When you’re on the way to the Dave Walter dealership, you can treat your kids to a day they won’t forget by stopping off at one of the local arcades. Here are a few of the local businesses in Akron that offer great video arcades.
- Rinky Dink Family Fun Center
The Rinky Dink is a cute, fun-filled attraction center that is conveniently located at 2390 Medina Road in Medina, Ohio. The venue is much more than an arcade: It offers a jungle gym, and outdoor area, excellent mini golf, Go Karts, Bumper Boats, Batting Cages, Inflates, and a Pirates vs. Aliens illuminated light game. There is also a special zone just for toddlers. The arcade at Rinky Dink is fantastic, with many options to choose from and games for all ages. There are over 35 games in all! Conventional choices like Pac-Man as well as games that demand physical agility (like dancing and stepping) are available. Some games offer prize winnings, allowing kids to trade winning tickets for prizes like candy and toys. Rinky Dink is also available for fun birthday parties.
- Chuck E. Cheese
If you’re looking to give your kids a treat, then you don’t need to look any further than an outing at Chuck E. Cheese’s. The great thing about this venue is that you know this chain offers both quality and reliability. The bad thing is that a visit here–much like a visit at Rinky Dink–will probably take longer than a brief, thirty-minute stopover. But if you have the time on your hands, the fun to be had could be well worth the investment.
The Chuck E. Cheese’s in Akron is located at 2779 West Market Street. Favorite attractions for kids include high-tech simulator games, great prizes, and of course, yummy pizza. Arcade features galore include conventional arcade games like Whack-a-Mole, as well as the latest in arcade game technology. Chuck E. Cheese’s strives to keep prices affordable for parents while maintaining safety and cleanliness. Free Wi-Fi is available for those who need to be connected during their adventure.
- Arena 51 Laser Tag
Arena 51 may not be an arcade venue per say, but it does offer the fun of technology while giving your kids a workout. This new venue has received excellent reviews, and it proves to be enjoyable to both young and old. Prices are reasonable, with one game costing $8.50 and an unlimited amount for $27.50. Teenagers will love the Friday night all-night laser tag, which runs from 11 p.m. to 7 a.m. Camera technology helps create a secure and visible environment, and you can see inside the game from the lobby area. Arena 51 Laser Tag is also available for party rentals. Arena 51 is located at 13409 Smith Road in Middleburg Heights.
The next time you’re on your way to the Dave Walter VW, get ready for a fun-filled day with your kids. These arcade options are not only bound to get them excited, but they all offer opportunities for great midday workouts and lots of laughter. Consider a visit to one of these venues when you come in for a new car test drive.
