Me and my family and I have been coming to the seafood fest for 20+ years... We look forward to going to funarama every single year. Prior years, it's been nothing short of amazing. Unfortunately this year I can't say the same; my seven month old baby was sitting on the Dino, one in which we all have done every single year since we were babies ourselves. However, the fun was ruined this year when Justin Bieber wanna be came storming by yelling at us to get off of the ride, we looked at him like what are you talking about? We've been doing this for 20+ years. He then pointed to the sign rudely as if we couldn't read and said kids only. He then stormed away shouting for everyone to hear that you must be under 70 pounds. He really sure did take the fun out of FUNarama. :( read more

Machines are worn out or broke, on a cool night you will sweat like a pig because of no fans or air conditioners.... The staff are not helpful. Ticket prices for dollar tree toys are like 5000 tickets. It's Insane. read more

If there was a zero I would post it. Spent a decent amount of money on this machine for my first child that will be born next week. All I wanted was a small octopus for her. Ask the guy fixing it about getting one since I've been playing and it wasn't closing, he said no and was nasty about it. read more

Funarama - Arcades Near Me - Hampton, New Hampshire

Broken machines that eat quarters or don't give out tickets. You have to track down workers and they don't even shut down the machine for the next person. read more

Excellent!! A destination for the ages and many of the games have been around for ages. That makes it half the fun. Each summer a pilgrimage to Funarama is near the top of everyone's list for a multitude of different reasons. My son's prefer the games of chance and usually do score big ticket wins. My daughter and I prefer the games of skill including skeet ball and air hockey. While we own our own commercial grade air hockey table, there is nothing like playing at Funorama. I suppose it's like skating at the Bahstin Gahdin as opposed to a rink in your back yahd. The girls like the coin push games. We all rack up tickets at skeet ball and keep track of who gets the highest scores, only brining the topic up if we are ahead. There are state of the art video games and every type of game on earth. With most you get tickets for stuffed animals and junk to take home. All on all there is something for everyone. read more

Been going to this arcade since 2002, Alot of great games in this arcade such as Deal or No Deal, Wheel of Furtune, Ms. Pac-Man, Q-bert, Six gun Select, Connect four Ticket game, Bat-man. There are a few things I just don't like about this arcade, there need to be more updated and new pinball machines. most of the pinball games are very out dated such as Adams Family, Monopoly, and South Park. Next, a few great new pinball games would be Wizard of Oz, Mustang 2015, Walking Dead, and Star Trek. Last this is a fun place to go to if you are ever at Hampton Beach to play Skee Ball, Video Games, Pinball, or any redemption games. read more

Funarama - cool classic games from the 1980's - Arcades Near Me - Hampton, New Hampshire

I always find myself going to this arcade whenever I go to Hampton Beach. It is a very nice arcade in general, right on the boardwalk portion of the beach where many different attractions are, from the Casino ballroom, to the shooting galleries, and especially to the food stands. That being said though, there are a few things that I specifically have to point out about this place that....well....annoy me. As much as I like going to this place, every time I go there, I feel like the entire arcade is handled very poorly as a business in general. There are three specific points I want to make in terms of this place not being maintained well: #1: The staff are hardly ever around when you have a problem, and the majority of the time, they aren't even paying attention to what is going on around the arcade. I tend to usually see staff members either on their cell phones, or even playing arcade games themselves once in a while! #2: I feel like this place is cleaned once in a blue moon when I go there. Granted, I have seen people sweeping the floors of this place late at night before closing time, but as far as the machines go, I always tend to see fingerprints all over the place, meaning that the machines themselves probably don't get cleaned very often (and that can lead to health problems if you ask me, but I hope that I'm wrong on this one in terms of how often the place is cleaned.) #3, and most importantly, There has NEVER been a time that I have gone to this arcade without seeing AT LEAST 15 of the arcade machines being broken, out of order, missing parts, or just malfunctioning in general. In my opinion, the people that run this place tend to think that they can order a new machine when a new arcade game comes out, place it in the arcade, and let it run itself for an entire summer season without any issues. It does NOT work like that. I have worked at an arcade myself for many years, and I can tell you that it is crucial to keep games working properly not just to keep your business running well, but also to not make your business look like it isn't maintained properly. In the end, I do like this arcade and I do recommend it if you're looking for something fun to do if you're in the Hampton Beach area. However, there are many other arcades that I can think of that are handled MUCH better in terms of both business and maintenence-wise, such as Joe's Playland in Salisbury, and also Funspot up in Laconia. But overall, I would recommend this arcade to everyone, because it is definitely one of my favorite spots to go whenever I am down at Hampton Beach myself. read more

Brings back tons of childhood and young adult memories. All the bells and whistles clamoring, tickets spewing out of skeeball games and the sound of quarters being lost forever. Good times! Even smells the same. Oddly though it closes at 7pm on Sundays. Weird? They have to literally turn off the power to the machines because people won't leave. Isn't that a good thing? lol... Well enough of me walking down Memory Lane. I have to go turn in my 1000 tickets for a pencil with a funny erasure. read more

Funarama - Lotta quarters lost here - Arcades Near Me - Hampton, New Hampshire

Awesome arcade! Adorable counter girl spent half an hour with my kids, such patience! Will be going back!

None of the games were dispensing tickets and when we complained we got a lot of attitude

This arcade has always been a runner up to Playland down the strip but it is just awful now. The top level is fine if you have very small kids as there are a bunch of rides that just jostle kids around. Fun for babies. The rest of the arcade offerings are a bunch of ticket dispensing rip offs & busted old cabinet games. The video games that there are run about a 50% chance of eating quarters or just not working. The skeeball is chintzy and also very broken. The people who work there are your classic summer teens who could not care less. The whole place is dimly lit and feels dirty. Oh, and there are a LOT of slot machines that you can play for tickets. That is what your grandma needs to do at the beach. Play slots so she can get you that super swell Chinese finger trap. Hopefully writing this review will finally cement in my mind to stop stepping in the door. read more

The place does have a good mixture of old and newer games. You can't find tapper in many places. But my issues with the place is that it's run by people that don't really care. When a game malfunctions there is no one to be found and this happened at least three times. The place is very dirty. Would it kill someone to clean those giant fans. I wish I took a picture. Dust literally caked on the fans. If you're in Hampton go to the other arcade and if not stick to Dave and busters. read more

Your games are rigged! Bad business. I am quite disappointed with the level of cheating by the machines. Don't waste your time and money.

It was a very large arcade with lots of games of all ages. A bit warm in there but it was crowded and you are bound to get a little hot while playing games anyways. I was impressed with the size and the types of games. Some of the machines were out of tickets so if you played you kind of lost out on your money/ tickets. I had fun though. read more
