Dave & Buster’s has something for every member of your crew. Arcades are great for kids’ hangouts, family outings and date nights. Plus there’s a wide range of tasty food and extravagant cocktails to choose from. The one downside so far has been that Jersey families have had to make the trek to the Palisades Center in West Nyack, NY or Times Square to get a Dave & Buster’s fix.

Not anymore! The chain opened its first NJ location at the Woodbridge Center Mall on November 13. (Get ready for 34,000-square-feet of games.) While it was rumored last summer that the first NJ location would be at Wayne’s Willowbrook Mall, there are no signs of a brick and mortar location opening there anytime soon.

Before hitting the arcade, order some fresh pretzel dogs or a signature bar burgers and wings platter to share with your crew. If you and your partner are kid-free for the night, treat yourself to bacon-wrapped shrimp with lobster sauce and fire-grilled sirloin. And don’t miss out on one-of-a-kind Loco ‘Ritas, Smashtails and Glow Kones at the bar.

Once you get to the games, get a reloadable Power Card and tally up tickets so you can snag some swag before heading home.
