October 21, 2007 Sunday night we went to Dave and Busters as a family night for my youngest son's 20th Birthday. We walked in and the Bar area was not full but the design was really tight with chairs and the bar, not a lot of walking area. the T.V.'s were all above the bar but at an angle where you had to sit funny in your chair to watch the football game on. The we walked into the game area and the noise they had pumped in there was actually really to loud. It blasts you out till you get adjusted to it. Once you wonder thru all the games and lights you find a machine to buy a card to load with money so you can play in the adult arcade. We played a bunch of different games, but the noice level seemed to be increased even though there were maybe 20 people in the whole room playing games. They made it sound like there were 100's of people in there. I realize they need to make it seem fun but each machine was drowning out the machine next to it. We did the bowling and the horse racing next to me was so loud I couldn't even talk to the person standing next to me. It was fun to go in and see, and the prices weren't bad, but this location needs to figure it out. The people coming there do like to talk, heck this is Minnesota so the need to measure the sound a bit. Winters coming and people do like to do things indoors, so make this place nice to be at. Not sure if will go back...maybe if really bored this winter.
Pros: some place new and different
Cons: need to tone down the sound a bit so people can have fun with the people they came with
