Happy Claw Arcade — Attraction in Turlock

In my honest opinion, this place is great for a quick fun passing time while waiting for a pizza feel. It's smaller than we thought but that's okay. My boys did enjoy it, however the plushies are not really worth the payout. They are very cheaply made and for how many tries it takes to win one with the rapid jerking of the claw, (average $8 to $12 a plush) I don't see it worth the amount we spent. We spent $125, we originally only wanted to spend 100 but because they had issues with the card machine I had to go to the nearest atm and left my husband with our boys there, you know how hard it is to tell toddlers you have to wait until mommy gets back, so my husband spent 25 while waiting and won 1 plush. There is an option to trade your smaller prizes for a larger plush but to get one size up you have to trade like 10 plushies for one large. Which averages around $50 to $70. We went through 130 tokens in 20 minutes. I'm sorry but for the cost, prize worth and quickness of play I rather go to Dave N Busters. Thank you for the quick fun time there, buy I don't think we...

This place just opened recently so I decided to go out with my family. It's such a well decorated establishment, and was tons of fun! You can either play one of their many claw machines for 1 token or get a guaranteed small prize at their Gachapons for 4 tokens. The family runs it personally and it's so nice to see, their children even help and are so attentive to the customers' needs! Besides the claw machines and gachapons, they also sell a small variety of Japanese snacks and sweets in the store for a decent price that I'd recommend, and they have a prize upgrading system should you win enough claw prizes but want a bigger plushie. One thing to note if you do visit is that these are Japanese Style Crane Machines, which need to be pressed once to drop the claw, and another to actually close it, definitely had some of my family lose a token or two because of that misunderstanding. But other than that I'd highly recommend the place and wish them great future success...

Happy Claw is exactly what Turlock needs more of: family-friendly, fun, sober, safe entertainment close to home!

We hosted my daughter's birthday party here in February, and it was a wonderful experience. The party room comfortably fit about 25 guests, and the time allotment allowed us to easily get through food, cake, and presents with plenty of time to socialize and play. We were able to arrive early to decorate, and tables were already set up upon arrival. Domino's Pizza delivered directly to the venue, saving us the hastle of picking up food beforehand.

The kids had a blast in the arcade, as did the adults! Our package came with 300 tokens, but we wish we had gone with the larger package that included more since we ended up paying out of pocket for extra anyway. The owners were kind and accommodating - you can tell they genuinely care about their customers and love what they do. Give them a shot- even if you dont have kids! This would be a fun date night...
