From the reviews
This was our first time visiting this place. As you can see we had a good time. The staff was very friendly. They did have bundle packages. So for $25 you get to do two driving experiences and you got money for the games on a gift card. We didn't eat a drink there but we did stay there for about 2-3 hours.
Over the past 40 years I have been to a lot of amusement places. I have to admit that most have been Dave and Busters. Like D&B you will need a card to play games and to keep a tally of tickets. This was my first time visiting Livingston's Amusements.
Very clean and cute place with a little something for everyone of all ages. They have go karts, bumper cars, arcade games, pool tables etc. The pool is reasonable at $15 an hour but the arcade games are a little pricey averaging about $7 a game. But overall a nice little place when you feel like being indoors.
They have a lot of different things to do and the shop is really nice. The only thing is that the kart area isn't that big and the workers aren't friendly. But it is a fun place, especially the Arcade area.
