    There are another 8-10 pins and 20-25 arcade games down there. The part that kinda sucks is we only have that open, Thursday through Saturday so depending on when you come it may not be open.

    Wow I didn't realize this thread was still going. Thank you for all the kind words everyone. If anyone has any complaints or suggestions please let me know. I am all ears. We will try to continue to swap games in and out to keep things fresh. We have been pretty busy with Nashville and we have found location for the lakeview relocation. We are hoping to have the second Chicago location reopened this fall.

    Quoted from Al:

    While I agree with everyone that the place is nice overall, I can't hear the pin I am playing cause the music is too loud. Also, usually about half the pins upstairs have some type of issue which are noticeable enough to make the game no fun due to features not working right. I have been there a few times last couple years and the situation I describe was the case every time I went. Unfortunate because the games are always clean but I'd guess the free play angle takes a toll on them. Oh and parking can be challenging around there.
    That's just my take on the place, your mileage may vary.

    Sorry to hear about your experience with the games. If you ever notice a game isn't working properly please let a staff member know. Chances are a tech will open the game up right then and take care of the issue. As for the music, I agree. Its tough to play and enjoy pins when you can't necessarily hear them. Friday and Saturday the music gets turned up and even Thursdays at times. The reality is that although we have a lot of pin players, the majority of our customer base isn't there to play the pins on a Friday-Saturday night. During the day or other week nights I think you will find the music is at a more tolerable level. Thanks for the heads up on the pins and again please let a staff member know if you don't mind when your in any of the issues you find.
