It was a bit slow at first but the kids all ended up having so much fun with the mini golf and arcade. No one wanted to leave!

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.

Spinners was a fun, enjoyable experience. I could see this being a great place for friends,…read morecouples, and families of all sorts. I'm always looking for ways to have fun without going to bar or going out to eat and spinners provided just that. They have two rows of pinball machines, old and new. They also have lots of arcade style games. All the games are set to free play and you pay one entrance price at the door that gets you all day access. Would recommend to anyone looking for some high quality fun!

Nearly 30 years later and it's the same high intensity fun for our kids. I even joined them for the second game it really brought me back. The service was good. The kids working the desk, laser tag and front desk were well mannered and helpful. Of all the venues we have had birthday parties for my kids. This was the least labor intensive as a parent with the highest amount of smiles from the kids and other parents. Easy 5 stars!

If you've never been to Dave & Buster's, imagine if a sports bar, a Chuck E. Cheese, and Las Vegas…read morehad a baby... then gave it a college degree. That's the vibe. First off--the drinks. Oh, the drinks. I'm pretty sure the slushies here have magical powers because one minute you're sipping away, the next you're convinced you could beat the world record on Skee-Ball. They're colorful, they're tasty, and they're the perfect balance of "refreshing" and "might accidentally text your ex." The food? Shockingly good. Like, actual restaurant good. We're talking burgers that don't taste like they came out of a microwave, wings that actually have flavor, and appetizers that somehow disappear off the plate faster than you can say, "I'll just have one fry." And here's the best part--you can carry your drink around while you play the games. That's right, folks, you can shoot aliens, race cars, and sink basketball shots without ever having to abandon your beverage. It's basically the American Dream in action. The games themselves range from nostalgic classics to high-tech wonders that make you feel like you're living inside an arcade machine. You might walk in saying, "I'll just play a couple games," but next thing you know, you're deeply invested in winning a stuffed banana wearing sunglasses. All in all, Dave & Buster's is that rare place where you can be a grown-up and a kid at the same time--only with better cocktails. Highly recommend for dates, birthdays, or just a random Tuesday when you feel like shooting zombies while sipping a frozen blue drink.

The food was really good and the customer service was really good. So that's why I'm giving them a 3/5 stars.

When you first walk into this place, you'll be greeted with the overwhelming smell of weed. I was…read morehoping it was just a fluke, but no matter where in the building I went, it's all I could smell. Went to the bar. Friend and I ordered a drink. Her wine was stale, and my espresso martini made me gag. It tasted like watered down milk. We left our drinks. My martini came out of a machine premade, so it wasn't the bar tenders fault. I decided to have some fun and put $60 on a card to play the ticket machines. That WAS fun until I accidentally dropped my card and this gigantic man with his family decided to pick it up and run off with it. They knew I saw them. They didn't care. Nice lesson for his children. Ugh. Columbia mall definitely has a rep now, but I was hoping this "family" place would feel safe. Oh well. It was a Friday night, so maybe that's why it was so bad. If I go back on a weekday, I'll update my review accordingly.

I met a friend here and we tried out the pool tables. They were a bit close together and we had to keep moving the small round drink table and stools out of the way in order to shoot. There were a lot of really young children here with a parent. They seemed to be having a great time. There were so many different types of games to play here - including bowling! The gentleman behind the counter was very patient about explaining how the process worked. We did have a good time, but our ears were ringing a bit after we left. I was surprised it wasn't very busy for a Saturday, but it was daylight and maybe it's different after dark. If you're looking for a place to play a variety of games, this is your place.

I remember there was a Dance Dance Revolution machine if I remember correctly and a Guitar Hero arcade machine.

This place is chaos in the best possible way…read more Game On in the Merriweather District is basically your inner child with adult money. The arcade selection is legit. 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.
