I stopped by Lanes & Games today. What a great place, and the games are in almost HUO condition. An added plus was that Whoa Nellie was being set up as I walked in. I was able to get one of the first games on it.

Now that Lanes & Games is closed, where are the best places to play in Boston? Traveling there next week.

Flat top Johnny's and Roxys A4cade are your go-to joints. About a 15 minute walk between the two.

Definitely agree. Always awesome games there. Mostly new Stern's.

Providence RI has shelter arcade bar with a variety of 90s and newer games. Haven't been there in a year but when I went, every pin was set on Freeplay.

Pin alert.
Last night I noticed Kings Bowling in Dedham, MA now has three pins (Stern Star Wars, Wrestlemania, Guardians of the Galaxy) all in good condition. Along with other retro arcade games, air hockey and bubble hockey. Add that to the bowling, bar and decent food and it makes for a good time.
