Fun place, but the owners need to cool the Temps down. All the games make it very warm inside. Lots of arcade cabinets from 80s to 2000s, including a nice selection of pinball machines. However, some of the games tend to need repair. If a game isnt fully functional, is it even worth having?

This place is great! Price for gameplay is by the hour and includes everything from pin ball machines to arcade towers to console games. Every visit has definitely been fun!

The place is cool but there arent many child appropriate games. Dont play the claw machines because they will eat your money. Its cheap only charging ten bucks per hour but kind of boring. Whats cool though is that there are a lot of adult games or older eighties games plus BYOB between 9pm -2am

Great time! Great environment! Great price! Definitely recommend this for any Guys Night Out!

This is a great spot to play some old school games and relive your childhood. The cost is cheap and you can stay as long as you want. There are many places to grab a bite right near so it makes it so convenient to make a whole day of it and explore downtown. Stop in an try to beat my high scores! Haha!

Fun and interesting place for kids and adults. Went to a b day party here for a child and think the adults were having just as much fun (if not more fun) with all the pink ball machines

I loved it the staff was nice and the restrooms were clean. And the games took me back to my childhood

Clean. Most things work well. Great selection. Def worth an hour of play !

Really fun place and fairly priced with lots of pinball and shooter options. The one thing I dont recommend is having parties here. The website makes it seem like you get a room separated in the back but its this partially roped off are at the front of the arcade. Its a pretty small area. You can BYOB after a certain time of the evening when its adults only. Had a great time and would consider going back

Brings me back to my 80s childhood when I was 9, and I have a 9 year old (birthday TODAY). Got to share a stellar evening of retro games with him. Great selection. Well maintained. Great staff/owners. Great potential for the citys future in York (if treated properly). I highly recommend!

A great place for a date, time with friends, or to bond with your kid. Great selection of games- I particularly like the side by side games- giant Ms. Pacman for up to four is great and wish they had a few more. Impressive pinball from more than four decades. $10 an hour of unlimited play and BYOB. With a great fridge if beers across the street and a new Wine and Spirits up the block its super convenient.

Cool place will go back

Our group had a really great time in this arcade. There were 5 games that werent working during our visit, no big deal for most but a let down for a person in our group that was wanting to play a specific game. The Guitar Hero game is annoyingly turned up to an insane volume and plays a continuous demo when no one is playing, it completely drowns out the sound of many of the other games you are trying to play in the immediate vicinity.

Had a great time!! They have all the good games and it was fun to share that with my son.

Not all games worked. Some games started but we were not sure if controls were working. Balls in ball toss are in bad shape. Basketball shoot was decent, air hockey was good. It was our first time here. My nine year-old son enjoyed the outing but agreed that it was not the best use of our $20 ($10/hr/person)

Fun place with old & new games. Nice assortment of pinball machines and theres even gaming systems hooked up with modern stuff as well as the classics!

Love this place. My son loves to stop at timeline and always makes new friends.

Great time with my family here. Could have stayed all night. Customer service was great. When an arcade game was not working, they came over right away and fixed it. Mix of old and new games. Many classic games I played as a child. Would recommend this to families and anyone looking for something to do on a rainy day or weekend.

Enjoyed the retro selection of games. I ultimately gravitated to the pinball machines. Well worth the $10 for an hour of unlimited play.

Cool place for pinball

Much fun to be had here. Throw back a few cold ones and escape back to 1994 for some serious nostalgia.

Has no age gap there is something for everyone no matter how old you are!

Will definitely be back! This place is in a great part of York, and theres loads of access to parking garages. It has a great variety of pinball machines and vintage games and they were almost all in good working order!

Love this place and had a great time with our family there. I didnt get the attendants name (I apologize for that) but she noticed our daughter was upset she couldnt play to win a toy so she offered her a small toy right before we left which meant the world to her. It was the gesture that was much appreciated and her going out of her way to help our daughter when one of the games werent working. These are vintage games and we know that so we reiterated not to play hard on them and all was fine. She was actually fascinated more by the attendant showing her how they work, lol. Thank you again for a great time and we will back.

