FAQ
Will you have food?
Maybe snacks at the most for now. You can bring your own food or have it delivered from another local place.
Is this a bar for pinball nerds only?
No. Everyone welcome. Even people who say "I'm not really a pinball person." You'll become one. We've seen it happen.
When are you going to open?
Shooting for 2027.
Is Lincoln's ghost invited?
Abe is always welcome. He drinks free. He's had a rough few centuries.
What does "The Outlane" mean?
It's the drain lane on a pinball machine where your ball goes to die. Very relatable. Very Springfield at 11pm on a Tuesday.
