This place is dope. Saw it online didn’t think much of it, but popped in as it was on our route. It’s very niche and cool, welli needs more spots like this. Not a rip of either just $2 a pop and games can last a decent while if you’re sweaty. Good place to kill time and the machines are very cool. If you’re rich you can buy them lol

Unexpectedly awesome! Found by coincidence and ended up staying far to long. Somehow this gem might be my highlight of Wellington! The owner seems to genuinely love what he does. He’s a top bloke who will accommodate and make your visit worth while. 10/10

Great selection of machines with impressive breadth of era (classics, to mega hits to latest releases like Dune). Staff are helpful, friendly and have the classic Kiwi talent of easy hospitality. All machines are incredibly well maintained.

Perfect place to kill a few hours! I lost track of time playing pinball here. The Addams Family and Ghostbusters machines were especially awesome. Great selection, fun atmosphere, and friendly staff. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a fun and nostalgic escape.

There is such a great feel at this place. Back to old fashioned fun with a touch of nostalgia, for all of us who miss simpler times. The venue would be a great option for a reunion of friends, or company work do. The host is excellent, helpful, knowledgeable and friendly. This is a valuable addition to Wellington’s entertainment scene.
