Cali Claw - Arcades Near Me - Concord, California

Came here on a Saturday afternoon and it was pretty empty but made it easier to look at the items we wanted! Claw games are always a pain, but the service they provided was unmatched! If you win something at the machine but it isn't what you wanted, you're able to switch it out! If you get a certain amount of items won, you can upgrade for bigger/better prizes at the counter. Super friendly staff and clean place. They also had cool toys to choose from! Will definitely be back! read more

Cali Claw - Arcades Near Me - Concord, California

10/10 - definitely 5 This place is super clean and has great prizes. The staff is super friendly and they even give you tips on how to win the prizes. My son really wanted this one specific item and the guy their helped him with tips/tricks how to get it. Both of my kids said it was the best claw machine place they've been to because the claws actually worked well and it's guaranteed you will win a prize. They also have trade ups where you can trade your smaller winnings for bigger prizes. We will definitely be going back and will bring more friends with us next time. Thank you to all the crew at Cali Claw - Concord!!! read more

We stopped by Cali Claw on a drive back from the north bay and we had a great time! My whole family have a soft spot for claw machines, though we know it can quickly become a money pit. However the owner was so kind, and he made sure we all had a good experience. He made it easier for my young kids to win some goodies, and threw in extra tokens so we could extend our fun. The place was clean, and there was a variety of prizes in each machine. Thank you to Cali Claw! read more

Cali Claw is an absolute blast! 10/10 would recommend! The tokens you get are definitely worth it, and you're almost guaranteed to win every time. The owner (or the guy running the place) is incredibly friendly and helpful--he even gives you tips to increase your chances and will set up the claw machine to make sure you grab your prize. It's a charming little hole-in-the-wall spot that's full of fun. I'll definitely be returning. Love this place read more

Super cool staff and easy machines to win on definitely worth a visit. They want the kids to win even if you win a prize you could swap it for a different prize I've never seen a claw machine business do that. Highly recommend for the family or if you like to win. read more

Cali Claw - Prizes - Arcades Near Me - Concord, California

I've only written a few reviews. That's because I'm lazy and I don't review places unless they are extraordinarily good or bad. Cali Claw is great! There are a lot of claw machines out there that scam you for your hard earned money. But not the ones at Cali Claw. Don't get me wrong, you're not going to win every time, so don't expect to. There's luck and skill involved. But the chances of you leaving the place with a cute stuffy in your hand is way higher at Cali Claw than anywhere else. The owners are fantastic. They give you tips on how to win, they are kind, and sometimes they will even go as far as placing a prize on the edge of the chute just so you can easily win it. When I went, there was a kid with a garbage bag full of prizes. Not sure how much he spent, but I spent $25 and left with 5 medium sized prizes and a smile on my face. I took kids in their teens and they also had a great time. This is a gem of a place and the owners earn and deserve all the business they get. read more

New awesome claw arcade that just opened in the area! Family friendly AND pet friendly! Management is very helpful providing tips on how to win. They also allow reshuffles of the machine if requested. They have great deals on tokens too! For their larger claw machines, it's 1 token for 1 play. For their mini-claw machines, it's 1 token for 2 plays. I would definitely recommend stopping by if you are in the area! read more

The guy gave us extra tokens made it easier he was nice and added a trading system where you can trade plushies for bigger plushies

So much fun we had here today !!! Raul is a sweet guy and very kind . Highly recommended we will definitely be back read more

Honestly I think those two one star reviews are just mad because they're unskilled/impatient. Been here a few times and didn't take anything home, but I'm definitely not crying about it. And just like everyone else mentioned, they helped rearrange prizes so I would actually be in a winning position. Ended up missing, but the kid after me got it and so did a few others, so I highly doubt this place is a scam. Would rather spend my money at a small mom and pop like this too instead of going to round 1 at 2 or 3 times the price. Also... these places are still here to make some kinda profit to stay in business. They can't just give out prizes, but the extra tokens give for a chance to win is more than I can ask for. What kind of lesson does it teach your kid if you give them something for losing? Safe to say I'll be back many more times so I can get enough prizes in the bank to trade for one of those giant plushies above the machines! read more

