If the kooky hilarity of Holey Moley Golf Club and eclectic brilliance of B. Lucky & Sons are just not enough fun to properly excite you, then Funlab’s newest kidadult entertainment wonderland, Archie Brothers Cirque Electriq will be the gamers’ (and foodies) paradise that officially delights you.
Opening mid-November in the newly re-vamped Toombul Shopping Centre, Archie Brothers Cirque Electriq Brisbane is a dazzling, mind-boggling circus-themed pleasure dome slash diner slash cocktail joint, jam-packed full of kidult fun! With arcade games galore including Mario Kart and Willy Wonka, theme park adventures like Dodgems and Coney Island, trippy virtual reality experiences, bowling and ThrillRide, one of Australia’s best interactive XD motion theatres, there are literally enough bells and whistles to keep you occupied for days (and nights). The games are more than just a barrel of fun, punters can also win tickets arcade-style and trade them in for unique and zany prizes including pop vinyls, gaming consoles, and 90’s retro paraphernalia.
The Archie Brothers interiors are a feast for the senses. Upon entering through red velvet drapes, the scent of popcorn and fairy floss fill the air, punters look out to a sea of colourful flashing arcade game signs, to the soundtrack of DJ-spun tunes. The tricked-up cocktail bar built to resemble a vintage carousel is a focal point of the room. Booth seating is modelled around classic theme park rides like the Cha Cha and Tea-Cup Ride. The diner menu fuses Sideshow Alley with an American Diner to create the Archie Brothers Dazzler’s Diner menu. Think five kinds of burgers, hotdogs, giant pretzels, loaded shakes, much more delicious food.
One of the stars of the show include Candy Stand, a strawberry shake with vanilla-frosted decorative rim, a giant lollipop, candy kebab, whipped cream and sprinkles (add Pampero White Rum & Frangelico to make it 18+). The official launch date of Archie Brothers Cirque Electriq, Brisbane will be announced soon.
