Pins Mechanical Co.

To celebrate my birthday, I was brought here by my family. I had not heard of or been here prior. This venue was chosen as it allowed young children to participate. I must say that it was super fun. There were numerous video games, arcade games, and pinball machines. Many of them were free to use. Pinball was 1.00$ per game. There was also skee ball and ring toss. The lower level contained the pin bowling. I had not seen or heard of this prior. It’s just lie bowling with smaller balls and pins that are set into place via strings, meaning that when you knock over the pins, the pins are hoisted up and the un-hit pins are reset. Hit pins remain elevated. Spares and strikes are counted the same a regular bowling (2 tries) except that you are given a third opportunity to take down the remaining pins. Scoring is kept for you. There are 10 frames ( rounds) per game. It certainly kept us entertained. We waited about 40 minutes for a lane to clear after our arrival. In the 40 minutes, we wandered here and there playing the arcade games. There are several bars available. No outside food or drink is allowed although not too sure if that is monitored. It as a very busy venue but comfortable at mid afternoon. I speculate it would be very crowded in the eve. I was impressed. It appears to be an Ohio thing, but a few cities outside Ohio also are in operation. A fun way to spend quality time with family and friends. Because the balls are small, it works great for kiddo’s.

A free arcade is one thing. But a free arcade with absolutely incredible bartenders/hosts is another. We’re visiting Cleveland from California and we’re blown away at the awesome bar service received from Lorenzo and Show(hopefully I spelled that right) they represented this establishment in the best way possible. Friendly, helpful, had great recommendations, and most importantly, Good people. The arcade was awesome, my kids loved it, the drinks were great, we will definitely be returning whenever we visit. Thank you Lorenzo, show and Pin mechanical! We definitely felt welcomed.

You kidding me?! I frick'n love this heck'n place. Service is top notch. That Nick guy is an absolute angel of a man. With that said, the rest of the staff are all just the coolest as well. I love getting drunk and playing games. Who doesn't like that?! They even have sports on the TVs for the sports dorks. That's a neat thing! I kinda wish pinball was Freeplay. But hey, I understand. Gotta get that bread. Keep it up, ponyboys.

Fun for all ages. Good drinks, prices are average, everything was clean and working properly, staff was friendly and welcoming.

The place is great but I paid 27 dollars for a shot and a beer. I know things are more expensive these days but… cmon man… almost 15 a pop for a shot and a beer? I didn’t even tip the bartender because it was so expensive and I can’t be the only one feeling that way.