My husband and I have been really into claw machines lately and we were so happy to see this place open near us! The owner was very welcoming and gave us the whole run down. There's a great assortment of plushies and blind boxes. You can swap plushies that come from the same machine. If you win more than 3, you could also swap for a bigger plushie on the shelves. We cannot wait to come back! read more

Love this new claw arcade that opened up! It's located near Todos Santos Plaza in Concord! The owner is very nice and welcoming when you come in. They have different prizes in the claw machines. If there are multiple prizes in the machine, you can swap out your prize for the one you want. 10/10 recommend! read more

I didn't know this place was here until I saw the flag outside when I was next door. It's small but great for kids and prices are much more reasonable than most arcades. Staff is nice and will give you tips on how to win the prizes. The stuffed toys are actually really cute too. read more

This is our second time here and it was so much fun for the kiddos the first time we made the drive to come out again especially since we had some coins left over since the kids were so successful. This time around was a bit more challenging for the kids and after using their coins they only won 4 toys total between 3 kids playing with 142 tokens. I was upset hearing the kids complaining about not winning and when we left they started crying so I went back in and after talking to the woman behind the desk she explained the games more in detail and explained how we could have a better experience next time and one of the employees grabbed some extra coins and gave some great tips and helped the kids each get one more stuffie on their own. I will recommend this place 1 million times over because they could've been defensive and turned me away and blamed the kids but they instead used it as an opportunity to create an experience for the girls and as a mother that's worth more than anything. I'd say this place is family friendly and worth a try thank you all for helping the girls again. read more

Cool little spot to spend time time while at Todos Santos. The owners are incredibly nice. The machines are new and you can actually win stuff here. Clean shop and it's not to loud. My son and I really enjoyed it here. read more

Cali Claw - For the win! - Arcades Near Me - Concord, California

I saw this place on TikTok and my kids love claw machines. This place is amazing. The owner greeted us and went over the different token packages and prizes we could trade up. He even gave us a few extra tokens and helped my younger son win the kitty he really wanted. If you are looking for a fun place to take the family or a date, I highly recommended Cali Claw. The owner and his son were so nice and welcoming. We will definitely be back! read more

First time here and my kids had a blast. Owners were really nice and helped explain how to win some plushies. Even moved some plushies to make it easier for my kids to win. Definitely a hidden gem and will definitely come back here with the kiddos or just the wifey on a date night. read more

Wow. If you've ever wanted to watch your money disappear in real time, Cali claw machines delivers. The claw has the grip strength of a sleepy kitten and lets go of prizes faster than you or your child can say "rip-off." You could drop a brick into this thing and it still wouldn't make it to the prize chute. I'm convinced it's here solely to teach kids disappointment early in life. Save your coins--buy a snack or, better yet, toss them directly in the trash. At least that way, you skip the false hope. read more

Love the selection of machines, love the location, and love the owners. We always come out winners are feel welcome.

The staff was very friendly and helpful. We came home with two prizes and had so much fun. Great for date night or family fun. I highly recommend and will be coming back read more

Cali Claw - Very cute claw machine place for kids and adults! - Arcades Near Me - Concord, California

If you like claw machines, this is the place to be. I used to go to Round1 for the claw machines but since trying this place, I haven't looked back! Caliclaw is my favorite place to go for claw machines now. The people who run the place are so awesome and nice. They're approachable and very available to help you out with anything without hovering which I greatly appreciate. They'll offer to rearrange the prizes in the machine so it's easier. You can also switch the prize you win for any prize from the same machine so you can always just aim for the easier one to win. Also also, you can bank/deposit your wins back to them and trade up for any of their bigger prizes on the shelves/on top of the machines either same day or at a later visit. On my third visit, I accumulated enough prizes and was able to trade up for one of the huge Sanrio Kuromi plushies that they had. Pic attached! 10/10 I'm forever trying to win the biggest prizes which is almost unfortunate for me because their smaller/mini claw machines have the cutest prizes actually. Bonus: they have cool token deals, so depending on how much you buy, you get extra. Everytime I buy them straight from someone working the front, they throw in some extra "warm-up" tokens. They also sell blind boxes! The first time I went, my cousin pulled exactly what she wanted from BOTH blind boxes that she bought. I can't recommend this place enough honestly. Everyone should go and try it out. read more

