Love this place but our group was almost not allowed in because we didn’t have masks and it’s required. The employee at the front door said they can’t offer any masks but another employee came in later and just handed us some. If companies require masks have enough masks to handout to the ones giving you money during these hard times with business or your business will fail....

The Murray one is the best but this ones solid. Got the clown game and most the good pinball ones.

Its a good way to have fun without using too much money. There is a ton of games there. Sometimes the inside smells kind of bad, but overall I really like the place.

Fun place to take the kids and watch them have fun. Lots of fun even when its busy. Fun for adults and kids. Half of the place is older arcades. Pinball games, and racing games etc. Other half gives you tickets depending on how well you did. My kids loved it, your will too.

More arcade games than you can beat with a stick. Much cheaper than other places too. My son and I were in here by ourselves for at least an hour. Ive always kept it a secret but please please dont let it go out of business.

Awesome place to take the kids and play some old video games mixed with some new video games. Also just a lot of fun games in general. Pretty much anything you can think to play theyll have and for a good price. We always have a great time and the employees are always very helpful.

Not just for kids. Great place for Date night ect. This arcade is a blast. It has air hockey, simulated rollercoaster, pinball, carnival games, skill games, luck games, & my favorite wizard of oz. & Willey Wonka coin/card drops. Kids love that you can win prizes. Also your points you win go onto a card that if you get enough you can actually use them for online shopping.

First time here. It was a blast! Some of my most memorable pinball machines were here. They also offered some classic arcade games too. Its a great way to spend a couple hours with the family without breaking the bank. Only reason I didnt give this 5 stars is because quite a few of the pinball machines didnt work.

Fun arcade! Everyone in the family enjoys it.

Lots of fun. Machines take nickels instead of quarters so its actually a lot of fun for less than you would normally need to pay at an arcade.If you havent been to nickel mania you should check it out. I took a couple of different dates there a few years ago and we always had a lot of fun.They have games ranging from a game or two from the n64 era all the way back to Atari if I am remembering correctly. Most of them are snes or arcade classics, like metal slug, time crisis, and street fighter II.

Fun place! $2.25 for admission and you use nickels for the machines. Pretty basic and fun! Theyve got the ticket machines, arcade machines, and two vending machines as well. No food or drink is allowed in though, bit of a bummer but understandable

Went there for a kids birthday party. The room they gave you was good and my kids had fun. My gripes are more that the aisles are small and its makes it feel way to cramped. It also feels like its more geared to adults or teens but still would go again.

We visit quite often. I feel like this store is small, its so jam packed with stuff. Its hard to walk down some of the aisles. It feels cramped.On the plus side, its really clean, and the employees are kind.

Walk back in time at the arcade! This is what most of our childhoods revolved around...pin ball, Pac-Man, space invaders, and much more! Love that they update games and have some that you can simply put in big bills if you’d like to. Always friendly staff and I’ve never been when it’s busy so my family had the arcade pretty freely to ourselves. Can’t miss out on a good time for a nickel!

This place is great! $20 will get you a couple hours of entertainment with some prizes at the end. Highly recommend Nickel Mania!

Review №25

It was super fun. Each game costs 1-7 nickels but it is super cool to have a big ol bag of nickels in your hand. You feel like a little kid again. They have tons of cool arcade games and my friends and I had a blast. Definitely going back multiple times.

Old machines. Some are out of order. Not impressed with the cleanliness. But for 15 dollars you can have a great time with 3 younger kids. My kids love it.

The place is huge. Alot of selection of games. Good mix of older retro games and newer modern games. Lots of pinball machines. The employee was helpful and knowledgeable. Got a month membership and cant wait to get enough tickets for that squirtle!

Review №42

I like this place, it hasnt been often machines are out of use, or malfunctioning. If it can be fixed and a worker is notified, theyll fix it. I give nicklemania 4 stars overall. The people that go sometimes, however... Ive had great visits and have had terrible visits because of fellow patrons. Tonight, there were people hogging machines all over the place. Until all of their nickels were out, pretty inconsiderate if you ask me. Other times that I have gone have been great! Good turn around on machines and consideration being used. It only takes one person to hog a machine for others to adapt to that bad behavior. Dont be that person, and dont let your kids be that person.

