This spot certainly is a whole lot of fun. Great activities available for the whole family and very reasonable prices. They have an excellent selection of classic arcade cabinets and pinball machines that are in good condition. Considering this being an arcade that attracts youth who are not always mindful of their hygiene, everything was clean (including the restrooms). I wish there was more food options for those who have gluten allergies, but maybe thats asking for too much. All in all, Funspot is fun for one and all.

This place is absolutely awesome, a ton of video games, pinball, rides for the kids, a bowling alley, a restaurant, a bar, indoor mini golf and a ton of other fun stuff to do! Its also a museum and has an ice cream spot next door. I have been coming here for years with friends and now I bring my young kids here. They go crazy and have insane amounts of fun.

Ive been going every year for the last 15 years. Sometimes, multiple times a year.Always a great time. There have been years where there seem to be more out of orders on the classic games but as someone who has repaired these older games, I completely understand that they can be temperamental and they were never made to last this long.

Still the classic family fun spot it’s always been, but it could definitely use some upgrades and repairs (Skee ball specifically had lanes out of service and multiple active lanes that would occasionally just ignore 50 point buckets). Seeing the sea of retro games on the top floor, though, was really cool and brought me back. And... there’s just something inherently fun about collecting tickets for prizes, even at 40.

It had been a while since I went there. I have children now. It was even better this time. Was sad to see so many games out of order in the classic area. But these machines are such antiques I can only imagine how hard it is to keep them all going. Staff were all amazing. Everyone i met was friendly and helpful. Did not try the food. Bathrooms were very clean. I also love the rustic atmosphere. Next time we will be up earlier and stay all day. Three hours was not long enough to see and play everything.

This place is a lot of fun and has something for everyone! Whether you like classic arcade games, pinball, or playing for tickets they have it all! There are a couple of places to get food or an adult beverage. Bowling and mini golf too! Go check out Funspot if youre on the area.

This place is definitely worth the drive. Unbelievable how much selection there is with so many classics. The nostalgia had me and old gamer girl almost in tears....we didnt know where to start. City moms, this is the day trip youve been looking for. And theres so many other attractions in the area if youre looking for a weekend getaway. Highly recommend for all ages!

We love vintage arcades and games, this was a dump. Dirty and stained. Felt grimy and unclean.We came on a Tuesday in Fall and it was dead. After a few minutes some teens and a bowling team arrived and not one person wore a mask. We also noticed the staff did not wear masks. Thats a big 0 stars from us in the middle of a global pandemic that has killed friends and family. We will support businesses that take their customers saftey seriously.

The place has a great variety of games; a top floor dedicated to older arcade games (which has an awesome atmosphere and ambiance of vintage games). It also has separate eating places, a mini golf section, a bowling alley, and multiple ticket machines and token dispensers to go along with the two prize counters. The downside is that with many machines and games, it’s hard to clean everything and maintain the interior. The interior of the place has ripped carpet and smells dusty and old. But overall a great place to go, won’t be beat.

This place is really nice. Actually as my 8 year old Godson said, this place is amazing. There are 3 levels.....video games, mini golf, bowling all under the same roof. They also have many games with chances to win tickets to redeem for prizes.Great place to take the kids.

Review №15

Great bang for your buck! Word of caution in pandemic times. No mention of face coverings on the posted Covid safety signs, so a fair amount of people walking around with no masks at all. Wouldve preferred that they be required, but we still had a good time regardless.

My partner and I built a vacation to Laconia, with funspot being the main attraction. This place will be one of my favorite memories for the rest of my life. I am so grateful for its existence.

Review №17

It has great games and many other fun things to do, but its too exspensive, and the prizes are horrible. I had to spend 600 tickets in order to get a small cup of candy that tasted like medicine. I recomend the arcades on weirs beach way more than this dump.

Review №18

This place is incredibly cool. I was a little bummed by some of the games that are out of order but it comes with the territory that maintenance might be tough when you have the worlds largest collection of arcade machines to deal with. Between the mini golf, the skiball row, the neverending pinball machines, and all the arcade games, we had an amazing time.

Review №19

It is a pretty great all around arcade. Would expect with covid to see more people going around cleaning handles and machine surfaces. Very busy place. A lot of various machines out of service but with over 600 there is plenty to do. Go bowling or dine at the restaurant.

Review №23

Weve been to Funspot many times as a family over the years but I was unsure about enjoying the arcade during the pandemic. In past years theres been lots of people and I was worried about being able to keep appropriate physical distancing.We decided to go when they first opened as it tends to be less busy. We stayed for nearly two hours and I felt comfortable the entire time. Ninety-five percent of patrons were wearing masks and all staff were. I observed staff cleaning the Skee Ball machines and balls and several game machines.So happy to be able to give a good review during these crazy times. Thank you!

