It's only been open a few months... same shopping center as Mumuyj Bakery. The name of the place is perfect... everything inside is a definite throwback to the days of old school arcade games and nostalgic toy displays. Quarters are tight and the flow of customers were pretty constant for a Sunday afternoon! We came here for a birthday party and no child left unfulfilled! Games, pizza, wings... a great time was had by all! We will definitely be back.

Fix It Felix Jr ARCADE

Throwbacks is an AMAZING ARCADE! With a huge selection of pinball machines new and vintage! The food was amazing and I highly recommend their different burger selections! There is a game for everyone to play from kids to adults and Throwbacks is adding to their selection with the most recent addition of FIX IT FELIX JR ARCADE! Check this GEM out as I regularly do and look forward to going back to set a new high score on the Wreck It Ralph themed arcade game!

Jags Pizza

Great games, lots of vintage stuff! You buy a wrist band and then have free play which we loved. The food is DELICIOUS. We got the Jags pizza and it's a lot of food for a great price and it's soooo so yummy. Totally recommend their speciality pizzas! They also make an effort to support local breweries & are vet owned. Thanks for a great time!

Cute arcade, friendly staff, wristbands for all you can play $20 16 and up; $10 for ages 6-15, free for littles; good selection of beers; pizza and lumpia were tasty! They have happy hour M-Th afternoons. College football on Saturday and Jags on Sunday; Magic, Pokémon, Yu-Gi-Oh, other cards next door!

Updated my review as they have some kinks in their POS system. We never got a physical check - they just ran the card when we were done eating and we didn't notice it was incorrect until after we left. Everything is ordered on a small hand held device and our bartender had some issues with it which probably led to our order being incorrect. Definitely our mistake as it could have been fixed if we noticed it right away- so double check before you leave.

Great place to play some retro arcade video games and classic pinball. The food is good and the atmosphere is fun. A must visit in Jax.

I guess you can say this is where many old arcade games go to finish out their days. It's fun to…read moreplay the older outdated games...it brings back a lot of memories. Arcade games have changed so much over the years, so it's nice to be able to have access to them. All games take quarters and they do have a change machine. You can literally spend a few hours in here...just like the good ol' days for some of us. Moreover, there is a store where you can find a lot of older games for older consoles like the Wii, PS2, and Xbox360 to name a few. They have quite a few specials on older games as well. The store offers many other things as well other than playing or purchasing older games. They have gaming-type gifts and they do trades too. It's definitely worth a stop if you are a gamer, looking for a retro item and/or looking for a hard-to-find game or item for yourself or as a gift...or just want a trip down memory lane. On that note, I'm glad places like this exist to give new life to all of these games, etc. It's pretty cool!

My man wanted to check out this place mainly because he heard about the arcade and I rode along…read morewith him. The front housed everything video game-related from cables and consoles, to action figures, and of course, all the video games. But walk to the back right where the lights are dimmed and it becomes more noisy, boom...arcade. Lotsa pinball machines, old-school arcade machines, skeeball, air hockey, etc. We just wanted to check the place out and didn't play but this is a great place to settle a score hahaha. Also, it didn't appear that Saturday afternoon is a busy time as no one was in there playing. As we were leaving though, a father and son went back and I heard the token machine dispensing coins. The staff were super nice and know their stuff. Definitely wanna play in that arcade in the future.

My daughter had her sweet 16th birthday party there on April 11, 2026 at 10 am. I selected the…read morepancake party for 15 and purchased additional dishes including sausage, bacon, eggs, hashbrowns, and seasonal fruit. We arrived 10 minutes prior as directed. I had previously spoken to the party planners a few days prior and food was to be ready at 10. When we arrived, it was only set up for 10. When asked, I was told they ran out of placemats and such to set up even though other parties were set up. Around 10:20 the server, who we had only seen 2 times at that point, asked if the manager that had let us in had asked when we wanted the food. I responded no and that it had been arranged that it would be 10. Needless to say, it wasnt ready. They brought the food out at 10:35 and set it up. It was cold and not very good. The pancakes were clearly frozen pancakes and the sausages were hard. Also, the fruit platter was slices of watermelon, not even enough for the 15 I paid for. In the meantime, the unlimited drinks that the kids were supposed to get were absolutely limited. The server sporadically came out to serve. At 11:00 am, the server vanished. She really never refilled anything. I sent the kids to use their cards to play. I didnt see the server again until 11:40. Again, we were the only party there. I then told her I needed to pay for the balance. She asked how it was and I told her the food was cold and such. She said they tried to keep it warm. Really offered no solution or anything. She brought me the bill with almost a $100 gratuity added on. I had already stated earlier in the week to the party planners I would pay cash. I paid the gratuity in cash and asked for the manager. I spoke to the manager who gave me 2 coupons she said she happened to find...For a party that cost over $600, that did not seem to be reasonable. I still have one of the coupons which I offered to give tgem back. She said the party planners would follow up. They did not and when I called to follow up, I was told they would research it. They never called back. When I followed up again, I was told "You got 2 coupons, what else do you want?". That is exactly how they responded. Frankly, per the contract I signed, I did not get the services as described. 2 coupons to force you to spend more money...well that does not seem to equal what was paid versus the services received. I would not recommend them for a party ever again.