Review №46

Having never been here before, I was impressed. It was a lot more fun than I thought it would be. It costs like $2.50-$3 to get in, and then you buy a bag of nickels for $5. Its a fun date. My fiance and I played lots of the video games together. Most games take 1-4 nickels. So in reality youre not spending tons. They have pinball machines there too! We went on Thursday around 630. It started to get super busy around 745-8. Its a fun date.

Cheap fun. Pretty clean and fairly well taken care of. We like coming here to spend some time and a little bit of money. Games need some work but for the most part its a nice way to spend an hour or two.

My niece and nephew love Nickel Mania. They have a lot of fun games, the tickets keep coming. We always have a lot of fun. All the machines are not always up and running but enough of them are overall you feel like you get your monies worth. We love going when it isnt super busy, we get easier access to the machines.

Most pinball machines in all of Utah under one roof and they are in surprisingly good order. So many fun games in one place. Reasonably priced, fun way to spend a few hours with the whole family or friends.

Review №57

Classic arcade experience. Great for kids in that 6-14 age range. Can be a little crazy on a Friday night, but everyone is having fun so its ok. Also good for teenagers on a date. Great place overall.After about 2 hours the amount of light and sound stimulation might make you want to sit alone in a dark room for awhile.

Perfect date night activity as well as hanging out with the kids. My wife and I have been here a few times and love it! We usually give our tickets away to some kids at the end, but its pretty entertaining for a quick night out.

Review №63

Pretty decent selection of older games, pinball games, a few newer games. We lost a few coins that machines ate or were out of order, but I just kept track and asked for them back all at once which they did without issue. Staff seemed friendly. Some of the games could use some upkeep.

Br
Review №64

My wife and I love this arcade! There’s lots to do and since the machines take nickels, you can have a ton of fun for super cheap. The only problem is that when you’re ready to turn in the tickets you have to yell at the employees to get their attention when they are standing right there. They obviously have better things to do. I guess we don’t go for service, we go for fun.

$2.25 admission, then all games just cost nickels. Best deal in town! Only food/drink is from vending machines, but at least they arent overpriced. 30 pinball machines! All were in great shape. We had a fantastic time.

The best nickel mania compared to the others - better games, still uses nickels, and tons of fun! Great admission deal in the Utah coupon calendar too

I come here a lot and I love this place! lately when ive gone on Saturdays its been crazy busy. But the staff is on point and always willing to help me with game problems even if they have a big line at the counter and at the register. but other than that I love this place and will continue to bring my kids. maybe they could get more staff since it can sometimes get dirty since they are always busy.

Pretty well maintained with lots of different games. Kids and adults are able to find things to do. The only downfall is that you still have to pay to get in if youre just watching your kids and not playing yourself.

Fun place for a date night or family outing. Wide variety of games; either earning tickets or just arcade style. Staff is always friendly and helpful. Definitely a place for kids and teens but can still be fun for adults, if you are into arcade games. I always spend way too much money trying to win tickets but its fun.

One of the greatest nickel arcades in Utah that Ive discovered so far staff is overly friendly went for a birthday party for my 5 year old the cost was very reasonable especially since we had 10 friends with us they serve food as well as drinks and you can reserve rooms there as well most of the games run off of a card system so you dont have to worry about the children dropping their bags of coins

Review №79

Most real arcade games cost 5 to 15 cents. Ticket games cost anywhere from 15 to 40 cents on average. Great selection of both old school arcade games and more recent ones such as silent scope and hydro thunder. Most all games are also in good shape with working controls.

Lots of fun for the whole family! Some of the machines were a bit old and tried to steal our money but we came out victorious. Our three-year-old daughter got the jackpot with 250 tickets and she was so excited. The first thing she bought with it 580 tickets was a sucker.

Review №93

Much better than NickelCity in Provo. Nickelmania has just as good of selection (if not better), and the price is significantly less. Not to mention they still use the inserting of nickels into the games and physical tickets, which is for some reason much more satisfying than the card. Also, check their website for a coupon on the entry fee. It’ll end up being half the price of NickelCity. This is our go to nickel arcade even though we live in Provo.

The place is nice. A nickel or two to play just about any game here. On my stop in I couldnt get enough of Crazy Taxy for some reason. Sad I missed some of the better games due to the being out of order.
