Dave & Buster’s is one of those go-to spots. With a mix of arcade games, food, and a lively atmosphere, it’s an easy option for everything from Family Outings to Date Nights, and even better when you know how to take advantage of the deals to make it more affordable.
Looking for a fun night out without spending a fortune? Here are some easy ways to save big at Dave & Buster’s while still having a blast.
Half-Price Games Sunday – Thursday (limited time)
One of the best deals going right now is half-price games, available Sunday through Thursday for a limited time. That means you can play over 150 games, including popular arcade favorites and claw machines, for half the cost.
If you’ve ever taken kids (or let’s be honest… gone yourself), you know how fast those credits can go. This deal is a great way to stretch your play time and get way more value for your money.
Dollar Wings Twice a Week
Food deals make a big difference, especially when you’re turning this into a full night out.
Dave & Buster’s offers $1 wings every Monday and Thursday. You do need to order at least 10, and it’s dine-in only, but it’s still a solid deal compared to typical wing prices. This is a limited-time deal, so check before you go.
This is an easy way to turn a game night into dinner and entertainment without paying full restaurant prices.
Military & First Responder Discount
Another great way to save is their 15% off food and drinks discount for military members and first responders.
This includes:
- Veterans
- Nurses
- Firefighters
- EMTs
- Police officers
- Doctors
Just bring a valid ID, and you’ll get a discount on your food and drinks, which can really add up if you’re going with family or a group.
Why It’s a Good Deal
Arcades can get expensive fast, but stacking these deals makes a big difference. With half-price games Sunday through Thursday, you’re essentially getting twice the play time for the same budget, which is huge—especially with kids.
Add in the $1 wings on Mondays and Thursdays, and you can turn it into a full night out without paying typical restaurant prices. Instead of spending money in multiple places, everything is bundled into one stop.
Then, if you qualify for the 15% off military or first responder discount, that’s even more savings on top of it all.
This is one of those outings where a little planning can easily cut your total cost in half, while still giving everyone a really fun experience.
A little planning goes a long way here, and it can turn what normally feels like a splurge into a much more budget-friendly outing.
Arcades for Indoor Fun
Visiting an arcade is a great indoor option this winter to keep the family busy or for some friendly competition.
