Here’s my rankings of the places I’ve been:
1. Sunshine Laundry - Great atmosphere and the games are always in great shape. They also keep a high percentage of rare or LE games on site.
2. Pinball Gallery - Malvern, PA - Very large selection of games from all eras. 95% of the games are always working.
3. MOMs Organic Market - College Park, MD - Nice selection of games. Cool atmosphere since it’s hidden away in the back of a super market. Free coffee and tea at the customer service desk of the store.
4. Cidercade - Dallas, TX - Great barcade with interesting alcoholic cider choices. Nice selection of games with most in great shape. There’s usually one or two that have problems. Wide variety of other games.
5. Free Gold Watch - San Francisco, CA - Good selection with games in great shape.
6. Railroad Bar and Grill - Linfield, PA - Not a great game selection, but they’re always in great shape. The beer selection is great. Just a real comfortable place to hangout and have a beer or two.
7. Rock Fantasy - Middletown, NY - Good selection of games. Cool atmosphere.
8. Padavan’s - St. Charles, MO - Smallish game selection, but they have beer which makes up for a limited amount of games.
9. What’s Brewing - San Antonio - Good range of games from different eras. Good atmosphere with coffee shop feel makes it a comfortable place to hangout.
10. Morristown Game Vault - Morristown, NJ - Not great, but it’s close to work if I want to play after I finish up for the day.
