Where did Dave and BUSters start?

Dave & Buster’s was founded in 1982 by David Corriveau and James “Buster” Corley.  The first location opened in Little Rock, Arkansas, and was an instant success.

The concept, which combined a restaurant and bar with a large selection of arcade games, had previously not existed in the market, and it quickly gained popularity among adults looking for a place to have fun and play games.

Since its inception, Dave & Buster’s has expanded rapidly, and today operates over 151 locations throughout the United States and Canada.

The company has become a popular destination for casual dining and entertainment, as well as for corporate events and parties.

While the first Dave & Buster’s location was in Little Rock, the company has since opened locations in major cities across the United States and Canada, including New York, Los Angeles, Toronto, and many others.

The company’s growth and success have made it a household name and a go-to destination for fun and entertainment.
