I've been here a few times since they opened, attended last years Stoplight party and went to the one held a few days ago. Before we were allowed in we were told to sign the waiver.

I've been here a few times since they opened, attended last years Stoplight party and went to the one held a few days ago. Before we were allowed in we were told to sign the waiver. I scanned a QR code that required signing up with an email and your credit card information. I figured I had to sign in to all that to attend the event, now I'm seeing a charge on my card for a "Digi Variety" service. I'm not sure what this is about but it's dishonest and dangerous for Cidercade to make us sign up to these random scam sites under the guise of 'signing a waiver' for an event. Very disappointing as this place offers great drinks and games, however now I'll need to pay attention for any underhanded tactics like this for future events. Show less

This was an awesome experience whether you're into retro games, or modern games. My husband loved the fighting games when I showed him the Japan room. They also have Japanese arcade setups. They have shuffle board and pool tables. They have a table top Atari Pong which I loved! They had a great assortment of ciders. The staff helped us find an assortment of samples to try based on our preferences. They were also really knowledgeable and friendly about the games they have and games he would like to add. Once you pay the entry fee, the games are free play. We will definitely be back with our kiddo! There were party rooms available. I imagine this would be a fun venue for a kid's party or for an adult party! Show less

Never thought we would spend 7 hours straight in a gaming arcade but we ended up doing it having so much fun as friends and family.

Never thought we would spend 7 hours straight in a gaming arcade but we ended up doing it having so much fun as friends and family. At 12$ they offer unlimited time at the arcade where one can play as many games as they want any number of times. Kids and adults will have so much fun as there are various kinds of games (not just the computer ones). People who like beer 🍻 should not miss their freshly brewed ciders which is so refreshing. This facility is definitely larger than the Dallas or Fortworth ones. Show less

Bringing my boomer parents to Cidercade was like dragging two Cold War museum exhibits into a neon arcade dimension. They walked in, saw the retro Asteroids and Space Invaders games lighting up the room, and their eyes went full “the Soviets are definitely launching something” 80s childhood mode. Then they spotted Guitar Hero and suddenly it was less nostalgia and more “we have emerged from the ice like Captain America and everything looks wrong but intriguing.” They tried to pay for things with cash, because of course they did, and the staff handled it like seasoned temporal diplomats. Patient, friendly, zero judgment, guiding them through the shocking revelation that the future runs on buying a wristband at the door and just hitting play on the machine. Even with the generational time warp, everyone had a blast. Games were fun, cider was solid, staff saved us from at least three potential “why doesn’t this machine take quarters” incidents. Watching my parents wide eyed and actually enjoying themselves was wholesome. Cidercade delivered pure entertainment for everyone involved. Also, I cannot stress this enough: the flat fee for the wristband for unlimited play is the single greatest advancement in arcade civilization since they invented the joystick. No stupid preloaded cards bleeding you dry, no “infinite” cards that somehow still run out of magic, no fishing for tokens like it’s 1997. Just pay once at the door and play. Incredible. Show less

If you’re a nerd for games, this is the place for you. I personally enjoyed the basketball,ping pong, and air hockey side of the arcade.

Some of the videogames said two players but actually would only work with one. I deducted another star because we tried the butterbeer cider and it had no flavor. It just tasted like plain apple sider. It was also $7 for a small cup. It was fun for an hour but definitely wouldn’t go back. Show less

$12 all you can play with ample buffet options. And options you want, not the old obscure games that we used to walk by clutching our quarters. I think one of the things I enjoyed was playing a few games I normally would not since it didn't cost me. Pinball. Beer options were ample. Didn't try any food; but, I saw folks walking away from empty plates, rubbing their bellies. The staff was super friendly and the fellow players were as well. Didn't see or hear any offensive behavior. Try them out. I really was impressed with this gem that seems overlooked by many who go to busters to spend a lot more and get less. Show less

This place is so much fun me and my daughter love coming here. Shes not into the retro games like I am. She likes the area where you have to step on a certain colors and it counts down. Its fun and its a workout. She also likes skeeball and air hockey and Mario kart. There's more to offer plenty other racing games, fighting, shooters , music. The food in my opinion is so good. I love the burgers here. Today the bacon in my burger was a little undercooked for my liking. I like it crispy but its the first time that has happened. My daughter gets the chicken and it has good flavor to it. The fries are waffle and curly both our favorites. A little soft serve ice cream hits the spot after. Cons- Once it starts getting packed its a little hard to get around and the games my daughter wanted to play she had to wait. Show less

This place is just flat out awesome!!! I've never seen a larger assortment of retro game cabinets, pin ball machines, and arcade style games in one place to play unlimitedly in my entire life for such a resonable price. I grew up with mall arcades that emptied your pockets at every turn ( Red Baron I frequented often ). Those places pale in comparison to this. Modern nickel arcades I've been to where the options are limited and half the cabinets are out of service are pitiful in comparison to Cidercade. This place is massive with tons of room to roam and its ALL up and running. From retro video games to pinball, basketball, skeeball, pool, ping pong, shuffleboard, air hockey, and MORE! Oh and on top of that they have delicious craft ciders so you can get a little buzz on while you play! If you're the non alcoholic type that's ok too because they have an awesome assortment of craft sodas that are also delicious. Speaking of delicious they have one of the best smash burgers I've personally had ANYWHERE. They have other great food options as well that are nothing short of fantastic. AT AN ARCADE!!! So in conclusion for a date night, place to take the kids for some fun, a family gathering, group event, or maybe you just want a solo good time, if you can't find some fun here I don't know what you're looking for because they've got a little something for everyone in my opinion.
