Fun Depot

Fun Depot has been the family entertainment anchor of Lake Worth Beach since 1988, when the current owner’s father opened the place and built it into the go to spot for birthday parties, date nights, and rainy weekend afternoons across northern Palm Beach County. Nearly four decades later, the business is still run by the same family, tucked along 10th Ave N in the western part of the city, and it has grown well past a simple arcade into a multi activity complex that covers most of what a family entertainment center can reasonably offer under one roof.

The go kart track requires riders to be at least 54 inches tall and runs races priced individually or in packs of five, and Laser Force, the facility’s laser tag arena, follows the same pricing structure in a black lit, fog filled space built for group play rather than a quick solo round. The arcade floor uses a Fun Pass card system that rewards larger reloads with bonus credit, so a 25 dollar load returns 28 dollars in play value, scaling up to a 300 dollar load that returns 390 dollars in credit for families who visit often enough to make the higher tiers worthwhile.

A more recent renovation added Cordial Alley, a 20 lane bowling operation with VIP seating options, along with Cordial, a full service restaurant and cocktail bar that lets adults order a real meal and a drink instead of settling for arcade snack bar food while the kids run through their Fun Pass credit. That combination, bowling, arcade, go karts, laser tag, and a proper kitchen and bar, under one Lake Worth Beach roof is not something most families need to leave the city to find.

Fun Depot stays open seven days a week, with hours running from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. on most weekdays, extending to midnight on Friday and Saturday, and opening earlier at 10 a.m. on weekends. Tuesday and Thursday evenings bring a Family Fun Night deal, offering unlimited arcade play for 30 dollars, or 40 dollars with laser tag and go kart rides added in, a schedule built around getting local families in the door on nights that would otherwise be slow.

The venue also handles private party packages with customizable VIP options, which is where a lot of its business comes from outside of daily walk in traffic, since birthday parties and group events tend to book out the party rooms well ahead of weekends. For anyone in Lake Worth Beach looking for an actual afternoon or evening of activity rather than another chain restaurant or a national arcade brand, Fun Depot remains a locally owned option with a longer track record in the community than most of the competition.
