The Coachella Valley has some of the hottest attractions including the Acrisure Arena, Palm Springs Power, and Fantasy Springs Casino. A new addition to the family friend entertainment aspect of the valley comes Dave & Buster’s.
Why Rancho Mirage?
The new Dave & Buster’s which will be located at The River Rancho Mirage is set to open on Sept. 18 at 11 a.m. Ryan Easterday, the general manager says, “We saw The River’s was popular in the area, so why not bring Dave & Buster’s to the valley and bring it back from the dead?” The new arcade, sports bar and restaurant is relatively close to the College of the Desert campus where students can go watch sports, play arcade games and have fun.
How is the word getting out?
Dave & Buster’s took a unique approach to get the community involved between Sept. 5 to 9, hiding five blue and orange flags throughout Rancho Mirage, with five lucky winners discovering them. When finding these flags, winners were invited to an exclusive VIP party on Sept. 14 for a first look and received a $100 Dave & Buster’s gift card.
What makes this restaurant unique?
Dave & Buster’s is introducing a massive 22,000 sq. ft. screen TV with an immersive sound system, creating a “court-side” experience. Some of the featured food choices on the menu include are All-American Cheeseburger, Philly cheesesteak sandwich, crispy cobb salad, and all-you-can-eat wings starting at $22.99 on Mondays and Thursdays after 4 p.m, during game time and dinner time. Games typically range on a game card from 4 to 9 chips, costing between $10 and $100. A few featured games include Halo Fireteam Raven, Fruit Ninja FX 2, Pac-Man, Minecraft, etc. Dave & Buster’s first major watch party will be for the boxing match between Canelo Alvarez (59-2-2, 39 KOs) and Jermell Charlo (32-0, 22 KOs) on Saturday, Sept. 30 at 5 p.m. Other sports premiered include football, basketball, baseball and many more.
