Cidercade Arlington

I got the 3 chicken tender basket with lemon pepper rub, and ranch and barbecue sauce. It was amazing and a good amount of fries. It took less than 7 min! There's so many games to play and it's a great vibe. Great place for groups and families

I saw an ad for a Halloween event there, so I tried to call and ask a few questions. A robot answered and informed me no humans there take calls, so I was expected to text message them with any questions. Lmao, what? In addition to being cheap, terrible, lazy service, this is also creepy as hell. I don't wanna text with a rando to ask questions about a business establishment that's so cheap and lazy, it's in their business model to not answer their phones. Another strike against this place - they don't accept cash. If you're one of those people who likes to pay cash as you go rather than starting a tab because you tend to forget your card or you're not comfortable letting a third party hold onto your card - sucks to be you! Third strike - they don't even have a full bar. Fourth strike - "Family friendly" by day = infested with annoying children. Since they're only open until midnight, and they don't kick the damn kids out until 9, that gives adult patrons a grand total of three hours, and we can't even get real alcohol. This place is a joke. It's like they couldn't decide whether they wanted to be Chuck E Cheese or Dave and Busters, so they took the absolute worst of both, and added a few additional annoyances for funsies. No thanks.

For JUST $12 per person, you get to spend the entire day playing all sorts of arcade games. They have old school video games, to an assortment of pinball machines. They have two bars as well. They do not offer food, but you are allowed to order from outside and bring in, they just ask you clean after yourselves. We didn't get the chance to spend the time we wanted as we had other engagements, but it's definitely a great idea to take the whole family, or group of friends.

We've checked out almost every AYC play arcade in DFW and this is one of the best out there. Plenty of space and some nice additions like shuffle board. Wish that this place serves some snacks (although you are allowed to bring in food and there are plenty of places to eat within walking distance)Good selection of games including some high end games like Killer Queen and the grand daddy, Fast and Furious. One of the most intense games that we've played. As with most Cidercades, it gets pretty crowded on weekends. Overall, a great way to spend a day.

lots of games, i wish they had food though! The staff was friendly & the games seemed to be well maintained, the venue as well.

Okay this place is freaking cool. We literally left thinking how to bring a business like this home.First off, the place is HUGE. The biggest arcade I've ever been to. They have every game you could ever want to try. You buy the wristband and all games are free play which is fantastic, a great bang for your buck. You'll spend hours just looking at all the options because there's so much to chose from.I do wish they served beer as well (they only serve cider), but they did have some great cider flavors and options. The server in the back room was fantastic and super helpful all day.Really cool spot, I wish they had one in every city. We would probably spend every weekend here if we were local.

I absolutely loved the vibe of this place! Julie at the front provided such energetic service, making me feel like a kid again walking up to Minyards to play arcade games. The venue is vast and seems to go on forever, offering a nostalgic journey through countless games. I was slightly disappointed they didn't have the game I was looking for, Burger Time. It would be fantastic if they could add it to their collection!

Unlimited game play - $12 for a one day pass or $20 for a monthly pass!! You can't beat the price but these guys also provide great quality games that are well maintained and super retro and cool. I love their included pool tables, shuffle board, and ping pong tables, too!! I cannot recommend this place enough!!!!

This was my first visit to a Cidercade. My wife and oldest had been to the one in Ft Worth, and while they had fun and rude employee when they came in had left a bad feeling in their guts. (That doesn't reflect on the Arlington one at all, just means we may avoid the Ft Worth one.) My wife came to check out the Arlington location during a Tax day special, and recommended that we come try this location out. So, we came up with our youngest for his end of school year fun outing. Staff was amazing at this location and they have a ton of space with lots of fun games. They encourage folks to support the nearby businesses and we saw a few people come in with pizza boxes from the pizza place nearby. They have a cider flight for $18 pre tax/tip, at the time I'm writing this, and that/s what my wife & I split on the drink end. They will let you taste 2-3 if you have a hard time comiting, and they are really knowledgeable on the flavors if you need some more information. So they want folks to be happy with what they get, even with having a flight. There is 40 items on tap if I remember correctly. They do give out water cups, and they have fountain drinks. Not name brand soda like Coke or Pepsi but I unfortunately can't recall the brand that they have. I'm thinking of trying that out next time we come. We will for sure keep the Arlington Cidercade as part of our rotation, be it for a friend hang out, date night or something to do with the kids. They do even have some rooms to rent if you want to reserve them for a party. One of our youngest classmates had a party up here, we just couldn't attend to be able to check out how a party ran.

no pizza at this location.no barstools at the machines at this location.that was a huge disappointment. but you still can't be at 12 bucks for all you can play.
