Flipper Hütte: The Literal Pinball Bar

March 23, 2018 By ausretrogamer

Ever wondered what a pinball bar would look like if it was made entirely of discarded pinball machines and their respective playfields?

Welcome to the Flipper Hütte, a German bar where you could enjoy a drink and try your luck at picking the pinball machines that make up its walls and ceiling!

Described in a German magazine as the “freaky garden house”, we can thank Ralph Jourdan for sharing his photos of this most unique bar situated in the Federal State of Hesse. The only thing missing is actual playable pinball machines!

Melbourne’s Pinball Paradise

December 12, 2016 By ausretrogamer

So why is Melbourne the most liveable city? Well, one good reason is that we have our very own dedicated pinball and whisky bar, aptly named, Pinball Paradise. Perhaps when Guns N’ Roses sang about Paradise City, they meant this place!

Set in the north-west part of Melbourne’s Central Business District and across the road from the Queen Victoria Market, Pinball Paradise is a pinball wizard’s dream come true – fifteen pinball machines covering multiple eras and a bar stocked with alcohol to quench your hard earned thirst. There is definitely no better place to meet with friends, have a drink and get flippin’!

The lowdown:
What: Pinball Paradise
Where: 1st Floor, 213 Franklin Street, Melbourne, Australia
Opening Hours: Wednesday to Sunday, 4:00pm to LATE
Pinball Competitions: monthly Melbourne Silverball League

Our only problem, what to play first?

We started with some old school pinball

And then we ended up on Jersey Jack Pinball’s Wizard Of Oz, 75th Anniversary Edition

Check out Martin Robbins’ ‘Grand Opening’ vid to get a feel of Pinball Paradise, oh and its secret entry!
