Pleasant environment and affordable pricing. My kids love it here. We have a banging good time so if you’re looking for some great fun at a great price this is your go-to place.

J Love

Best bang for your buck here! Hubby said, “we’re definitely coming back.”. Our 4 and 9-year-old had a blast. Some games don’t give ticket rewards, but most do.

Mia

First of all, the employees are super nice! And it’s so cheap for such a fun experience! It’s great for both kids and adults! Definitely coming back!

Cailey

Super fun. You win a lot of tickets in the different games. If a machine doesn’t give you your tickets, you just go tell them and the immediately fix it. The employees were kind and on top of it. Also, with the games being 1-8 nickles it is pretty reasonable.

Chel

The kids love it here! We’ve been coming here for years. It’s a great place to go if you do not want to spend a lot of money and have a lot of fun as well.

Shelly

If you are looking for a fun place to take your kiddos, look no further! We had the best time at Nickel Mania! My son was so happy we went there!

Rita

Good games and good prizes all for a good price. Something even better about the place is the employees! Like dang! They are so nice! This experience left me and my children super happy!

Chloe

My boys love coming here – it’s a way better value than any other arcade you could find. We also had my son’s birthday party here and everyone had a great time. The owner is very involved and responsive and you can tell that he really wanted us all to have a good time. Highly recommend!
