Dave & Buster’s was founded in 1982 in Dallas, Texas, by David Corriveau and James “Buster” Corley, combining a full-service restaurant and bar with an expansive arcade and entertainment area. The brand pioneered the “eatertainment” concept, attracting adults and families looking for food, drinks, and games in a single destination. Since going public in 2014, Dave & Buster’s Entertainment, Inc. has expanded nationwide and also acquired the Main Event brand in 2022 to broaden its entertainment footprint