This is a fun stop on a date night after a few drinks around town. They charge by the hour which is nice. Plenty of pin ball machines and shooting games, I just wish they had air hockey or a few more games of that sort since you can get bored of the other options before your hour is up. Other than that its a great place and I will visit again.

Grandson had a fun time all different options for him to do

Was a fun place to go only downside is you cant have outside drinks had to throw almost a full soda away when I went in

Felt like I was back in the 80s. Fun time.

A good deal for some family (or adult) fun. The missing star is because some of the games didnt work correctly or were out of order.

Wonderful people

Awesome place. So glad we have something like this in York.

Had plenty of pinball machines and some old school arcade games. Somehow it got boring after an hour. They charge by the hour which is not bad. If they sold some drinks I think this would be a very popular arcade.

10$/hr unlimited play

Decent place a little bit pricey and when I visited some of the games were either not working or turned off for some reason. Driving by it looks to have gained some new titles recently and still a fun place if you have the extra money to throw away. You pay per time slot ie; 15/30/60min at a time and all machines are on free play. They do sell drinks and some snacks but did not have BYOB like the Hanover location when I was there. This may have changed since then.

Love the arcade. Great location in the city with parking within walking distance. Love going for a good time with friends and on dates

Very cool hang out for video game fans. They have awesome pinball machines. It was a bit warm but I think because the place was so crowded.

Had our daughters party here - staff was great and super accommodating. The fact kids could use all the machines without having to put in money was amazing. Everyone enjoyed it and said it was a great idea!

Truly a gem of a place. So great to keep the old classics alive. Great space close to brewerys and just a blast. So great to get lost in the games and lose track of the time

Wasnt bad just alittle dated

DEFINITELY worth a trip, and an absolutely great time! Good value, fun selection, mellow atmosphere, enjoyable time all around. Started planning my next visit immediately after my first.Note: game selection isnt the ~most~ recent, but the vibe and price more than make up for it, especially compared to the alternatives.

My three friends and I had an awesome experience at the Timeline Arcade. From what I recall, years ago, the Hanover location had more machines, but was much more cramped and in a two story building. It is also BYOB after 9:00 PM! A lot of fun going to the arcade rather than the bar! Pricing is extremely affordable at an hourly rate rather than per play. No need for quarters either. My friends and I will surely be back soon!

Timeline Arcade is a great place to have fun! If youre looking to spend an hour gaming, this is the spot! They also have an all-day package, and its definitely worth while! Also, after 9PM, anyone over 21 is allowed to being their own 6-pack of beer! So, that certainly helps for us grownups wanting to have a drink and play some retro games!Staff is friendly, great atmosphere, and pricing is good too! At $10/hour or $25 for the day, you get plenty of bang for your buck!

Please fix the games! :( So many awesome games from my childhood here but so many of them had buttons/joysticks that didnt fully work. Take pride in your game collection and keep them in working order. New buttons cost $1.50, new Happ joysticks less than $20.I had fun but I probably wont be returning unless I see some major maintenance has been done.

Retro arcade at its finest. The had ALL the old games for sure with a reasonable hourly rate.

Awesome place!! Be prepared to stay hours cause your gonna be a kid again who doesnt want to go home. Friendly and helpful staff. Highly recommended.

This place.... this friggin place.... is AWESOME!!!! $10 for an hour of free play, GTFO! Amazing.Went on a first date here and had an absolute blast. Very relaxed, super clean, no sticky joysticks and nasty buttons. The lady working the desk was super chill and friendly. All the games worked minus like maybe two machines.I highly recommend this spot. Its so cool and super unique

Great place. Tons of fun old games. If you grew up in the 80s or 90s or have kids you need to come here

Finally played Area 51 the whole way through. Simpson’s and TMNT are classics! . It is nostalgia city in there and can’t wait to return.

Fun place to have fun. Reminds me of a place to hang out at as a kid.

My group and I bought all day passes. We were very happy with the price and the fact that as long as you have a wristband, you can come and go as you please. The arcade is very clean, no dust anywhere, and most or all of the machines work very well. The womans bathroom is spotless and does not stink whatsoever, however I am not sure about the mens room, seeing as I cannot go there. Ive seen other people saying that parking may be an issue, but my group and I found a parking garage thats open to everyone nearby, about a 5 minute walk from the arcade. We had no problems with it. I would 100% recommend Timeline Arcade for a group activity or a date. I had so much fun!

