I searched for something like this in the forum, but couldn't find anything. If this is a redundant post, just point me to the correct thread and I'll shut this post down... With that said...
Pinball is becoming more popular and lots of cities now have multiple options for pinheads. I'm looking for your opinion on the BEST place to play pinball in your city/town. (the place must be open to the general public, not your buddy's house or your basement). Getting recommendations from pinheads rather than some random weirdos on yelp seems like a good idea.
Here's the general format and the first submission (include pictures of the location if possible):
City/Town & State: Colorado Springs, CO - USA
Name of Business: Manitou Springs Penny Arcade
Type of Business: Arcade (Separate Bar/Food is attached to building)
Est. # of Machines: 30-40 Pinball Machines plus 50-70 Arcade Machines
Why I love it: It's a massive arcade (3 different buildings) with lot's of options from EM and SS to modern Sterns. Lot's of retro arcade classics and skee-ball for those not into pinball or arcade. Tons of good restaurants, shops and bars in walking distance from the arcade. Located in an "old west" town, but just a few miles from Colorado Springs and a little over an hour away from Denver.
Issues: Most of the pinballs are maintained well, but a couple have some weak flippers or other small issues. Parking in Manitou Springs is mostly metered, so be prepared to spend a little bit on parking.
