Dorky's is the place to have fun and feel nostalgia for the days of "hitting the arcade". There's always good times when one goes to Dorky's. And, yes I'm rocking a Naruto vest. 😁

I'd like to say this place is so fun and worth every QUARTER! My kids had a blast even though the fun wasn't about them (haha.) They sell food and it was actually very good along with snacks and BEER! The beer prices range between $13 per beer and as low as $3/$4 per beer. We bought snacks, tacos and 4 of the more pricey beers at $11 a beer x4 and spent $40 on coins (aka quarters) for 3 hours of FUN! Remember about $40 was for beer $20 on snacks and a few tacos. It was indeed worth the money and everyone who worked there was very kind to us and our children. YES you can bring your kids so please know it's a family fun environment. We will indeed be back! P.S. If you were born before 92' you'll know every game that they have. It's very RETRO and Nostalgic!

Easy to get to, friendly staff, lots of arcade games that are challenging and fun! There's something for everyone. Games take quarters and theres several machines to change out cash. It's an arcade place- don't expect tiny kids to be entertained. Good for around ages 8yo- adults. Good selection of beer, drinks, and a decent selection of food. There's a few tables to sit at and eat or rest. When staff is approached about an issue with a game (if any) they are quick to respond and try their best to fix it.

Dorky's arcade is still a fun place to hang out! But it has aged since I was last here 7 years ago. It has with stand 2020 pandemic and apparently several rough evenings as they have won a lawsuit based on damages to its facility. But it's still open and has lots of newer games in place. My family found several arcade cabinets not working properly. Pizza parlor is gone too along with doors to bathrooms. Tons of beer, drinks, snacks, and candy was on hand. Arcade was still running on quarters to my surprise. Not a place to take young kids as no ticket style games present.

Yes they do. My initials are on it as top score, that's why I'm certain.
Yes. Had a blast! Loved going there. Could have spent all night playing the games.
Yes! But on Fri, Sat they have a DJ so its hard to play it.
Yes good place lots of places where the kids can spend quarters
It's 21 and up after 9pm, not sure before that time.
Was quarter operated when we were there on Feb. 14th
We are back open this Thursday
Sorry, cant answer. Just went there to play video games
I don't know. Ask les or one of their workers
Always able to get drinks offer play game when I wanted. Never waited.
MvC 2, MK 1/2 and SF 2. If I regal correctly, they do pinball tourneys.
They have House of the dead 1 and 2, and a new 4 player tomb raider shooter
Didn't notice it if they do
There is no entry fee, but sadly we are currently closed.
3pm - 10pm
My bones broke so I had to have a 5 month recovery for it
We have a handful of prize lockers and a couple of skill cranes.
That is my partner. He had made great strides since that day.
All of them
When I was there for my birthday on the 3rd, there were children everywhere in the afternoon, so if I were to guess, it would be 21 and over only after 9pm. Fyi, the pizza is pretty good!
For food and drinks, yes! They also have an ATM inside for your cash needs.
We are not. We are closed on 4th off July, Thanksgiving and Christmas day.
Hello there! If you have a handicap pass or license plate, you are able to use any of the street parking. I've been told, but my employee who had the pass. She says she does not have to pay on the street as long as the pass is displayed. Please remember to park facing the way that is posted. Some areas you have to park head-in, others it is back-in. They will still ticket for that, regardless of handicap pass.
I am not for sure but i do not think so
Yes! We have over 40 gluten free drink options. We also have gluten free pizza crusts upon request.
Weekdays for sure. Plus we have our best deals on those days. Friday, Saturday and Sunday are busy.
It's probably not meant for the public. I'd ask an employee or call them.
They also have alcoholic, low-calorie seltzer drinks, if cider and beer are too heavy. I would make the trip to Add-a-Ball in Seattle, if it's an issue though
The machines take quarters but the cost is between $0.25-2 for most stuff.
They don't have anything like coin pusher. They don't use tickets or tokens, just quarter-operated arcade games and pinball.
I work in the bar, we offer gluten free crusts. Please call ahead of time so we can make sure they are available.
Almost positive Service Animals are accepted other then that it is a restaurant so no pets
Yes, regrettably. He did try to half heartedly apologize at the time of the incident due to negative press. As far as I know, BLM hasn't called for the end of the boycott. Which is very sad because it actually is a very cool place!