Its Funspot the worlds largest arcade. This place has been around my entire life. Always a good place to take the kids, grandchildren or yourself. All the games you remember from your teens in operation.

Review №25

This place was a nice spot in N.H. However most of the games were out of order and could not be played. Also the bartender when we went called last call however some other customers were given drinks after last call due to “a difference of opinion”. So basically if you’re not a regular or rude to the bartender good luck.

Review №28

Their ice cream was great and you get so much for such a low price. My mom had told me it was the largest arcade in the world. Though I didnt go in,some of the attractions are shut down for Covid,like the big tower,rope bridge thing at front. But I did get to see a goose on the loose As we were walking up there was a goose running at full speed ahead, he was booking it, his little legs sprinting..it was hilarious, so I admit it lived up to its name Funspot. The woman who served us said theres often a family of geese in the back so maybe they had a family dispute & Papa was a Rolling Stone, hes like Im out,peace️ & This US Covid Craziness is Nuts, Im jetting north of the Border again, Canada or Bust ️

So much fun! So affordable! Great venue for all ages. They have so many classic 80s games as well as new ones. Brings back so many memories of yesteryear. They even had a display of the Shoot the Bear game they had restored in a episode of American Restoration. Most of the games only take 1 token ( 25 cents-or even less if you throw a 20 spot in). We cant wait to go back.

The whole place was rather worn down and the facilities were disgusting, however it did seem like the kids enjoyed it. I say go to the bathroom elsewhere and bring sanitizer/wipes for the games and such. The whole time we were there we didnt see a single employee even attempt to clean in the slightest!

Nostalgia heaven! You can spend hours in here and not play the same game twice; theres so many to choose from - most all of them classics. Fairly priced, and tons of fun.Definitely go out of your way to go here; theres games for everybody - from arcade classics to claw machines. You wont be disappointed.

The most original and impressive arcade Ive ever seen...very nostalgic....thank you Bob! Bob is the original owner from the 1950s!! ..great for kids too! This place is a piece of video game history...game enthusiasts with love it, others can enjoy other entertainment within like bowling, a tavern and mini golf. Definitely go here if in the Laconia area!

If you are visiting New Hampshire, then this is a must-go. Over 300 retro arcades that have the exact same experience they had at their prime. The staff is very nice and helpful. The place is clean and will make a perfect visit to show your family what video games were like back in the day. I did not try their food.

Ive gone here consistently since I was young, but its getting more and more disappointing. It seems like each time I go, more of the games are out of order or eating my coins. If they would actually update their games and do their best to keep them in working order, this would be an amazing place to have fun.

If youre just going there to play old retro arcade games this is the place for you! Its fun for a good few hours. The ticket system really needs work though. The prizes are really awful and not at all worth the money spent. We won over 10k in tickets only to be able to get a Chinese finger trap and an over sized pen. I enjoyed the old school games on the second floor, only a quarter each.

If you love arcade games its a must visit. Having played quite a few elsewhere...the flippers on these pinball machines as well as the rest of the mechanics are in far better condition. Also get a deal on the tokens $20 is more then I could spend as a big fan of arcades. Place is littered with cool posters too.Serve beer down stairs.

Wonderful place. I’ve been going here for over 30 years. Best arcade I’ve ever been to, I was amazed as a kid and I still am so impressed with this place and grateful that it stays open. Not a lot of arcades any more and older gamers like me greatly appreciate it.

This place has been a family favorite for years. Fairly inexpensive for an arcade, makes a good activity for the day. The pizza place is a little pricey and the quality is a little iffy. They have a tavern that serves beer and cocktails, a bowling alley, bingo hall, mini golf, adventure course and of course more vintage arcade games than anywhere else in the world. A nice kiddy area with rides and games and a play area with slides and playhouses.

Awesome arcade. The older machines all cost 1 token like in the old days, and offer hours of fun. $20 put me and my boyfriend up for more than two hours here. They also have minigolf for $5.A great place for cheap, fulfilling fun and to satisfy the inner child that just wants to enjoy an 80s arcade again.

Re
Review №95

Would be a 5 star if it wasnt for how disgusting everything was. Also nearly half of the arcade machines did not operate properly and there were no out of order signs to stop you from throwing away your money. But on the options alone it is most definitely the best arcade around but doesnt deserve a 5 star when it is so very poorly maintained and many machines did not work.

Funspot really IS a fun spot. There are games that adults and children both fun enjoyable. They have a great bowling alley, bar, concession area and mini golf. Ive also hosted my sons Birthday parties there two years in a row and they are wonderful hosts! The only downfall is some of the games are older and will either be out of order or take your tokens and dont let you play.
