💬 What Visitors Say
- Bring cash and ask staff to break it into quarters, dimes, and pennies for the coin-operated games. The on-site ATM only dispenses $10 bills, so having pre-broken change saves time.
- Call ahead (719-685-9815 or 719-659-5371) before visiting if you specifically want to play the famous 12-horse English Derby game, as it frequently undergoes maintenance and availability varies.
- Expect a mix of working and non-working machines due to the challenges of maintaining vintage arcade equipment over a century old. This is part of the charm, but patience is recommended.
- Plan a full afternoon by combining the arcade visit with nearby attractions: grab food at the Burger Bar next door, explore Manitou Springs Main Street shops, and enjoy a scenic riverside stroll.
- Games start at just $0.01-$0.25 per play, making this one of the most affordable entertainment options in the area—perfect for families on a budget or those wanting extended playtime.
