What parents say
"Dave & Busters will always have some sort of nostalgia from my childhood of coming on Wednesdays and getting half priced games and playing for hours. The chicken tenders here are the bees knees, the drinks were strong and the games are definitely fun. The price for credits wasn’t nearly as bad as I was anticipating, I spent about $100 in credits and played for a good 3 hours. The prizes of course are junk, luckily my dog loves stuffed animals. The dining room does get very busy, if you can snag yourself a seat at the bar they will serve food there as well."

"First time at a Dave and Busters, I drove 45 minutes for a big disappointment. The people at the front desk said games cost 6-12 credits. With how expensive credits were it made sense to buy a season pass even for a one time visit. The people at the front desk sent me to the power up station. The power up station took $75 from me and didn't give me a card. I went through my email and had to download an app. I asked the lady at the closest kiosk and she had no idea what to do and sent me back to the front desk. The lady at the front desk said I just have to wait for an email to come in order to"

"Absolutely amazing!! I haven’t been here since I was a kid. My fiancé brought me here for my birthday and we had so much fun. Food was delicious! We sat at the bar & our waitress Marissa, (Maybe Marisa)? was wonderful. So sweet & very tentative to use and all of her other guests really. Love her. We will definitely be back!!"
