Like others out there I am nostalgic for a simpler time when all I needed was a big slice of pepperoni pizza and an extra refill at Sabaros to get me pumped for the arcade around the corner at the mall. So what food gets you in the mood to play?
My childhood mall's Aladdin's Castle was next to Cinnabon. Nowadays I like the sushi special at Level 257.

...googled chocolate pinball and this popped up lol
PIZZA! When I was 14 in 1974 I would walk to a pizzeria a 1/4 mile from my house and get 2 slices and soda for a buck. Only game was a Gottlieb Flying Carpet. I'd dump my money earned from cutting lawns into it. Got really good at that game and after awhile a quarter could reap up to a dozen free games. Ended up buying one in 2001.
If I’m about to have a pinball sesh, I rarely eat. I’ve skipped an entire day’s worth of meals for pinball before. Haha.
As long as the beer’s flowing, I’m good.

I agree. Pinball HELPS me diet. Keeping busy in the gameroom keeps me out of the fridge!

You ain’t kidding. However, I’ve been known to destroy the fridge and pantry after a long pinball day and like 100 beers. Haha

Beer is a food! lol 
My local pizza place got me back into Pinball by having an EM in their pub area. Since then they ditched the EM for a golden tee. And since then the local places with games are all places that make/serve beer, so yeah... beer.
Quoted from Elevatorman:Pork shoulder smoked for 18 hours so it's ready for all the guests for the pinball party. ..mmmmm good stuff!
Oh that's just cruel. lol
