    Zap! Zap! Pow! Pow! Click! Click! Clank! Clank! Beep! Beeeep! Do you like arcade games? If yes,…read moreSmitty's GameLAB is a great establishment that is loaded with arcade games -- lots & lots of them. Yep, whack-a-mole is on-site -- plus, that game where you sit on a small, stationary motorcycle & do things like lean & turn on it, etc. You know the one...yep, it's on-site too. VROOOM!!! Skee-Ball + the claw machine will leave you wanting more & more tries! GameLAB is connected to Smitty's legendary dine-in movie theater -- where you can feast on an entire chicken dinner while watching one of today's top flicks. The atmosphere at GameLAB is electric & loud (like, very loud -- so fyi, if you hate noise). Flashing lights, kids running amuck & the sound of laughter will surround your being. GameLAB has bowling! A restaurant! A big ole bar! And prizes! We ordered wings & beer & a buffalo chicken wrap w/ fries -- all of which were comforting & executed to dining satisfaction. I ate all of my fries. Oops, burp. I didn't try a slice, but their pizza looked amazing too -- the pie had favorable elements on it like cheese & a crust. Iconic. Waitstaff was friendly. I liked them. They were juggling a lot but checked in with us frequently. That was kind.

    GameLab is a great place to go for a date, family get together, or to hangout with friends.

Have always been happy with their service - definitely check it out!!

    It's a fine enough store with a good selection, but the guy behind the counter seemed irritated…read morewhen I asked about their pull list system. I tried to register online and ran into issues; when I went back in, it felt like more of a hassle for Mr. Beanie-Glasses-¿Chin-Strap-Beard? (hard to really remember). This kind of dismissive behavior isn't uncommon in comic book shops. Having been a regular reader for years, I can confidently say there's a certain hipster element embedded in comic culture that lacks the self-awareness that the "better-than-you" attitude is a dime a dozen. I place my weekly pulls with Casablanca Comics, where the staff are not only enjoyable to talk with, but actually remember your name and want to help. This shouldn't discount the efforts of the other, surely more personable employees--nor at least a visit or two to check out their selection--but it definitely detracts from any kind of regular patronage.

    I visited Coast City Comics during my recent vacation to Maine. It was a cold, rainy day - my first…read moreday in Portland - so I was looking for cool, fun things to do. The actual name of this place is: "Coast City Comics & The Fun Box Monster Emporium." There is a ton of comic books, games, action figures, and related "stuff" crammed into this place. There are a number of pinball machines stuffed into the back of the shop. Very cool comic book shop. I think they need a bigger space! #CoastCityComicsAndTheFunBoxMonsterEmporium

    I used to really like this place. It has a great selection of game, however the prices have gone up…read moreso much I can't really recommend it. It used to be really affordable, 20 bucks used to get so many points I couldn't use them all. But now the majority of machines cost over 10 points to use. The chicken tenders are SO good for no reason I swear they put crack in it. The staff are always friendly which is a plus. Games are crammed into this space and it's sensory hell for some people. It's so loud you have to yell for your friends to hear you.

    My family and I have been several times and have generally enjoyed our time. It's very, very loud…read more There are a variety of games my kids both really enjoy, the concessions are pretty good, and the prizes are... well, they're prizes. Haven't tried the billiards or bowling yet. However, today I had a very poor customer service experience in the prize area. My partner got a pillow/plush item and the cashier failed to end that transaction before starting to scan my items - the first of which he could not identify and didn't seem to know how to look it up in the computer or the binder. After realizing his mistake, he insisted I needed to get my partner's card before he could fix it. What if the previous customer had been a stranger? Several minutes later, he finally sought a manager and the issue was eventually resolved. All of this would have just been simply frustrating and I wouldn't have gone on the company website to complain and wouldn't have jumped on yelp to update my review here. However, the cashier also misgendered myself and my partner more than a dozen times directly to my face and in conversation with his manager and a third employee, all in front of multiple customers. Abhorrent behavior. Tainted my experience today at Round One and has me thinking twice about returning in the future.

    I want to give a huge thank you to Luis at Spare Time for making our day so much better. Three of…read moreus had spent a long time playing games, earning tickets, and working hard to save up for a prize we all wanted. When it came time to redeem our tickets, we spent nearly 30 minutes talking and trying to figure out the best way to use them. We wanted to make sure everyone agreed on what to get, and eventually we decided that the giant beach ball would be the perfect prize for all of us to share. At first, we were told that we couldn't get the beach ball because it was supposed to be won through a specific game or method. We completely understood the rules, but after spending so much time earning tickets and carefully deciding together, it was disappointing to think we wouldn't be able to get the one thing we all agreed on. That's when Luis stepped in. Instead of just saying no and moving on, he took the time to listen to us and understand the situation. He saw how much effort we had put into earning our tickets and how long we had spent making our decision. Luis showed kindness, understanding, and genuine care for making sure we had a great experience. He talked with the other employee and helped make it possible for us to redeem our tickets for the giant beach ball. What might have seemed like a small thing to some people meant a lot to us. Luis turned what could have been a disappointing ending into a really memorable and positive experience. He treated us with respect, listened to what we had to say, and went above and beyond to help us. Employees like Luis are the reason people want to come back. His customer service, patience, and willingness to help made our visit special, and we are incredibly grateful. Thank you, Luis, for making our day and showing what great customer service really looks like!
