The Ottawa Pinball Arcade with over 30 classic pinball machines as well as a large selection of classic video arcade multi-game, meticulously maintained classic pinball machines from the 70’s to the 90’s, this is a time portal to the late 70’s Golden Era of the Arcade.
A time before cell phones and the internet, where they welcome gamers of all ages to experience the 70’s again, or for the first time, as did back in the day, playing games together in person in a room full of flashing lights, buzzers, bells, and the amazing electronic sounds and speech found only in the world of Pinball.
Featuring several multi-game classic video arcade machines with games like Pacman, Donkey Kong, Galaga, Space Invaders, and many more.
” Great place with a good selection of games. The Ottawa Pinball Arcade has both newer and classic pinball games with a mix of retro video game cabinets thrown in. The owner keeps all games in tip top condition and clearly takes pride in his establishment. Wednesday weekly pinball tournaments are a blast with great attendance! The adjacent Neighbourhood Pud features awesome deals and the staff are super friendly. Would recommend to all curious and seasoned pinball enthusiats ”
Hidden gem! I visited with my son and for an extremely reasonable price of 20$ total we played as much as we wanted for the afternoon. There were a few other people but you could pretty much play any machine you wanted. There is a big variety to choose from including a 2-player machine; you will definitely find some you like. The attached bar is friendly and quiet... This isn't a boozy place. I will also highlight the friendly gentleman that runs and fixes the arcade.... You can feel his genuine joy about this corner and his pride shows in how well kept and clean the area is. This is a safe, lovely, kids-friendly activity. The only watch out to mention is the parking lot which has a lot of large potholes so drive slowly and you'll be fine.
Awesome place for pinball. 25 machines or so. Cold beer, darts and pinball. Gotta love it! Wednesday and Sunday they have $15 for all you can play. I'm not sure about the hours for all you can play but it would be totally worth it. We will be back!!!
All the old school flashing lights and electronic sounds make for a great atmosphere. It's a fun time for kids and adults, especially on unlimited play Wednesdays or weekends. The tables are all very well maintained, and there is a good variety to choose from.
