There is Lazer Zone and Pete's Party Castle on Schillinger Road but both are Chuck E Cheeses styled, there is Chuck E Cheese on Airport Blvd, and there is also Eastern Shore Lanes on Spanish Fort.

Last year, we recently lost an arcade in Bel Air Mall while the mall was undergoing an renovation and right now, a nail salon is taking over.

Really, Mobile really needs an another arcade center that looks like the one inside Eastern Shore Lanes in Spanish Fort and Dave and Buster's. It was announced that D&B is coming to Hoover (Birmingham).

Considering it's more expensive to have another arcade, how can we bring another one to Mobile?

If you have any thoughts, comment on here.

New Orleans is also getting a Dave & Buster's and it is scheduled to open in May: Dave & Buster's in New Orleans set to open in May | NOLA.com


As for Mobile, I don't believe it has a large enough market yet, but they could definitely change in a few years. We're definitely making progress with the addition of places like Costco, P.F. Chang's and Whole Foods.

There maybe a few exceptions. They do have locations in Panama and Little Rock.
I would love for Mobile to have an Andretti Karting http://andrettikarting.com .

If Bel Air mall Shoppes were to get a Dave & Busters the mall traffic would boost greatly!

Pete's Party Castle is unpopular among adults due to being a local version of Airport's Chuck E Cheese's. Pete's have a classic DDR and Mario Kart arcades. They also have some machines Dave and Buster's have. They still do paper tickets.

If they arcade in Bel Air have stayed much longer, we would have digital tickets and points cards.

I'm surprised no one has jumped on the "barcade" idea here. I believe Birmingham has one.

That wouldn't be a bad idea.

Would be better if Dave And Buster take over the old Best Buy in Springdale.

Sure. I would hope it would have adult beverages and a food that isn't microwaved though.
