   Carefree Amusements in Brean is a proper throwback. It's like stepping into a neon wonderland with arcade games galore. I had some fun, and it gave off those proper old school seaside arcade vibes. Felt like stepping back in time when all you needed was a pocket of change and a bit of luck. I was half expecting Stacey Solomon to come out of nowhere and start performing or for one of the customers to shout "Computer says no" at me, Little Britain style. On the flip side, it also felt a bit like I had walked into an EDL rally. Half the customers looked at me like they had never seen a brown person before. A few even looked surprised when I spoke fluent English. Sorry lads, no need for subtitles. One of the staff members was really full on and kept questioning me and my friend about random things. Like bro, chill, we are just here to play some games, not get interro. interrogated. Thankfully, the colleague behind the counter was much nicer and actually made us feel welcome. Overall, it's packed with fun games and has that traditional British seaside charm. Just be ready for a mix of neon lights, penny machines, and the occasional awkward stare. When I left I could visually feel my ears still hearing the song OH TOMMY TOMMY. The place wasn't bad, it was actually really fun to play games in, but I think the locals in Brean don’t like people from other communities. I even saw a couple of Confederate flags waving about and a Trump MAGA flag, which is hilarious considering we're in the UK.

   Amazing place for arcade fun when you are away. We come every year at the same time and we see the same people work there which is lovely !! A nice familiar place. There are plenty of games and 2p machines.

   It used to be fun and a good place to go and take the kids when you're short on money to play the 2p machines, but now all the staff seem to do is walk around putting the toys and things to win further back in the games when they get close to the edge, meaning you have to spend more and more just to try and win a key ring, people on a tight budget still only have so much they can afford to loose without anything for the little ones to win, give people a fighting chance to occasionally win something good or they will fail,

   Clean and tidy. Machines well stocked although Im not a fan of all the tickets. We won a little teddy and a keyring with £4 so not bad really.

   Very brilliant place value for money the man with the bald head is very fair he never gets old. He just loves kids. This is a place you must go to, we have being going for years and its the only arcade I know in the uk where you win even if you lose. Add the tickets up and get gifts at the end of your stay.