If you like retro arcade games then this place is for you! There is probably 50 different video, pinball and tabletop games available to play and you have unlimited play for $10/hr. The place is clean, the machines are in great shape and the staff is friendly enough and ready to help solve any problems. Great place for a birthday party too!

This place is so cool! I brought my boyfriend here for his birthday and he and I both had a blast. We got the all day passes so we could stay as long as we wanted and ended up staying for just shy of 9 hours. Almost everything worked exactly as it should, and the few that didnt, we said something and they looked at it to see what they could do to fix it. They even have soda and chips for sale so if youre playing too hard you have something to eat. 11/10 got my moneys worth.

Excellent arcade, excellent selection and number of machines. would do again anytime

This place is so cool! You can’t beat the price, unlimited games for just $10 an hour! They have a variety of vintage pinball machines, and the Ghost Busters one is my favorite! Makes for a fun date night, would highly recommend!

All you can play for $10 an hour! BYOB if you want alcohol.

Love it! Great selection. Employees are nice. Spending a day there is worth it! :-)

Nice short stroke down memory lane. Playing Atari original Nintendo and pacman on arcade .

Great place to bring your kids...$25/day is a great deal!

Amazing staff and great games! I couldnt think of a better way to spend a Friday night!

The arcade is awesome. So many retro games that makes your head spin All For One price. Weve been to both locations now. We honestly like the one in Hanover better. The only thing that I would change is that they would have better parking and Hanover they only have a tiny parking lot that fits maybe eight cars and its very hard to get in and out of. Otherwise its off street parking and the York location is only off street parking. The venue itself is anything and everything a vintage gamer can ask for. I must admit the employees and the owner also really nice and accommodating. Always there to give you a nice dinner recommendation.

10/10 Has a MvC2 machine best arcade in miles

Super fun place. I love bringing my son here. Paying hourly is so much better than plunking quarter after quarter into games at other fun centers. Theres been a new game of two every time we come. Facility is clean and well maintained.

Great price and fun time

Lots of really cool old school games! Cant beat 10.00 for an hour of unlimited games!

If youre going to play a specific game they list on their website, call first to make sure its working, or actually there. Went to play Donkey Kong and was told it was at a show. I counted at least 10 games that were unplayable but still on and not marked as broken. I fixed two machines myself when the credit button wouldnt work.Great idea, but the place needs someone who knows about these things to keep them in playable order./edit: I was apparently lied to the first time I was there, I was told today they dont have Donkey Kong.

Great family entertainment and affordable pricing. Staff are always friendly and willing to help

Its a good place me and my friend went their and we play all lot of games

Excellent arcade for older games and console play and what not(lots of pinball machines), not a huge place. so there arent many group racing games or others that take up alot of space. Everygame being on free play was excellent, and 25$for the day when you can leave and come back is awesome. the Staff was excellent, and the environment was good as well.

$10 an hour for limitless play? Cant even play using quarters?

Awesome old-school arcade experience!!

I would recommend it to anyone, whos into old school arcade games, such as myself.

All I can say is SO MUCH FUN!! They have all the old school games from pinball to super Nintendo. They even have new school games including PS4. A pool table and air hockey! Good times

For those that grew up in the 70s, 80s or 90s, enjoy! All the fun of gaming without needing to quickly fumble with quarters. Even something for those that do not want to Rampage on video games, air hockey for example. I could not get the original still cabinet pong game to start but it was a fun history time travel.

1. The lights on the ceiling create a glare on all of the pinball machines glass. With the pinball machines the glare was over top of the bumpers. It made it a little difficult to see them unless I stood back a little bit and leaned forward. Perhaps my height just gave me a bad angle, and people shorter or taller than me might not have that issue due to a different viewing angle.2. The 6 player dual screen X-Men cabinet is not located in a good position. The Dance Dance Revolution game next to it is so close that it blocks some of the floor space in front of the cabinet. I had one foot on the floor and one foot on the Dance Dance Revolution platform, so I could play with a specific character. There was also a glare on the right side of the cabinet coming from the window.Please please please dont get rid of the X-Men cabinet though. I want to return and play it again.But the place is great overall. I spent 4.5 hours there today and played several fun games. The $25 all day pass with unlimited play of every game is nice. I want to check out the Hanover location sometime soon.That Ghostbusters pinball machine has the coolest scream.

