They have air hockey and a decent selection of video games and pinball. I suggest bringing cash to exchange for quarters on the change machines that are there. There is an ATM machine that takes a physical credit/debit card to withdraw cash to exchange for quarters but I'm guessing they'll charge a fee. Check their open hours online. In general, all ages are welcome until 8pm. Beer, cider, non-alcoholic drinks are available and a few other goodies. Including 2 groovy bathrooms on site that are of course covered with stickers. Such a super cool and fun place! I think you'll get a kick out of it, too.

First time my boyfriend and I went here the bartender was super amazing, I'm sad I didn't catch…read moretheir name. The bartender told us about all the events they host there and how it wasn't super busy that night ( there was maybe 5 other people there in total .) We played a couple rounds of pinball and their mini bowling machine, which was tons of fun!!! UNTIL... Since we had such a great time, the first time we went, we decided to go randomly one night, not thinking about which event night it was.( completely our fault for not checking.) It turned out to be a karaoke night. The bar was WAY less diverse than it was the first time we went. The mic was extremely loud for how small the building is, which could be fun if you pregame or get your drinks down fast lol. A different bartender served us this time. I couldn't tell if she was intoxicated or just super all over the place. We ordered the same drinks we got last time, but they were made completely different and did not taste good. Overall, probably won't try this place again at least for a while. But I would recommend trying it at least once if you're pretty local & like Barcades. Drinks are decently priced. Did not try food. Pinball machines were about 25¢ each (amazing)

People sitting in their cars, homeless people talking to themselves and pacing INSIDE the bar. I understand that they can't turn away people, but there's something about the place that's been attracting people I don't feel safe drinking around. I don't know if there's a solution, but I probably won't be back at night or for karaoke.

Not amazing but not terrible. Went for lunch. Good portions. Clean restaurant and fast friendly…read moreservice. I ordered these cod fish and chips. It had too much breading in it for my liking. It came with 3 pieces. The fries were perfect. There were a lot of staff working at the lunch hour. Most of them were young. They were pretty loud when they went to the back and the whole restaurant could hear them. Not good work ethic. But our food was fine and prices are very decent. Is it worth the drive?...yes.

It's pretty much a standard bowling alley (sorry for anyone that this is like their all-time favorite place or something). They have nighttime bowling and turn on the disco lights, that's always fun. They have a cafe, an arcade, and seem to be attached to a casino (I did not get down that far). Good prices on drinks. The only real drawback was the very stinky bathrooms. They really need to turn up the air freshener in there.

We loved the arcade games and the fact that they used real money and they weren't expensive to play. It it easy to observe the games going on which is very entertaining. It took a bit for some of his friends to get the hang of driving but the staff member helped out. The kids were talking about it nonstop. They enjoyed the snacks sold there and teasing each other as they competed. I wish I would have thought to bring medals for the winning team! Lol! The joy it brought everyone made it worth every penny. They also do a wonderful job preparing for the game.

If there is such thing as a perfect hangout venue for a group of friends, Whirlyball comes very…read moreclose to fit that description. It has beer, pizza, bumper car, basketball, lacrosse, and arcade games all wrapped up in a single establishment that offers immense fun for reasonable per-person cost. It is always a blast to have a game of whirlyball with your friends, drink beer in between the games, and get back into your bumper car and play the lacrosse/basketball. It is strangely addicting and just fun. And the beer prices are reasonable as well. Booking the court requires a phone call but staff are very friendly and they really work with you to get the right amount of court and time for your group and event. On the day of the event, you get assigned a referee who runs all the games and they are engaging, funny, and just great.

I visited here upon a birthday invitation for my son's friend, so I can only comment on my time…read morehere as a guest. His friend's family reserved a private room for the birthday event, and I was thankfully able to locate it with the assistance of an employee. The service seemed decent. Orders were taken at a timely manner with food quickly being brought out and serving plates/trays cleaned up promptly once everyone was done grabbing food from the table. I really liked the cleanliness and décor of the place. Has a calming ambience with all the ocean vibes. I was not expecting duckpin bowling (I didn't do any research before coming here) but it seems ideal for a casual time. No one was really taking the bowling seriously since it was more of an event to get together, eat, and chat, so the duckpin bowling is good for all the kids to just bowl for fun and all the adults to chatter in between. I had some pizza, it was good enough (not cheesy enough for my preference but the taste was adequate). A fun time overall. I'm not inquiring about the price though lol looks a bit too fancy for me.

The decor and overall vibes definitely felt like ocean or oceanside. I could spend all day just observing the insides. They have a huge space for bowling, arcade, food and even party rooms to rent out if you'd like! I know they also have a restaurant. We definitely want to come back to try out bowling and get some prizes at the arcade. The arcade did have some machines that were broken but they did have clear signs indicating that. The claw machines are also on the weaker side. The staff here are friendly and professional. The bathroom here is really fancy and they have a sign with all their monthly deals.

The movie tickets were actually pretty inexpensive by today's standards of around 7 per person. They had an excellent in-house brand Tracyton IPA draft available in pitchers.

I don't know if it's clear or not on the website on which seats don't recline and are instead folding chairs. Service was good and the food was excellent. Military discount available.

There can be a few more toddler friendly equipment added to play on like a small slide can be a nice add on.
