    This is a place for everyone! You can take your whole family there and be sure that they would…read moreenjoy at least one (if not more) of their activities. If you are planning on playing in the arcade area, go ahead to the customer-service area and purchase a game card, you could also get it easy from the kiosk, as you will need this card to swipe and play. We love their claw-machine (which we found it to be so much easier to win than the one in Asia, rip), if you stay there long enough on a good day, you will find some people with a big bag full of stuffed animals they won. So your chance is pretty high on winning those for your loved ones (including yourself!) When you have won enough stuffed animals, take a break and come to the other section where there are plenty of arcade games, there are ones for the sport-lover, anime-lover and those who loves to dance. There are also bowling alley, and karaoke party room which we enjoy going once in a while. Food and drinks are not allowed in there as you will be checked by the security when entered. Though, there is a little food bar that offer quick bites as well as pizza, ice cream and alcohols. Before you leave, go check out the photo booth, I recommend the Japanese ones, since you can decorate it how you like before printing it. Always have so much fun coming here, will be back again soon.

    We came on a weeknight so knew it would be staffed accordingly but I saw 1 staff member the entire…read moretime here. We got the 60 mins of game play. Options were very limited and some of the ones available were out of order. Many games seemed to be out of order. It is clean. That's a plus. Never saw any food.

    This is an amusement park, small ,but takes you back to simple times. The park is mainly geared…read moretoward families with smaller children. Free parking and admission. They do have a few adult rides train, gokarts, bumper cars ferris wheeel, and giant slide. Smaller style arcade, clean bathrooms, gift shop, little museum , golf course and food. Reasonable ticket pricing for rides. I remember coming here both as a young child , and adult. I stopped in, honestly after the Beamus 6k, over at Long State Park. The main reason was to just check out park, neat mini golf and get pizza. Yes, I get they were not even quite open an hour when I arrived a little after noon. My reasoning for the 4 star review, no menu or anything listed on pricing for what was sold, or in my case if it was cheese or pepperoni. The young employee, when asked regarding Do you sell pizza, yes, cheese, pepperoni and I asked how much he said $5. A menu of items offered with pricing, would have been helpful.

    Perfect if you have any small children, ideally ages six or under. This wouldn't be a good spot if…read moreyou were going with teens or just adults. I had never been here before in in spite of frequenting the Chautauqua area, my whole life. But, I finally had an occasion because my tiny niece was the perfect age for this place. There were a ton of rides that were perfect for her as a three year-old. Also, they had rides that were good for ages 4 to 6 as well. She really enjoyed the little roller coaster. Watch out that it is actually a little rough for the adults to ride on because it does jerk a little. Also, there were some really cute little boat rides, including one that took took the children around in a circle. There was very little that she was too small to ride on, so it was completely fantastic. Also, we were able to get her a wristband that gave her all inclusive access to rides. For a few rides that do require adult accompaniment for littles, the adult gets to ride free. There's a food spot towards the bottom of the hill and I highly recommend it. I was able to get platters of fries and corn, dogs and pizza, for not too much money. This is a clutch when it came to reducing the chance of overstimulated little kid meltdowns. Also, it was very sunny, and there was very little shade, so bring the sunscreen. Also, they have free boat parking. So, boating over and walking in is a great option if you happen to have or be renting a boat.

    Whether it's for a private screening of your favorite movies, hosting a birthday party, or even a…read more DEATH METAL SHOW, the Erie Movie House can't be beat. Craig and Nicole are very accommodating to any needs you may have, and they have a full snack bar as well as offer free popcorn (and they have every flavor shaker you could think of, and many I'm sure you've never seen). The smaller 30-person theatre area is perfect for a more intimate event like the debut of a locally made movie, or an acoustic performance. The seats are VERY comfortable and I'm almost ashamed to admit having to fight to stay awake more than once due to overcomfort hahaha. They also offer VR Gameplay on their top-of-the-line gaming laptop, and bolster an impressive inventory of games. Other than the VR and the theatre area, Erie Movie House also has an air hockey table, loads of arcade cabinets, many of which have TONS of game choices, an area where they have a super comfy couch, and an NES, SNES, SEGA, ATARI, and more; all with cartridge ROMs of every existing title. They made wall art with the cable management going from the consoles to the very large flat display tv, and even have a working (free) payphone! Classic malt-shop style jukebox for some tunes, fun gimmicky Addams Family electric grip thing which makes your hands all tingly... but my favorite thing is PINBALL. Not only do they have several classic pinball machines, they have a DIGITAL pinball machine that has literally almost EVERY pinball machine ever made on its hard drive. And you might be thinking that it wouldn't match up to the real thing, but it is SLICK. They pretty much have to pry me off of it every time I'm there. We hosted my daughters 13th birthday party there, and it was very reasonably priced, and Craig and Nicole actually even opened an hour earlier for us (due to my mixup: I scheduled 6pm and the invites said 5). Would definitely host another party there, the kids had a blast and I did too! I have also hosted metal concerts with them, and they're wonderful with promotion, and always make sure that each band is paid for their performances. Top notch people own and operate this place. And if your event is 21+ there is even a liquor store next door! Highly Reccomend, obviously.
