Good times, good fun, good people. Go check it out

🏆 Family Action Verdict

Best for families with children aged 8 and up who have an interest in games and mechanical novelty. The free-play model removes any pressure to rush between machines. Younger children can play with close adult supervision, as machines require coordination and reading ability.

ℹ️ What to Know Before You Go

💡The venue is on the second floor — account for stairs when visiting with strollers or mobility needs.
Check the events calendar before visiting; tournament days draw competitive crowds and can feel different from casual sessions.
🎟️Weekday Friday afternoons tend to be the quietest open session of the week.
🚗Membership is available for frequent visitors and supports the collective's restoration mission.

As someone who frequents tournaments here, this place rocks. Plenty of seating so you don't have to stand around and wait for a game, easy to find games, hosts awesome tournaments, the people that work there are the coolest, and every time I come back they have a new game, and the few times they haven't they did some special work to make the atmosphere, museum, or something about the place better. Highly recommend going to the tournaments and just the place in general. Special shout-out to Phillip, if you see this thank you so so much for running the tournaments and making the place awesome, along with everyone involved.

Great place to play pinball and hang out with friendly people! Simple play-all-day entry-fee price for a large collection of machines that are well-maintained.