Our 2nd time to visit!! Owners were so amazing! He gave my daughter few tokens for free.Ready to help and smiling. Worth the drive from sacramento to concord for Cali claw!!! Thank you again!! read more

Can't recommend this place enough. Took my 5 year old (who is obsessed with claw machines - and actually really good at them). She was amazed when she walked in. We had a great time together playing the games. We walked away with 6 new toys! And the family that owns and runs it were INSANELY nice and helpful. It felt good to know we were supporting a great local family. Can't wait to go back and bring the rest of my family! read more

Awesome new business in Concord! Brought the kids in today and we had a blast! Owners are super nice and the prizes are so fun! The place is clean and well kept. Great place for family fun or for a date! Support your local small business. We can't wait to come back! read more

Super cute spot. My girls (9 and 12) had a great time. Owners are very sweet. They even have a trading system if you want to trade your stuffies for larger ones. I recommend this location. Support local owners. read more

We love this place! Great value and great location! Great for adults and kids! I definitely recommend!

OMG. What a great family. They really want you learn and love the claw as much as they do!

This place is amazing, but not as amazing as the owner. It was such a fun time and he would even give us tips, would "re-fluff" the machines, and gave us an opportunity to try to win the prize we wanted. The price is very reasonable and I would love to come back and be a regular patron. Thank you so much for a wonderful evening! read more

Cali Claw - Small claw machine - Arcades Near Me - Concord, California

Fun family owned claw machine spot. Prizes were cute and trendy like Pokemon, Labubu, One Piece, Stitch and other cutesy plushies. With the mini machines you get 2 tries per token which I think is awesome especially for the little kids to win. Employees were very helpful with repositioning the prizes and would offer tips on how to win. They were actively trying to help us win a Stitch in 1 of the machines which was surprising, and we ended up winning it! Yay! After our winnings, it came out to about $10 a plushie which isn't too bad! I would recommend this place for a quick claw machine fix for date night, kids play date or just something to do. You can also trade your smaller plushies for a bigger one - and they offer a "bank" where you can trade it at the store and they create an account to "hold" it for you, a great idea instead of lugging all the "meh" plushies home. Another fun fact is that they do offer you tokens to play vs a virtual card to swipe (vs Round1) - and my kids loved putting the tokens in each machine. Highly recommend for friends and family to visit! They do have AC, but no restrooms - important factor when going with the kids. read more

Stumbled upon this place on yelp and so glad we did! As soon as we walked through the door, we noticed how clean it was and there was so many awesome prizes! The owners were so welcoming and very friendly. They told our kids that if they win a prize at a claw machine but there was a different one they wanted in the same machine, they would let you swap it out! You can also trade in your prizes for a bigger plush at the counter. My daughter is a huge Kuromi fan so it was awesome how they had a good amount of Kuromi prizes. I also love how they sell blind boxes bc my daughter loves them too! Highly recommend! We will definitely come back! read more

Great place! Just took my 10yr daughter she had a great time. Very friendly staff. We will be back soon thank you!

Decided last minute to visit this awesome business today with our 2 young kids. I don't write many reviews, but came to write one after our wonderful experience. Not surprisingly, I came onto Yelp to find perfect reviews and dozens of experiences just like ours! The owner was there with his family, and he was so amazingly helpful and kind with our kids. My youngest was getting frustrated with her attempts, and he helped with some extra free tries and rearranging the toys to help her out. Both kids left with several small toys and are excited to return! Service is definitely top notch here, and you get more than what you pay for. read more
