Prince Arcades - Bolingbrook, Illinois

Don Sevcik

One of the best arcades in the Chicago suburbs, hands-down. While the galloping ghost arcade may be bigger, Prince arcade’s intimate feel puts it in the top as well.

The selection of games is plentiful. The place is very clean. And one of my favorite parts about Prince arcade is that you can go and there’s is a good crowd and always open games to play.

Prince arcade is always clean and with a very relaxed atmosphere.

As a fellow entrepreneur, another selling point for me was that the owner used to restore arcade games and then ended up taking the next logical step and opened up his own arcade.

The owner is a down to earth, really cool guy and he knows more about arcade games than you and I could hope to ever figure out in our lifetime.

There’s plenty of parking at the Bolingbrook promenade near the arcade. Just about all the games are kid friendly. And they have an awesome pinball section as well. And the arcade has an impressive uptime as only one pinball machine wasn’t working out of over 50 plus machines at the arcade when visited.

If you haven’t been to Prince arcade recently, they’ve expanded the property to much includes more games and a skee-ball area.

What a great experience. The games on the floor are from old school to new school. Skee ball and multiple pinball machines are also available. I was able to relieve some childhood memories and create new ones. The game assortment has something for everyone. We drove 5 hours one way to come here, and it was worth every minute.

2024 edit - We had my son's birthday party here today. All I can say is that it was absolutely amazing. The owner had everything set up for us and only our group was allowed in the arcade for our private party. Everyone had a blast. Completely worth it. 😀. You can also bring your own food. Reasonable prices in comparison to other kids birthday options.

Such a fun place! Old school arcade games, on free play.

Had such a great time. Took 3 of my boys there. One who is an adult. Then my girlfriend and I. We spent several hours there and had a great time. It was worth the 100 bucks. For all of us.

We hosted our sons 7th bday here today and it did not disappoint. These kids were so stoked they could play as many games as they wanted. Usually you have to pay per game. It's unlimited gaming!!!!
The staff was super accommodating and helpful. Party room is fun and easily fits 15 kids and a few adults.
Will absolutely go back.... at my husband's request. He might have had more fun than the kids haha

With Chicagoland being full of amazing arcade joints. This one hits different. It's family oriented, you can host parties, and generally it's got a nice cozy historic vibe. You'll find old classics, and some amazingly unique games other locations do not have. You can also tell the owner takes great care to make sure every game is working with the classic TV monitors and all. Super worth visiting this family-run business to spend an afternoon taking a time machine back into the hayday of when arcades were king. Plus they have classic skiiball and an amazing selection of pinball.

A great arcade with a wide variety of games to play. Games and fun for all ages. Machines are in great shape and work like they were brand new. The staff is awesome.

They just expand expanded with more room and more games. It may seem small when you first walk in. But looks are deceiving. You can get lost checking out every game you walk by. For older gamers who grew up in the arcades this place is a walk down memory lane. Check this place out if you like arcades.
