★ ★ ★ ★ ★ All for supporting small local businesses etc BUT half of the pin ball games were not working which left not alot to choose from. Staff tried to reset but rushed away before they acknowledged they were still not operating!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Ordered through uber eats, this is a "scoop" of chips, two hot dogs, and 6 fish bites. Really gutted at this one thinking this was going to be the classic kiwi fish n chips feed. Around $20 not including delivery etc. Quality was pretty bottom tier as well, super gutted on this considering all the good reviews. Although corn dogs were okay so a silver lining ?

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We went to a party here recently and enjoyed it so much we decided to have my sons 12th birthday here. They had an amazing time. The games are fun and the food is great for a party. We brought our own cake and I forgot a lighter so one of the people working went and grabbed one from their car. Great customer service!! Both people working were fab - I hope their ears aren't suffering too much after the "karaoke"
Definitely be back (sorry in advance for anyone who has to listen to the singing lol)

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This place absolutely rocks! Best place in town by far for entertainment.
We went to Arcadia on Saturday for my sons birthday, we made a booking through messenger which was great. I grew up with Wizards in the 80's and the all you can play nights on Saturday from 7-10 were.a blast. Playing the machines and whilst at Arcadia it was a great throwback and Arcadia makes it even better as it adds modern conveniences such as refreshments and drinks. I like fish and chips and I have searched high and low around town for a fish and chip shop that can serve decent chips. Well who would have guessed that Arcadia would have the best chips in town! Cooked to perfection, not burnt or undercooked.
Playing the pinballs reminded me of my youth, when I was 16 - I owned and operated a pinball machine round with over 10 machines during the pinball revival era when Adams Family and fish tails. I have owned many machines and some of the most sought after but the new Stern Ones with the Colour screens are super cool and offer something new to all ages. Im keen to buy the Kiss machine in the next year two. It can go next to my Theatre of Magic! The upkeep on the machines at Arcadia is awesome, and not an easy task doing so given the high price of replacement parts.
Arcadia is a very vibrant place and an asset to this City, if you have small children go earlier in the day they will have the run of this place. If you want some drinks with friends and some gameplay Arcadia is perfect later on in the evenings.
Well done team, top notch staff, food and an excellent business model. Keep up the great work!
