5 of 11 arcades

Where a card says no price or no hours listed, the venue does not publish it. We would rather leave the gap than fill it with a guess. Prices come from each venue's own website, and we publish one only when the figure appears on the page we took it from. Tell us if we are missing one you know.

Before you go

Quick answers for busy parents.

Cards have replaced coinsBring a card rather than a bag of quarters. Leftover credit is usually not refundable.
Check the prize counter hoursIt sometimes closes before the arcade does, which is a hard conversation with a child holding tickets.
Little ones need a handPlenty of cabinets are built for a taller reach. A step or a lap is often part of the deal.
Watch the ticket mathsRedemption prizes cost far more in play than they do in the shop. Setting a budget first helps.

Common questions about arcades in Tampa

How many arcades are there in Tampa?

We list 11 arcades within 39 miles of Tampa, FL. Every one is a published listing with an address we checked.

Which arcades in Tampa publish their prices?

3 of the 11 here do, and each price was checked word for word against the venue's own page before we published it. The rest do not publish one, so their card says no price listed rather than carrying a guess.

How did Mini Navigators choose these arcades?

We list every one we have within 39 miles of the center of Tampa. Each is a published place with an address we geocoded and checked, and the business can claim its listing to keep the hours and prices current.

Do adults have to pay?

It varies more than you would expect, from free to full price, and it changes the cost of a visit by a lot when there are two of you. The price on each card is what it costs to get a child in. 3 of the 11 on this page publish a price at all, so call ahead about the adult rate before you rely on it.

Do I need to book ahead?

No. These are walk-in, and quieter on a weekday afternoon. Where a venue publishes a booking page, the listing links straight to it.

What should I bring?

A card for credit rather than a bag of quarters, and a budget. Redemption prizes cost far more in play than they do in a shop. Whatever else you need is in the notes beside the listings above.

What else is there to do with kids in Tampa?

Tampa has 15 categories of kid-friendly places on Mini Navigators, from playgrounds and museums to splash pads and zoos. The Tampa hub lists all of them.

Listings last checked 11/03/2026.
