    Went here Friday with my out of town sister at about 11:00am while getting a cup of coffee across the street.. Just wanted to stick our head in to see what this place was about. The owner was a very kind lady who let us walk thru & look before considering paying. What a definite cool gem! I'm not a 'pinball wizard', but this place had new & vintage games, all free play after paying to get in. Not just awesome pinball machines! Galaga, Donkey Kong, PacMan, Space invaders, shooting games, skeetball, etc from the 80's that are original arcade machines. What a cool find to hang out! We paid, stayed, & played for hours! The pinball machines are just awesome..old & new! I loved the new & hard to find Rush pinball game, (total Rush nerd here) but also the grandaddy Adams Family & KISS games were just total revisits to days gone by as well. WELL worth your entry fee, & owners were a very nice couple. Get there early if you want to have the run of the place like we did.. We will be taking friends here again soon! 2 thumbs up!

    Visited on Grand Opening. Way KOOL place. A flashback in time to the 1970's. Flat fee to play all machines as many times as you like. I played 36 Pinball machines (didn't get to them all); from vintage to modern (Pinball with video interaction). Plan to spend some time here if you want to play all. Cold beverages for a fee. Unisex restroom. Fun for one or more. Family friendly. Meter parking on street. Worth the visit.

    Awesome! I’ve rented it out twice for private parties of 4-6 people. Babies, toddlers, elementary kids, and adults LOVED it! Skeeball was my favorite. We brought food but didn’t want to stop playing to eat. So fun!

    We went here for a family night and boy did we enjoy it! It was really enjoyable to see our adult kids playing games they never have before. We had the whole place to ourselves for an hour and it really wasn't that expensive. All the machines were perfectly maintained and the staff were super friendly. We will be back and we tell everyone about this little known treasure.

    This place is hands down the best pinball place in Washington. Each machine is immaculate. The staff are friendly. The price of admission is incredible. I hope this place never goes away.

    Fantastic place to spend some time and play pinball. All of the machines are in great condition and the owner is awesome. Seems like the newest pins are always there and they have some classics that are a ton of fun.

    What a lovely space to play pinball in... And the co-owner is such a lovely person. When I am back in Oly, I want to come back... Husband wants to visit badly... His turn in October. Very responsive to needs... I really enjoy this venue.

    Hands down the nicest spot in Oly. Worth the drive. Family owned and you can see and feel it. Some of the best examples of pinball in the state. PERFECT playing tables!

    This place is awesome! Can play pinball machines up to 4 players at a time! All included in cost of admission. Only bad part only open Saturday and Sunday!

    I was blown away by this place. I've been to pinball museums in Seattle and Asheville and this was my favorite by far. A great mix of games I already know and love and new ones I got to discover. The staff was welcoming, the games were all in great condition, and it wasn't too crowded. I only wish they served beer and were open longer! They do allow you to leave and come back if you want to get a hand stamp. I'll be back (oh, they have a T2 machine that plays really well too!)

    Huge selection of well-maintained pinball machines ranging from the cutting-edge to the old school. Many machines are of the premium variety, offering more mechanics and features than you may see elsewhere. Machines are all on free play, which is great for beginners- no "wasting" all your quarters learning how to play. Owners are pleasant to talk to and have an additional 50 machines that they swap out regularly. There is a good selection of classic arcade machines as well if you need a break from pinball. If you have an even a passing interest in pinball or are looking for a good way to spend an afternoon you owe it to yourself to spend a few hours here.

    We made our first visit today to celebrate our grandson's birthday. What a blast! We had the place to ourselves for two hours. Now we all want to go back again. The owner and staff were very friendly and helpful. All of the machines are in great shape. If you like pinball you need to put this place on your must-do list.

    This place is a lot of fun! Grab a bite across the street, then spend a few hours on some classic arcade fun. The entry price might look steep, but it evens out pretty quickly with all the machines being set up for free play. The machines are all in really good shape and the place is nice and clean. I saw staff frequently wiping down machines. My only suggestion for improvement would be to have a hand sanitizer station easily accessible, especially since candy and such is sold there.

πŸ‘πŸ‘ It was full of information from the war of 1812 all the way up to current times with the US military and the lady at the front desk was so sweet. Lot's of vehicles restored and firearms in great condition.