Fun spot to take kids or get together and take yourself back to the era of good gaming

Awesome place for the price. Not only do they have old arcade games, but they also have an old box TV (you know the kind. Theyve got wooden paneling and theyre basically furniture) with old gaming systems such as an SNES, as well as a PS4 and one other console I didnt catch. All the games are labelled with which decade they were made which is cool. Was hoping for some more newer arcade games, but what they have is definitely rad, especially for the price. Honestly, you cant beat that price. Looking forward to BYOB nights.

The place is fun, and the prices affordable. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Angela always makes us feel welcome and is always working to ensure that we enjoy ourselves.

They have stuff for all gamers modern consoles in Old consoles and arcade machines

Great place to get your pinball and video fix! Would give it 5 stars but some of the video games and pinball games had some issues. But, I highly recommend it anyway!

Had a blast playing games with friends and family. Very clean establishment and super friendly staff. Cant beat the price for how much fun we had, great to have a unique spot like this in York. Genius idea!

Great place, wonderful staff. Will definitely go again.

My nephews had their birthday party here. There was a slight mix up of the time scheduled. It was scheduled for 11am on a Sunday only to find out that they didnt open until noon. The guy working that day made it up to us by giving us an extra hour. 3 hours instead of just 2. Party room in the back, awesome games to play. Cannot wait to go back again! BONUS-parking in Downtown York is free on Sunday!

Its really good because u can play alot of games and dont have to be bored so much i liked it

My and my son had a blast here! He was playing games 25+ year old games and having a ball as was I!!

So much fun playing the old games I grew up with...

Fun place to hang out and cant beat the price to play some classic games. Finally can beat an arcade game workout frantically getting quarters before time runs out.

Always has been fun when I went. Great for kids and adults and BYOB after 9PM and there are bars all around so its really convenient.

Fantastic retro fun!!

I don’t usually write reviews but felt people should know ahead of time, this is the second time now my wife and I have come to timeline arcade and paid money to play vintage games only to find out after getting in that at least 5 of the games (and there’s only about 15-20 total) are broken or turned off with an out of order sign. Total waste of money and time, if I’m going to spend my hard earned money I expect the games to work, and it’s not just a case of “sometimes the games break down” because some of the machines broken today were the same ones that were broken last time we were in 5 months ago (MTV drumscape), and when you mention it to the employee on duty you get a “oh sorry” brief response and that’s it. Won’t be coming back.

It was great. Bought back good memories

Excellent arcade! Alot of the old school games. Asteroids, Joust, ms pac man, pac man, donkey kong,centipede and much more

Great place. Genuinely one of the best times Ive had. Large selection of games, from the classics to ones I had never heard of. Reasonably priced, good for individuals, pairs, and even small groups.

Cool games but a lot of them always seem to be broken everytime I visit.

Me and the gf usually go to the Hanover location, and decided to check out the York location yesterday since we are always so pleased with our visits there....and this trip was no exception. Its an hour drive to Timeline each way, and its worth every mile. Great game selection (better than Hanover IMO), great prices, great time. Will return next Sunday.

Pretty neat place

My son and his friend loved having his b-day party here. Lots of current as well as classic arcade games. Brought back some memories going to the arcade as a kid.

Good time! Lots of retro games but several do not work

My son and I love going in a playing the video games and pinball machines. For me it takes me back to when I was younger and would visit arcades regularly. It is fun sharing something like that with him.

Whats not to love about this place vintage video games and by the hour prices oh and if you want to have some real fun you can go there late night and bring your six pack they are BYOB at certain hours of the day! We like to go and have dinner across the street at the Holy Hound and then come in and play video games for an hour I highly recommend this place

Something to do to keep some teen boys busy on a Saturday night. We had lots of fun. Looking forward to doing it again soon! I was told one is opening in Lancaster soon. Yeah!
