Arcade Venue

Sea Cave is a video arcade in New Orleans, Louisiana, located at 3000 St Claude Avenue. The venue sits within the city proper and is recorded as part of the local gaming scene alongside a range of larger and more open-format options. Its name and tight weekly operating window give it the character of an intentional, single-evening destination rather than a sprawling chain venue.

According to public listing data, Sea Cave operates only on Thursdays from 6PM to 2AM, with every other day of the week listed as Closed. That narrow window means the venue functions more like a curated weekly gathering than an everyday drop-in spot. Visitors planning a trip should anchor their evening to that Thursday schedule and confirm details by phone before heading out.

New Orleans hosts a varied mix of retro and modern gaming venues, and Sea Cave is listed alongside other New Orleans-area options including Dave & Buster’s New Orleans, Zero Latency VR New Orleans, Emporium Arcade Bar, and Surge Entertainment. Readers comparing the city’s gaming scene can use the directory’s arcade finder to weigh these stops side by side and decide which fits their evening.

The Scene

Sea Cave carries a public rating of 4.7 from 244 reviews, a strong score that suggests an enthusiastic local following. Because the venue record does not include a curated review summary or individual highlight excerpts, our editors cannot quote specific player feedback in this section. Readers should weigh the overall 4.7 score alongside the very limited weekly operating hours when deciding whether to plan a visit.

A high rating combined with a one-night-a-week schedule is an unusual combination, and it points to a venue that has built its reputation around a focused, recurring slot rather than high volume. Players who want current details — lineup, admission policy, or pricing — should contact the venue directly by phone or check its Instagram page, since those specifics are not captured in our listing data. Venue operators who want to add review excerpts or update this information can use the directory’s listing claim form to bring the record up to date.

Games & Machines

The Sea Cave venue record does not include a specific cabinet list or machine inventory, and our homepage analysis came back empty for this listing. What is documented is the venue’s category — Video arcade — which points to an electronic-gaming focus rather than a pinball bar, darts hall, or full-service barcade format. As a result, this section can only describe what the documented category implies.

Visitors looking for specific titles, generations of hardware, or tournament lineups should reach out to the venue through the listed phone number or its Instagram page to confirm the current rotation. For broader context on what other New Orleans venues offer, the directory’s city page collects nearby options, and the interactive arcade map shows where each one sits in the metro.

Parking and exact transit options are not documented in the venue record, so visitors planning their route should consult a current map service before heading out.

The hours pattern is straightforward but narrow: the venue is open only on Thursdays from 6PM to 2AM. Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday are all listed as Closed. Plan a Thursday-evening visit rather than a weekend drop-in, and treat the 6PM opening as the start of a long evening session.
