A representative for Dave and Buster’s did not immediately return a request for details about what the new location will include. It is not yet listed on the “coming soon” locations in the chain’s website.

It would be the first location for the Dave and Buster’s in Brooklyn and the third in New York City, according to the website. Dave and Buster’s, which is famous for its arcade area and cheap eats, has a location in Times Square and on Staten Island.
