What Players Say

Reviewers consistently describe Dave & Buster’s Pelham Manor as a large, energetic venue well-suited to families, birthday parties, and casual date nights. The game selection, clean restrooms, and convenient free parking are recurring positives. Visitors also call out standout servers and managers — with names like Kiara, Chris, Kareen, and Amber earning specific shoutouts in reviews — and the happy-hour scene has its own devoted fans, summed up by one guest as “My Favorite Spot for Happy Hour!” (Google review).

That said, reviews are mixed on several fronts. Food draws split opinions: some find it perfectly fine for a casual outing, while others feel the portions and consistency fall short of the price point. As one visitor put it, “The food was okay—pretty basic options like chicken tenders and fries—but it was still good enough for a casual outing” (Google review). Service gets the same treatment, with attentive staff praised on one visit and slow or inattentive service on another — captured by a reviewer who wrote, “All the staff I encountered was extremely helpful and attentive. And the server Lilly was the best” (Google review).

Two concerns come up often enough to warrant attention. Machine reliability is a recurring complaint — “More than half the games were down. A major let down after the disappointment from dinner” (Google review) — and seating waits can run long, with one reviewer recounting that “it took a frustrating 17 minutes before we were even acknowledged” (Google review). A smaller but more serious thread of reviews flags concerns about billing and gratuity practices: “be very careful because what you agree to on paper may not be what you’re actually charged” (Google review). Reviewing receipts carefully is wise.

On the upside, families consistently feel welcome, and the atmosphere and venue size draw praise: “The area is huge and clean. The staff are friendly and the server/bartender was attentive and friendly” (Google review). One happy parent summed it up as, “Your child or inner child will love this place!! Games galore to play!!” (Google review). Parking earns marks for ease, and the overall vibe makes the venue a popular pick for casual outings with kids in tow.

Games & Machines

As a video arcade in the Dave & Buster’s chain, the Pelham Manor location centers on a wide floor of card-and-coin amusement machines, with the brand’s typical mix of driving games, shooters, rhythm titles, redemption games, and midway-style classics like skee-ball. Without a verified, on-the-day machine list from the venue’s own site, specific titles, current availability, and exact game counts can’t be confirmed here — visitors planning a trip around particular machines should check the Dave & Buster’s Pelham Manor page or call ahead before visiting.
