If that's your thing & you want an excursion that's right for a group, a family, a date or just a way to burn a few hours, get out here & enjoy 18 holes of old skool mini golf. We also raced in the go karts (not too fast at all, but do wear closed toe shoes if you plan on driving). Lines get going around 11/11:15 so we got there a few minutes before and had the race track to ourselves - Shake & Bake, baby! The huge trees & landscaping kept us cool & mostly shaded though next time I'll bring a hat as there was a light wind & bits of the tree debris floated down. They've also got a sweet game arcade, snack bar & bumper boats. TLDR: 50th Anniversary of a Tucson fave. Silly, affordable & fun.

They have lots of new and old school games to play inside, food and drink options and of course a prize wall! The staff was friendly and helpful, the bathroom and grounds were clean. I definitely recommend this place for all ages any time you're looking for something fun to do.

I like the old-school video games and Cobra delivers in this area. Second of all, their drinks are delicious. I'm someone who only likes fruity things that don't taste like alcohol at all, and their fun menu that has themes related to certain video games is perfect for that. The music is good, and they use tokens, which I personally love. This is a fun place to go with friends or on a date. When a machine breaks they are quick to fix it and help you with a token refund if necessary.

I've been to Dave & Buster's before in California, but this is my first time actually going to one in Arizona and this one's located at the Tucson marketplace. I've been to other Arcade parties but compared to Peter Piper's or Chuck E Cheese the atmosphere I much prefer. I went at 8 pm and the place was not crazy busy, with many families enjoying food in booths and gaming. The father of my Godson was playing trivia in the bar area/dinning area guarding with birthday presents. I found the seats really comfortable with a full bar available and a number of people enjoying beers at the bar with food. The selection of games to play was so vast for the kids. The God kids are under ten years old, so older children might have different tastes, but plenty of skeet ball, claw machines, racer games were available, as well as traditional arcade video games. I played a round of trivia with six other players and won that round. I prefer with night time atmosphere at Dave and Busters to the bright dining space of Peter Piper. I think because it was the latest time of day I've ever gone to a arcade party, there were far fewer kids yelling and having melt downs. This was the most positive experience attending a party an arcade that I ever remember having. It was so fun. The family had food and play packages for the event and you pick how much play you want; prices vary dramatically from $19 for $10 of play and an appetizer, to the upper end of a $60 power card for unlimited play all day plus an appetizer. The store had its own specials and i believe the family had two $40 power cards that were gifted by an uncle for gaming. During the time I was there, many staff came by to make check if I needed food and drink while I was enjoying the trivia. Due to winning a round of trivia, we were given a voucher for the arcade prize store, which had the kids happy with more spending power. Mission accomplished for a happy birthday.

I usually keep to just flasking it to Solar culture, but the lax, BYOB closed-container policy creates a unique house party concert vibe without the hours of standing around while your friends try to make their music equipment work properly. Although its not to far removed from such an experience since Solar culture is primarily an arthouse, doesn't have the greatest soundsystem and setup you will ever see, and I think for the most part the workforce and performers are as high as the patrons. I have dealt with a share of long waits between sets and all-to-average sound from Deerhoof, Voxtrot, Architecture in Helsinki, and the like. You also might have to bring a pair of binoculars to a show if you get there late to a packed house because of its awkward long and narrow build. There are great views of the band because of the raised stage, but once it gets past half capacity you might have to barter your way up closer with some of the cans of PBR you have in your Jansport. I was also permanently mentally scared by this place when Death From Above 1979 canceled their show there the day of. They never came back, and now they are gone. I can't help but think of how excited I was for that show (more then any other to date) and how heart-broken I was whenever I think of this place. *goes to cry beneath his desk*

Off to one side, past the stage coach, is a merry-go-round and ferris wheel for the smalls. (You can see them from part of the parking lot.) At the back, through a couple of arches you'll find a mission with fountian in the courtyard. Behind a stockade fence is a show venue. A small train you can ride travels around the outskirts of the property. Cost is one wooden nickle. Ice cream, a candy shop, a breakfast restaurant (open 6am-2pm), a day spa, photographer and several other businesses rent space in Trail Dust Town. Shows, the train and kiddie rides open at 5pm while other businesses open earlier. It's a very fun space to walk around. Enjoy the artifacts (gold panning, horse tack, barbed wire) and the recreated old western town atmosphere. Plenty of parking all around the town with handicap spots right along the road side. An ATM is on the sidewalk near the fort side of town. A small water fountain for your fur baby is near the train depot. Restrooms are inside Pinnacle Peak.

From there, I walked to this old West dust town experience for an hour or two. Some things I learned: stop by on a weekend rather than a weekday like me. Why? A good number of things are closed during the week. Most notably, their gunfighting performance which I was most looking forward to. Some of the shops, restaurants, and attractions are also closed. Despite the limited experience, I still enjoyed it. I first stopped by the saloon for a drink. Naturally. It was happy hour, so I got a discount on an orange blossom beer. Solid beer at a solid price. From there, I walked around taking it all in. I checked out several of the shops. And I enjoyed the sunset. All in all, while it's not huge, I enjoyed it. If you have kids, they will like it even more.
