    Climbing walls
    Peter K.

    This is so different from a typical fun place for kids. It's mostly climbing walls that are themed in such a cool way, has a zip line, elevated obstacles, slides that lead into an air cushion and a pretty cool arcade. Our kids had a blast, even our teenager. The staff was super friendly and it wasn't particularly crowded when we went so we could try most everything. If your kids are adventurous, they will love this place.

    Really fun indoor climbing and ziplining. Also has games and slides. Food also available.

    This place is great for wearing out kids (and adults lol). Lots of climbing walls and ziplining and slides. 2 hours is just enough time in my opinion. My kids think they could've stayed here longer, but honestly, their muscles were tired. Lots of places for parents to sit while their kids have fun. They have massage chairs and a café area for you to enjoy snacks as well as additional seating throughout the indoor park. Lots of staff members walking around answering questions about courses and checking to make sure harnesses are on correctly. Wait times were extremely reasonable. It was busy, but everybody was able to get on what they wanted pretty quickly. 10/10 for my kids. They want to come back.

    Fantastic spot for kids to have fun and develop a tolerance for heights and adventure! We went for a birthday party and at first our kids did not want to climb higher than a few inches (even though they climb trees all the time). By the end of the day, one was able to touch the top and another got halfway! Their smiles and excitement after going so far made this event memorable for the whole family. The area is well maintained and very clean. The staff were friendly and always available to help. I enjoyed that the party rooms did not have a roof directly overhead, which kept the area cool even with so many people packed in a room. The pizza is amazing and there were some unique toppings like tikka masala. Overall, this is a solid event space for kids and now both of ours want their birthdays here!

    One of the best employees on the team! Raleigh and Maddy rock!

    This new rock climbing gym is AMAZING! We opted to come later in the day to avoid the rush and I'm so glad we did. The kids had a blast and were able to play for two hours (you can also buy an all day pass for a bit more or even a 3 month or yearly membership). Prices are a bit steep but the kids enjoyed every second and didn't want to leave. There's plenty of rock walls to scale, each with its own unique features, decor, and difficulty levels - even for the youngest of climbers. They also have a zip line and ropes course with staff that can step in to help in case you get a bit stuck. My kids acclimated quickly and we're running off the zip line platform after playing it safe the first few tries. They also have two large slides that kids use a blanket and head down face first (a bit scary at first, not gonna lie) and land on a giant pillow. Luckily whoever engineered this made the slope the right angles because kids don't get launched into outer space and it's not as scary as it looks haha. There's also a mesh hammock type of caterpillar that kids can take off their shoes and explore right above the main checkin desk. If that's not enough the have an arcade and a restaurant on site with more than your average options. This place is awesome but wish there was a more affordable monthly option to purchase. My kids already want to have their birthdays here this year. Also- we had some really great interactions with the team members during our visit so shout out to Raleigh and Maddy. You guys rock!

The arcade games are pretty expensive and they blew through the $15 in less than 15 mins. The mini golf course was short and compacted on the main floor so the courses were not as fancy or intricate as some larger outdoor mini golf courses. The boys finished all 18 holes in less than 30 mins all by themselves. The laser tag was fun too. The vests were pretty big and heavy and it looked so big our littlest guy but he held his own. It seemed crowded when the summer camp group of kids were there, but when they all left, it wasn't crowded at all. Coming from LA, where anything fun is crowded, it was nice to not have to wait in long lines. We wanted to try the laser maze, but it wasn't working. The workers were all teenagers, and the manager guy looked maybe early 20's but they were all helpful. It was fun to spend a couple hours in the hot afternoon being indoors.

But they loved it, especially the gigantic green monster that would occasionally pop up and tower over the course. There are many different packages you can purchase. I ended up going with the combo golf and arcade package. It was a fairly good deal and I knew there was no way I would be getting out of this place without my kids playing a few rounds of Air Hockey and Skee-ball. I also enjoy a good arcade game myself. Some of the games, not all of them, dispense digital tickets. We managed to collect enough to get some fun toys including a spider that would crawl down a wall and an ice cream cone where you can launch the ice cream right off. My son thought this was the best invention ever! Overall, our time here was spectacular. We can't wait to visit again!

As we walked around, I saw several arcade games that instantly brought back memories from the early 1980s -- the same kinds of games I grew up playing. The highlight for me was the new Star Trek pinball machine. Even though it's not one of the older classics, it quickly became my favorite. Watching the Enterprise light up and move up and down was just awesome, and sharing that moment with my kids made it even better. I also want to mention how impressed I was with the bathroom. It was very clean and surprisingly private -- the stalls have walls that go all the way from the ceiling down to the floor with no gaps, which you rarely see in public restrooms. It made the whole visit feel even more comfortable. Spinners is a great mix of nostalgia, modern arcade fun, and thoughtful details. We had a fantastic family day.

We were greeted as soon as we entered and the staff was friendly and personable. Very welcoming. We visited on a Saturday night and it was not too crowded, leaving us with plenty of options to roam around and play any games. My old childhood favorites brought back memories...Galaga and the finger blistering Track & Field. They are located in the back area next to the movies. There is plenty of parking available. They currently sell soft drinks and I was informed they will soon have their liquor license to sell beer.

