Parent summary

High Score Arcades has genuinely warm, knowledgeable staff who make families feel welcomed, and they offer dedicated SEN sessions with reduced numbers—this really does make a difference. The arcade environment is inherently stimulating with noise and sensory input from the machines, so it's worth thinking about whether that suits your child, though many families have found the staff support and the chance to enjoy preferred activities at their own pace outweighs this.

Best times to visit

SEN sessions offer quieter, reduced numbers and extended time on activities

Worth avoiding

Peak times, school holidays, and arcade birthday parties when numbers and noise levels are higher

What visitors say
