  • Our Starcourt Mall Cake is a bright yellow cake decorated in bold 80’s colors—teals, pinks, and electric blues—with retro piping and mall-inspired flair that feels straight out of a summer at Starcourt. The Upside Down Cake is a rich red velvet creation wrapped in dramatic black frosting and textured red vines, giving it that perfectly eerie, Hawkins-after-dark vibe. And for something sweet and nostalgic, our Butter & Honey Cake is light, moist, and topped with a drizzle of honey and mini waffles for a warm, comfort-food twist that feels like Eleven might approve after saving the world.

  • Add a Dungeons & Dragons mini-adventure to your birthday party at Hawkins Headquarters and let your guests become heroes for the day! Our Dungeon Master will guide the group through a fast-paced, beginner-friendly quest filled with monsters, magic, and 80s-style fun. No experience needed — just imagination, teamwork, and a sense of adventure