    So... this was an interesting experience in customer service!…read more I used the FANZO sports bar finder website (fanzo.com) to determine that a pay-per-view boxing event was "confirmed" (per the website) to be showing at Dave & Buster's Fairfax this past Saturday afternoon. I called the location ahead of time that Saturday and spoke to a D&B employee, who put me on hold to check with her manager. She returned a short time later and confirmed that the bar would be showing the boxing event. I drove 20+ minutes to the location and, after waiting at the bar for a while, was told that no, Dave & Buster's would not be showing the event--even though it had been listed as "confirmed" on the sports bar finder website and despite management apparently confirming it over the phone less than an hour earlier. Later that night, I emailed Dave & Buster's Guest Relations (corporate) to explain what had happened and express my frustration with the experience. To my surprise, they responded promptly the next day (on a Sunday!), apologized, and credited me with Dave & Buster's gaming chips as a gesture of goodwill. (I did have to pay a little out of pocket to purchase the Power Card needed for Guest Relations to transfer the gaming chips, but I nonetheless very much appreciated the goodwill gesture.) So I'd definitely rate the initial experience at the location a 1, but I'd rate D&B Guest Relations' prompt response and gesture of goodwill a 4 or 5. So they get a 3 overall from me (higher than their current Yelp average). I'll say that my experiences at this venue prior to this past weekend have generally been good. I just don't think I'll feel comfortable relying on watching any pay-per-view sporting events at this location anytime soon, and - given the experience I had here - would warn others to independently verify any pay-per-view event before making the trip, even if Dave and Buster's staff confirms it over the phone.

That being said, there's putt putt golf, and arcade, snack shack, gift shop, and a VR (virtual reality) room. There's a bundle deal that you can buy that gives you a round of putt putt golf (18 holes), the arcade, and VR room. The golfing is fun, it's horror themed and there's music playing which makes for a good ambience. The arcade, which is pretty much scattered throughout the entire establishment, is really fun. There's all kinds of games for all kinds of age groups and some of the games give you tickets which can be used to get gifts from the gift shop. The snack shack has the kinds of food you would expect them to have like pizza, chicken tenders, french fries, and a bunch of candies and drinks. The virtual reality room is a lot of fun, i've tried the zombie one and the paranormal house game. Both of them were a lot of fun, but they have a lot of other options to choose from that aren't horror related. They also have a sensory night for kids or adults who struggle with bright lights and louder noises. I totally recommend 10/10. PS: I had the day's high score for their basketball game.

The mini golf course has a fun, spooky theme that keeps the energy up the whole time, and the black light setup makes it feel like more of an experience than just a standard putt-putt round. The staff was friendly and made sure everyone was having a good time without being intrusive. The environment is well kept and the layout flows nicely so you're not constantly waiting around. Reasonably priced for what you get, and a solid option if you're looking for something different to do with the kids in the area.

Not a couple random machines tucked in a corner, but enough games to keep you busy way longer than you planned. The cocktails? Oh they're gimmicky. Fully. And that's the fun of it. They're colorful, dramatic, a little extra, and totally fit the vibe. If you want a quiet, serious cocktail moment, this isn't that. If you want something playful in your hand while you dominate skee ball, you're in the right spot. Now the food -- this surprised me. The cheesesteak egg rolls are a must. Crispy, cheesy, packed with flavor. Absolutely order them. The buffalo chicken sliders were also a win. Messy in the best way, saucy, juicy, and perfect for grazing between games. What really made it though was the staff. They genuinely look like they're having a good time working there. Not fake smiles. Real energy. That kind of vibe changes everything and makes you want to hang out longer. Game On knows exactly what it is and leans all the way in. Fun first, good food, playful drinks, great energy. We'll be back.

I do not plan to return and would not recommend this location unless major improvements are made. Before booking, I called to ask about compensation for shoe rentals since everyone in my party owns their own bowling shoes and equipment. I was told food or beverage compensation would be provided. However, when we arrived, the front desk staff seemed confused, and after a long delay, we were given arcade credit instead, which was not what was promised. Once we began bowling, the lane condition was unacceptable. Staff confirmed the lane had not been oiled in over two days and it was visibly dirty. It took over 30 minutes to clean my bowling ball and another 30 minutes to clean my girlfriend's. The lack of oil caused the ball to behave unpredictably, making proper play nearly impossible and risking damage to our equipment. The group bowling next to us repeatedly ignored basic bowling etiquette--throwing multiple balls at once and launching them excessively hard. At one point, a ball bounced into our lane, which was unsafe. One female staff member did her best to address the issue and deserves credit, but the behavior resumed shortly after. This situation highlighted a need for better staff training and consistent rule enforcement. There were also frequent scoring issues, as the pinsetter incorrectly registered frames and required constant manual corrections. The food was equally disappointing--the pretzel sticks tasted stale, as if reheated and left sitting. For nearly $100 for two hours of bowling, I expected a much better experience. The high prices, poor lane conditions, mediocre customer service, and lack of oversight made this an extremely frustrating visit. This location feels more like "boutique bowling" and is not suited for serious or competitive bowlers.

The arena is the right level of dark with fog machines running too. There are several platforms with various access ramps. My favorite details is that a few platforms have a grate where players can shoot down at others below (watch out, they can shoot up at you too!). There are always rapid fire and mega power Gems for upgrades and a third that rotates by game (invisibility, invulnerability, dark thief), so definitely sign up for 3 games if you can to experience the full rotation. The prices are reasonable, especially in today's economy. There is a water cooler to refresh yourself between games, because you will work up a sweat between the crouching and quick moving around while wearing a phaser pack.
