Dave & Buster’s Scranton is a video arcade in northeastern Pennsylvania, operating under the well-known national Dave & Buster’s banner. The venue is located in Moosic, a borough just south of downtown Scranton along the familiar stretch of Interstate 81 that links the Lackawanna Valley to the Pocono foothills. The setting positions the arcade as a convenient stop for both local residents and visitors passing through the Wyoming Valley region.
As a chain entertainment center, Dave & Buster’s blends rows of arcade machines with sports-bar-style food service and large-format screens. The Moosic location carries that same template, fitting a broader regional arcade scene that already includes independent rooms like Bartari, Lahey Family Fun Park, and Mayhem Amusements Arcade, along with the long-running Idle Hours North and Idle Hours South. Together those venues give Scranton-area players a mix of chain-style entertainment and classic neighborhood arcade stops.
Travelers planning a trip around the area can use the broader arcade finder directory to compare hours, ratings, and machines at nearby venues, and the interactive arcade map to plot a multi-stop route across northeastern Pennsylvania.
