  Our first time at the Barboursville location was an absolute unacceptable experience. We were there for a grandsons BD, stood at the host stand for quite sometime before getting seated. After being seated a 20 something male tossed straws on the table as if he was irritated to be there. We ordered water, explained we were waiting in 4 more possibly 6 more and would be eating. He returned with 3 glasses of water, we said thank you and he turned with the most vile hate-filled look imaginable- never spoke just walked away. We promptly got up and went to the game area to wait for our other family members - gave the kids cards for play and left. Our other family members are elsewhere after playing. We are very polite, neat people with a guaranteed excellent tip-the young black male we encountered lost an opportunity and good money. We might be "old white" people as we have been labeled by similar types-but we are honest hardworking well paying people. We are tired of encountering resentful, angry, and unpleasant staff; these people are hurting themselves and the businesses they work for. Warning: we our based digital cards, they did not work on any game and had to get hard cards to use! Very disappointing since we, the grandparents, like to play with our grandsons on a regular basis at these types of places - we will stick with Chuckie cheese and other similar places where we get treated with respect. We will not return for food ever, not sure if we will waste our time at D&B in the future. Noted many games did not work and had not worked in a long time, digital cards do not work, lots of exclusions and rules to keep up with, very pricey for the games, no one cleaning anything. Dirty food tables and dirty gaming area-watched kids picking their noses and playing the games (nearly gagged). Wipes and sanitizer needs put out for use!!! Very crowded place with kids running around like it's a play ground.

  Absolutely terrible service, got no refills, waitress only brought us one round of drinks and we never saw her again until she came for us to pay, someone else brought our food.

  Dave & Buster’s was an absolute hit for our crew of 3 preteen/teen girls and 5 adults. First, the food. I’ll admit, I went in with “arcade food expectations” and left genuinely impressed. Everything looked exactly like the pictures (a rare thing), and it tasted great. Delicious, well-presented, and way above what I expected. The games were another win. There was a huge variety, from cool augmented reality video games to classic county-fair-style favorites like Skee-Ball, plus tons of other games that kept both kids and adults happily occupied. No one was bored, no one wanted to leave early, and that alone deserves applause. As for prices, they felt fair, maybe a tiny bit high considering the local economy. Good service was very very slow, but polite. Overall, this was a fun, energetic, and surprisingly tasty outing. If you’re looking for a place where kids can be kids, adults can have fun too, and everyone leaves smiling (and possibly overly competitive), Dave & Buster’s in Huntington absolutely delivers. Would 100% go again - stretchy pants and layers for physical activity recommended. 🎮🍔🎉

  Didn't eat here but the atmosphere was great and associates were very nice but the cost to play vs the options of things to purchase with your tickets is ridiculous.
