    The motorcycle race
    Lyndsay B.

    The Salem Willows Arcade is one of two arcades that line the strip of amusements and food of Salem Willows. This arcade is just that - an arcade. Go in expecting to find video games, pin ball, dirty floors and people, and no A/C. Of course, if this is what you're looking for, then it's perfect. Personally, I love how kitchy it all is. Most of the games are throwbacks to the 80's. Some of the games even date back to the 40's and 50's. How fun is it to find out if you're a good kisser or how much you weigh (for 10 cents!)? It's very fun. :o) Overall, a good arcade for kids and friends. There is this one motorcycle game that you can race against three of your closest friends. It's from the early 90's, but really fun. You even get to sit on the motorcycles!!

    Spend an hour there with my boyfriend and we had fun. Ended up spending another 10$ because we were having too much fun. The place has a wildwood boardwalk kinda feel. Perfect for summer nights.

    Tickets, tickets.  it's all about the ring pops and air heads you can earn with all those tickets.

    See all

    Plenty of really good pinball games, air hockey tables, even super old-timey treasures like Zoltan and the dancing monkeys.

    We LOVE IT HERE! The upgrade is awesome! You can now order your food at a kiosk and sit to play &…read moreeat! My son and I come here for 1/2 off games for double the fun & we can stay for hours! The person who runs the kiosk for redemption is also super kind & helpful always when I see him! ** if you're a beer snob, they also offer Maine Lunch Beer which is such a plus!! Overall, very fun place to bring your kids and or even just come for a date night!

    I went here for a kids birthday party. They have separate party rooms upstairs. As soon as you walk…read morein there are digital boards that tell you which numbered room your party is in. Though there was no host at the front desk at all which was a bummer. There is a coat rack outside of room with number tags to take. The kids love it especially for the laser tag room down the hall from the rooms. The rooms are small and narrow so if you have a lot of people coming there is room acrosd from the party rooms on same floor for parents to mingle in the lounge like area. The staff for the party rooms are a great help when it comes to setting up, directing and time to eat and cake time etc.... Once you are out that room though it may be hard to contain the kids because there's is a lot to do downstairs w prepaid cards as part of the package you choose. They also have the human claw game. The reason I have it 3 stars was because there was no front desk staff and the amount of tickets you have to get to get a decent prize is ridiculous. The quality of prizes are not that great for your ticket amount and they are not very exciting. It is a great place for ages 7-12. It's like a mock version of something like Dave and Busters. Parents make sure to keep an eye on your kids because its easy to run down thr kind stairs from the party room.

    ​If you've seen photos of Salem, you've seen this building. The massive, gothic, red-brick church…read moreexterior is easily the most iconic photo op in the city. Inside, however, the vibe is a bit of a time capsule. It feels like a mix between a theater and a history classroom--very "vintage 1970s" but in a way that feels like a Salem rite of passage. ​ ​The museum is divided into two parts: ​The Main Show: You sit in a large, darkened room while life-sized dioramas light up around the perimeter to a narrated soundtrack. It tells the story of the 1692 trials with a lot of drama. It's definitely "campy" and a bit dated, but it's a solid, digestible overview of the history. ​The Guided Exhibit: After the show, a staff member leads you through a second area that explains the evolving image of "the witch" through time. This part felt much more modern and actually touched on some interesting social themes like scapegoating. ​Duration: Plan for about 1 hour total. ​Booking: This is the most important tip--book your tickets online in advance! Especially in the shoulder seasons or October, they sell out hours (or days) ahead. Don't expect to just walk up to the door and get in. ​Price: At around $19, it's a bit pricier than the smaller museums, but it's the "big one" that most people feel they have to check off their list.

    I thought this was great. We arrived just in time for the 12pm start so had a few minutes to use…read morethe restroom. Upon starting you're in a large room which has various mini displays that are highlighted as the story goes along. Sadly people were talking during the presentation so it kinda ruined part of the vibe. The history was easy to digest and informative. The second pet was a lady speaking about the various exhibits in the room. The timeline was interesting to see when different events occurred in relation to others. Took about 40 min for the entire thing and found a cool monopoly type game in the gift shop!
