumpers on the sides, maybe something to more easily catch or capture the errant ping pong balls? They DO have an employee or two pretty regularly going around with this scooper/sucker thing (I think they have this in golf too) but we had a lot of instances of ping pong balls ending up under tables or rolling off somewhere into the abyss. Debatable though; that's arguably part of the game and I don't think anyone's experience here markedly suffered as a result of a stray ball, especially given that there were tons of available ones to grab when the need presented itself. I didn't mind this. All respect to Space Ping Pong, I'm probably hitting up one of the restaurants next time I'm in the area.
