South Australia Pinball and Arcade

Just spent the most enjoyable afternoon at the South Australian Pinball Arcade. It felt just like an arcade from my youth. The selection of games was great and they were in tip-top operational condition. It's nice to have machines that play as they should. The place was very clean and well laid out. My favourites were the 1970's Gottlieb pinball machines. From looking at other photos, the machines that they can select from to put on display is huge, so a suspect that reasonably regular revisits will always result in something new.

I would just like to thank you all so much, this is the second time we have been here for my sons birthday, we absolutely enjoyed it, thanks again

Just got back from a 3 hour session with the kids. Had an awesome time, machines worked perfectly. Thoroughly recommend on open session, Kids were 5 and 7, they had a blast. If you are bringing younger kids maybe bring a step stool to play the pinnies. After 3 hours now have sore thumbs

First time down here, came for their Saturday free play session.admission was quite good for 3 hours of play.great to see some old classics as well as a few examples of the newer stuff.friendly staff who were happy to show us the best targets to aim for and offer some advice on the best way to hit them bonus rounds.
I'll definitely be back for another cracking at some high scores!
cheers guys.

Private Hired the venue for a 16th party. Everyone loved it and the teenagers were well entertained. Awesome

Will definitely be heading back, Rusty went above and beyond with customer service and the machines all played great.

Awesome place to visit great selection of games and pinballs very clean venue family friendly

Love this place for a Saturday night of fun games. The guys are nice & very helpful with their knowledge of the games.
Take the kids out for a good experience & play some pinball machines from the old eras to the newer ones. $15 for a couple hours of unlimited play, so worth it

Decided to go here with a mate. He was constantly going on about how good this place was. Don't understand why this is a five star place. I personally think this place is super duper overrated! While there was a decent variety of Games, i personally felt that there was pinball machines then Arcade games to be honest. I could be wrong however.

Majority of the arcade machines where in such TERRIBLE condition! Screens where either off center, had some weird pink or green haze or worse, a screen covered in oils and grease! And dont even get me started on the controls! Most of the Joysticks where loose, or had Gunk and oils and god knows what else! Same thing for the buttons! Had to wash my hands while i was there at least four or five times!

Customer service, if you could call it that was non existent! Only time i came across the staff was at the door. Didn't even get a word of Hello or Welcome!

Overall, this place has a awesome idea, thats poorly executed! I really really wanted to like this place, but due to all the problems i have stated above, i have never EVER been sooo disappointed going to an arcade! Absolute waste of money. I will not be coming back here at all, let alone recommend it!

Took my 12 year old son and his friend along. They are now pinball converts. Excellent venue, great 80's music and paraphernalia. Plenty of variety to choose from and all machines are in excellent restored condition. Clean and friendly environment with enthusiasm galore from the owners. Support these guys, they deserve it. If i
sound like I am gushing, it is because we had just SO much fun in a 4 hour session.

Don't be put off by the venue being in an industrial estate, makes for easy access and parking.

South Australia Pinball and Arcade is a fantastic place for a Party or just to experience and play old school Arcade games. Friendly staff and clean premises great for all ages. Had an awesome time
