Dave n Buster's is marketed as a family…
Dave n Buster's is marketed as a family friendly venue. Well, that wasn't my experience tonight. It was my father's birthday (he's in his 60s) and we'd booked the venue before it had opened. We brought a cake, we brought balloons and we'd hoped to share a good time as their advertising promised. None of that occurred. We were told by staff that some of the other staff members found our medicated children to be difficult (despite having no direct interaction with them). They said they were too loud. The irony? We couldn't communicate with staff over the noise of the venue. Essentially, we were indirectly asked to leave. We spoke to the manager who insisted the children were fine and that perhaps the staff were overwhelmed but it did little to change the situation. We had children in tears and a cake we were unable to share and eat.... so, it was taken home. My experience is that this venue is deeply discriminative. While I understand this is a teething process and a new venture for staff and the business- is discriminating against neurodivergent children (while medicated for these purposes) ok? Sad conversations were had this evening with my son (pictured here crying) why we had to leave. Thank you for a super crappy evening. I have pictures of my son crying if you feel this review isn't genuine.
