About

About Dave & Buster's

Dave & Buster's was founded in 1982 when two neighboring businesses — Dave's Place, a restaurant run by David Corriveau, and Buster's, a bar owned by James 'Buster' Corley — shared a wall in Little Rock, Arkansas. The two entrepreneurs eventually joined forces and opened the first official Dave & Buster's in Dallas, Texas, in 1982, pioneering the concept of combining a full-service restaurant with a large entertainment venue under one roof.

Today, Dave & Buster's operates more than 160 locations across the United States and Canada. Each location features a sprawling arcade and games floor called the Midway, home to hundreds of redemption games, simulators, and amusement attractions alongside sports-viewing bars with dozens of screens. The company also operates Main Event Entertainment, an acquired indoor family entertainment brand, expanding its footprint in the competitive family entertainment center market.

The food menu features American bar-casual fare — loaded nachos, craft flatbreads, half-rack ribs, fire-grilled proteins, and indulgent desserts like the signature Brookie Sundae Tower. Dave & Buster's is also known for its Happy Hour specials on cocktails and appetizers, making it a popular choice for after-work gatherings and group celebrations. Gift cards and the Power Card system — used to load credits for arcade games — make it a go-to destination for birthdays, corporate events, and date nights.
