AREA 151... an arcade!

We leased the space next to Bumble to put in an old school redemption arcade called "AREA 151" and we are ALMOST ready to open the doors for business! Bumble is finally almost a year old and we've weathered the storm of the first 12 months in the restaurant business :) but we've found that people with older kids in town want to come eat at Bumble but they aren't so much into the sandbox or the Playroom. So an arcade next door seemed to be the answer! It has, of course, taken on a life of it's own and taken a few months longer than we thought to get our use permit from the city and collect the coolest used and new games from all over the country. Custom tickets, tokens and good prizes that don't end up on the floor of your car before you even get home are now on the shelves ready for customers. We have a few more items on the to do list inside and we hope to be open by the end of the month. But here are a few photos from our "test" parties to try out the machines and party space. It's a lot of fun for any age at Area 151!
