    Came here with my significant other and honestly, the staff is what made this entire experience…read morewhat it was. Were all the games working? No. Did we run into a couple of issues? Absolutely. But somehow, every time we had a problem, someone was there ready to fix it like we had just activated the Bat-Signal. And they did it with a smile, even though it was VERY obvious they were running around like their lives depended on it. Trace, the Bar/Floor Manager, was clearly doing the work of approximately 47 people at once, and yet somehow still had time to be attentive, kind, and sociable with us. I genuinely don't know how he was doing it. Man was everywhere. Craig and Colton, the Floor Managers, were also fantastic. Every time we had a question or concern, they helped us without ever making us feel like we were interrupting their already chaotic Saturday night. And then Timothy, Trenton, and Austin were equally awesome! At this point, I'm convinced they don't actually hire employees here -- they recruit people who have an unusually high tolerance for chaos and an Olympic-level ability to remain cheerful. The funniest part is that the couple of issues we ran into were almost worth it because we got to interact with all of these guys, joke around, and laugh with them. They somehow managed to turn "well, this game isn't working" into "well, at least we're having a great time." That's customer service done RIGHT. And seriously, HUGE credit to all of them for keeping that kind of energy on a Saturday night. It was busy, and I'm sure a couple of things were going sideways, and I'm sure everyone was running on approximately 3% battery -- yet they were still friendly, patient, and genuinely fun to be around. Rock the eff on, dudes!! You guys deserve ALL the praise. Seriously. Give these men a raise, a trophy, a vacation, and maybe a medically supervised nap. Thank you again for everything!! You made the experience unforgettable, and we genuinely had a blast because of you guys!

    Took my team here for team bonding, and bowled during the week. The place was very quiet and empty,…read morewe came in, and we helped right away by the attendant working the counter. Although no one else seemed to be present while we bowled, we just wanted to get a water of some sort, but no one was available to help. If I come back, it would be during peak hours.

    My daughter and I were visiting some friends in Rockford, when we decided to go to Chuck E. Cheese…read morefor play and lunch as my 3 year old had never been before. We did the one hour unlimited game pass, personal cheese pizza and salad bar for a grand total of $66. I always forget how expensive this place is, and was annoyed that the Chuck E Cheese car no longer has the camera, and the sketch picture was down as well. That kind of defeats the entire Chuck E Cheese experience. The bathrooms are gross, but I appreciate that the sinks are low enough for the littles. The salad bar was lacking, but what you'd expect from a pizza place. My daughter had fun, but I feel that there are newer children's places that will give you more bang for your buck.

    Love this spot! Came here all the time as a kid and hardly recognized it coming back as an adult…read more It's been completely renovated and looks much more modern and new. They have games for just about every age of kid, and they even do monthly subscriptions that are a crazy good value if you plan on coming even 1 time a month (but if your kids are anything like mine, they will beg to come here way more often than once a month) They don't do a coin system anymore, they give you a play card and load it with a certain amount of credits. You then use that card to tap on whatever game you want, and it will tell you how many credits you have left. It also stores the tickets on there which is way better than carrying stacks of physical tickets with you all day. The manager at this location is super friendly and helpful. Most of the employees are too. Would highly recommend this place, and even more so getting a monthly subscription here, especially if you have kids (or even if you don't, I think I have just as much fun as they do!)

    We attended there because a friend invited my kids to join them,…read moreFirst, it would have been nice to know that you DO NOT need to purchase bounce house tickets for kids not wanting to bounce. They only have something like 3 bounce houses. $36 for 2 kids, and one not to jump was pricey. It is $18 per person (4 and older) on the weekends, cheaper if you go on a weekday. The Arcade... So, apparently, a good deal, 100 tokens for $20. So, we split the tokens 50/50. I was shocked when my child was frustrated because a ticket based arcade did not work, and we realized it required 4 tokens! The number of machines that required 4 tokens seemed to be in the majority. Most places we have been to, the higher token machines were typically the race car driving machines, where machines that give tickets typically range in the 1-2 token family group. Now, I saw that someone mentioned that the arcade accepted 1-4 tokens, I did not find (on 4/25/2025 any that accepted only 1 token. Not saying that they were not there... I just did not find them. I did find a few that accepted 2 tokens or 3 tokens though. They do have some sort of bowling game that required 8 tokens in the back corner. While we were there yesterday, on a Saturday afternoon, it was really quite empty, we did not see anyone working the concession area at all. Thankfully, we brought water bottles. While there I did see a frustrated parent who paid $14 (children 3 and under rate), because the bounce houses were geared toward that age group. Overall - over priced.

    This was completely unexpected. You would never guess there was an arcade in what is practically…read morean industrial park. First arcade I've ever seen with a bouncy house Pros: +Solid selection of games including ticket games +Good facilities for birthday parties +Staff was pretty attentive +Good restrooom facilities. Hey... thats important for a place like this. Cons: -Not the most expensive arcade I've been to, but its still a money suck -Area can be a little tight for manuevering Bottom Line: A lot of the 5 stars are warranted. I admit I'm a bit of a snob when it coems to arcades. Not the best I've been to, but very solid. Glad this place is in the community.

    I'm not 100% sure how this place stays open after all of these years, but good for them!…read more I only make my way in once a year during a bike event in the area. Came here in September, so many of the games and machines weren't even working, some didn't spit out any tickets. Fun place to entertain kids with something to do, but work on fixing machines.

    This place is pretty cool and a trip back in time. The guy who I think is the owner (very tall guy…read morewith a beard & mustache) was very nice. The prices are amazing, but I really think the guy should increase the prices to at least .25 cents to .50 cents a game. My husband and I were baffled how a profit is made, especially after paying the rent, electricity, other utilities & costs, especially with how expensive everything is now days. I mean some of the games didn't work or stopped working after a while of playing them several times (but then again, the same happens at other expensive arcades, too), but I still didn't mind that much or even bugged the guy to fix them or get a refund since the price is SOOO low there. I'm not used to those prices, even in my childhood in the 80's and 90's, which were .25-.50 even then. I wish the guy much success and really admire his lack of greed and wanting fun to be affordable to all, but I still think he can increase the prices a bit and it still be affordable, and maybe the increase can help to invest towards the upkeep of the machines. Either way, cool place and cool guy!
