The Coin Slot

I loved celebrating my birthday with friends here. It was a great environment for fun and drinks and the pizza was amazing!

Fun spot in Traverse with large selection of beer and pinball machines.

Fun bar with some great pinball machines.

Such a fun place!

I can see this being a popular bar at night time. However, compared to other arcade/bars I’ve been to, this place is just OK. Pros: GREAT beer selection, I mean fantastic! Attentive staff. Pinball has a large selection of themes. Neutral: pinball games are $1 each. That’s $1 for 3 balls. I give it a neutral because I’ve been to plenty of arcades that had $20 cover. And here I only played $10 worth of games. Which leads me to… Cons: not a wide selection of games. Most the pinball games you could tell were the same maker & new. So although the backgrounds & themes are different, they played the same. Don’t come here for old school 80s/90s arcade games. Only arcade game is Simpsons & only 1 of the 4 characters worked correctly. Did not try the pizza so can’t attest to the food.

Great spot for an after school slice and pinball games! Vegetarian options: Several vegetarian pizzas, lots of vegetarian beverages Parking: Usually easy to find a meter, or free parking by the courthouse 2 blocks away Kid-friendliness: Great for kids before 9pm Wheelchair accessibility: Ramp available
