    I will be traveling with my son in November to the University of Maryland Baltimore County for a official visit. I will be staying near the BWI airport while he is visiting Friday through Sunday.
    Anyone know of any places to play some pinball and drink some beers in that area??

    Crabtowne is awesome! Especially to eat some bar food (or a bunch of crab!) and drink some delicious beer! Also check out the Pin Map for other options. Also Holy Frijoles.

    Thanks for the Mexican restaurant tip, Holy Frijoles. Will definitely stop by there

    Do not fail to visit Mom's organic market in college Park. They are up to 38 pins.

    Holy Frijoles is awesome and would be my first choice of the places I've been in the Baltimore area.
    I go to Baltimore a couple times a year for business and go here at least once per trip.
    The food is awesome as are the drinks.
    Really friggin good margaritas etc.
    The pin selection there is excellent.

    Crab Towne is cool as well, been there a half dozen times or so.
    My understanding is that place has been a functioning arcade since the 80s.
    The games do get a lot of play and are more likely to have issues, but its definitely worth checking out.
