Same three machines that have been here since electricity was available. While all three will gladly take your quarters and launch a ball, it's a stretch to call South Park and Starship Troopers playable. South Park needs a eulogy. About 90% of the lights are out, which makes it a tad difficult to tell where you are on different goals. Don't shoot the ball up the middle ramp unless you have several minutes to wait for it to reset. Starship Troopers might be enjoyable if only the right flipper worked. Flippers are somewhat important for play. LOTR had a few lights out and the plunger was so worn out skill shots weren't an option, but overall played well. It was tempting though to ask the owners though "if you'll open it, I'll at least dust if for you."
The pins are right inside the front door so it isn't even necessary to do the dining experience. However, the burgers here are good - better than the pins.
The Bulldog
The Bulldog is a bar that serves over 60 different beers. They serve food and are open for lunch. They have a game room with several arcades, an air hockey table, and various other machines as well as the three pinball machines.
Nov 12, 2016 -- Lord of the Rings and Starship Troopers up and running and playing nicely. South Park was running but more features broken than working.
Feb 12, 2016 -- Sadly, only South Park was even playable. The other 2 would not even boot, and it appears they've had these same 3 machines for 2+ years. Visit The Bulldog for the bar, the food, and the feel. The pins are sad.
Oct 12, 2019 - Lord of the Rings, Starship Troopers and South Park still on location. LOTR has no rubber on the left flipper and the tip of the left flipper is broken off. Starship Troopers also has no rubber on the left flipper. All 3 machines look like dirt on everything on the playfields has never been touched since they were placed there. I put no money in any machine as I did not want to waste it.
Sept 25, 2023 - Same games, same disaster. Left Flipper on LOTR still broken in half with part on pf. Starship Troopers was off and filthy. South Park was on, but half of the score display is dead. Genco Amusements is the "operator". It's a pinball tragedy.

Only working machine at this location, but right flipper drags on play field and is useless.
SS Sega, 1997
Still broken; paper on the glass that says,”Broken,” looks to have quite a bit of age on it.

Cool place. Really liked the feel, the food, and the service. But their arcade area still has those same 3 pins since forever!! South Park is the only one that would even boot up. Playable. But the Starship Troopers and LOTR are just dead and sad. :-( February 12, 2016.
