Sad to report this place wasn't somewhere I plan to return…read more Half the pinballs machines didn't work. Three of the machines got the ball stuck and wouldn't allow me to keep playing. With each game costing one to two dollars I felt a little ripped off I couldn't even finish my game of three balls. The pool table me and my friend played on was quite frankly disgusting. Tons of stains on the table and felt peeling. The balls all chipped and scratched. Also there was some issue with something being stuck when the game was first setup with my friend putting it together but I wasn't paying attention. He had to flag down a worker to help resolve the issue. I get it, things are pricey these days, so a newer business has to find a deal when they can, but at least find a way to improve an already overly used item. I don't expect brand new pool tables, but at least tables that look like the business cares Not to mention the ground and walls were just dirty and gross. Seemed like nobody is really cleaning the place. All the tables tops seemed sticky (if you know you know). The velvet lounge just kinda seemed like a random thrown together area, but maybe on a slow Monday it didn't feel right with lack of people. The workers were great and gave great service, just sadly all the half run down amenities that is supposed to make this place great, makes it pretty lackluster. I guess come if you want the axe throwing?

The best thing to happen to Sacramento since The Beam…read more I am so forever obsessed with this place. Perfect for geeks, nerds, dorks, memers, hot girls with secrets, gnomes, wimpy kids with diaries, drunk aunts and queen bees. No matter who or what you are, you'll probably find a way to have a great time at Coin-Op. I literally tell everyone to come here. Because everyone should go here. Except not all at once on the nights I wanna go because I don't want it to be too crowded :)

What better way to celebrate a birthday than going to a rage room?…read more I've always wanted to go to one of these, and I love the fact that Sac has a couple of these. I found this place thanks to Offbeat Coffee a couple shops down the plaza. We decided to book a room for a friend's birthday, and I initially thought "no way this is worth the money". Um... long story short, you quickly find out how much pent up anger/energy you have when you get to swinging. A couple of downsides-- while there were three of us, only two of us took our rage out. There aren't that many items, so we found that the 20 minute time limit was more than enough. We (as in the two of us) pretty much destroyed everything to pieces in 10 minutes. If you decide that you want to go with a bigger group, definitely upgrade and purchase more items to smash. Also, we came at peak 100 degree weather and this place is not air conditioned. By the end of this, we were covered in sweat, especially because the safety hats and gloves are required in the rage rooms as well. So I'd make note of that before your visit. Other than that, staff was very friendly and welcoming!

I am surprised after all these years she still has this job. You can file a complaint against her here if you run into into the same issues, as what I can tell, all 1 star and 2 stars are all about this lady having attitude with the visitors. https://www.parks.ca.gov/Commend-or-Complain

Beautiful Time Celebrating Ancient Cultural Diversity in Sacramento!…read morehttps://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/lantern-street-festival-sacramento?select=wSSUqMiUI0sCyIE8XEcSpw&userid=3mNz5nQFTIBQm0oU5mBR0w SITREP Fremont Park in Downtown Sacramento became the site of the lovely Lantern Festival. https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/lantern-street-festival-sacramento?select=Ay_BfKSvzAy8Nd9X9w4rzw&userid=3mNz5nQFTIBQm0oU5mBR0w THE SETUP Sacramento has a large Chinese community - and has had one nearly since the founding of this city, and definitely since the founding of The Great State of California. The Spring Lantern Festival ("Lantern Festival") is a Chinese festival celebrated historically on the fifteenth day of the first month in the lunisolar Chinese calendar. It marks the final day of the traditional Chinese New Year celebrations. Fremont Park was the site for this year's festival and became a hub of activity with Decorated Lanterns, a music concert, a food truck convo, and so much more fun! https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/lantern-street-festival-sacramento?select=ud0mxk_sXgV9GGoSp91EdQ&userid=3mNz5nQFTIBQm0oU5mBR0w LIGHT TOYS! A festival such as this DOES inspire some marked "branch-offs" when it comes to pleasing the sensibilities of children: many lighted toys make their way into the festivals. Many kids brought their light-sabers contributing to the visual array of lights. There are also some creations that I swear are Harry Potter-inspired, such as the "Lighted-Wands" that come with their own lighted globe on the end of the wand. https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/lantern-street-festival-sacramento?select=a2aUOqyuUd10pTam9dVN9w&userid=3mNz5nQFTIBQm0oU5mBR0w ANCIENT HISTORY As early as the Western Han Dynasty (206 BC), the Lantern Festival has been imbued with great significance for children, who go out at night, carrying their paper lanterns, and solving riddles that adults have placed on the lanterns. In those ancient times, lanterns were plain, and often only the nobility could afford the making of large ornate lanterns. These days, lanterns feature many different embellishments with intricate designs, including being in the shape of animals or symbols. THE WEST Because of our significant Chinese communities all over the United States, including here in California, the Lantern Festival is a significant Cultural Celebration. It is noted in many other Western countries as well, especially in cities with a large Chinese community: for example, in London, the Magical Lantern Festival (the largest Lantern Festival outside of China) is held annually. THE LOWDOWN A beautiful celebration giving we Sacramentans to enjoy some more great cultural diversity with our neighbors.

I promise this isn't a snooty film bro place. All movie lovers are welcome. Folks are friendly and I should stop being so shy and make more friends since I'm here so often! I would highly recommend a monthly membership as it comes with these perks once per month: ~2 tickets! ~Access to 1 monthly members only screening. Members get to vote on the movie pick each month based on an imaginative theme ~Fees waived if buying through SeeTickets ~Up to 15!!!! discounted tickets, 1 per showing Dreamland is considering expanding because it's become so popular! There are only 30ish seats inside, but that's part of what I like so much about it. The intimate underground feel. However, I would and will support them no matter where they go! If you sign up for emails you can contribute to surveys about its future, and be notified of the monthly schedule, including special events. During Pride their John Waters showings were so popular they had to move them to The Crest Theatre! Dreamland has also hosted local filmmakers for Q& As and film festivals! They often have movies I can't find anywhere else or have never heard of. Sometimes they show short films too. Coming up in October is a night of spooky horror shorts! Lots of incredibly cool stuff happening in my neighborhood and I'm so proud to support it! See you in October for something spooky? One last tip: check the schedule asap at the beginning of the month and buy tickets asap because they sell out fast!
