What parents highlight
“Unlimited time you can be there 4-5 hours lol Bathroom is clean not dirty which is good because I am a women and don’t like to just pee anywhere.”
“Surrounded by lots of food options on the main strip.”
“They sell drinks there so if you get thirsty price for soda and water good prices.”
“There are approximately 200 arcade games on the premises, not counting 20ish pinball machines, the aforementioned air hockey game, and, upstairs, the old U.”
What parents say
Really a great blast from the past I spent SO many hours in arcades just makes me remember so many memories which is priceless. But the price for entry is $15 which is very fair for unlimited gameplay. This place is run by passion you can tell. Clean bathroom was nice too encouraging people to wash their hands.
Definitely worth it. Now a days you don’t get to see places like this all 90s games it’s rare . Definitely worth taking yourself or kids. Things to know before going $20 per person don’t think oh I’m not playing . No drinks allow by the games since machines are old anything can happen.
Me and my boyfriend love coming here! The pinball room is my favorite. Theres pretty much almost any kind of retro arcade game you can think of there. Its 15 dollars for admission and you can stay all day with that. Owner seems like a great guy, always nice when we go.
There literally aren’t many (if any) places on Earth my son and I enjoy more than the Underground Retrocade. First, the location is super convenient, right on 72 with a spacious parking lot behind the Retrocade.
