Known about for a while, but finally convinced the wife to go. Awesome place! Little smaller than I expected, but lots of cool, fun games. Cool staff, and they keep it clean 10/10 will be back!!!

Plenty of choices. Pinball and arcade, air hockey. Your old favorites are likely there, buried in a sub-menu that takes a bit to find your game. If you ever played a game-boy cartridge loaded with 200 games you know what Im talking about. If you cant find, ask at the desk. A simpler system of finding games would be nice. Alcohol and drinks served. 10-25$, pay by the hour or all day.

This place is awesome!!! Pinball is a must visit place with over 150 immaculate pinball machines and 30 or so old school arcade games. They also have an indoor bounce area. All you can play for $10 a hour or $25 unlimited. They also have beer and wine.

Our family visited here while on vacation, which includes 8 and 10 yr old kids, and had a fantastic time. This is our kids first time playing pinball and they had so many options that both found plenty of games that piqued their interest. Not only do they have pinball, but other arcade games from past and present. Being their brought back memories from my own childhood. The prices are more than fair and I wish that we had allotted more time to play here as we came before dinner. This place is awesome and would love to have one closer to home.

Great spot! We drove here from Statesboro and it was all I had hoped for and more. The bounce room is large and great for kids, and boy are there a ton of pins! Lots of older arcades and many multicades as well. Its all free to play and you pay by hour or for the day, which is what we did. Hope to come again a bunch!

Simply put, this place is amazing. I came specifically for the pinball, and pinball palace did not disappoint. They had a huge selection of well-cared-for pins both old and new, most with accompanying toppers and many with all the cool mods installed. They kept the volume at a reasonable level on the machines, which was hugely refreshing coming from arcades that keep the volume so low you can barely hear the game. We came on a Sunday so they werent serving beer or wine, but you could walk right on over to 5 de mayo next to it for some margaritas before hopping back on to some pins. Had an absolute blast here and Ill definitely be back.

If I could do more than 5 stars I CERTAINLY would. This is the COOLEST arcade Ive ever been to, even if about 88% of the games there were just pinball machines. Sarah was awesome and the decor was beyond perfect.

This place is a Pinball Paradise! They have like 6 rooms or more of pinball machines. They have some arcade games as well. They even had a play area for smaller kids. Really nice. I didnt count the total number of machines but im sure there were over 200. The machines date way back up to the newer ones from the last few years. FYI They have some limited additions and hard to find machines which is awesome to say you played on them. If you enjoy a classic arcade or game room style environment thats definitely the place to go spend a few hours or more. Definitely recommend checking it out!

This place is a hidden gem. Great for all ages. Very safe, clean, and absolutely amazing. Staff was wonderful and rates were great. 1 hour went by too fast and could of spent many hours here. Took us back to the old arcade days of our youth. Good to beat the heat, rainy day fun, anytime, or for parties. WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR...STOP READING THIS AND GO NOW!!!

OMG status. This place is a haven. As soon as we pulled up I knew we had found a special place. I walked in and was blown away by how calm, cool and collected the interior was. The attention to detail shines through with beautiful games preserved in PERFECT detail. The owner was so proud of his establishment I felt I could stay for days. I found this incredible gaming oasis by picking up a flyer in a local motel. I would highly recommend this place for families and anyone looking for a good time!!!!

Great place for our whole family. Really enjoyed learning about different types of games while playing them. (There are cards on the games with facts about that game). Nostalgia playing a few of the games and loved watching our kids play those same games as well.

This place is awesome! About 100 pinball machines in excellent condition. Vintage video games, a kids play area with multiple bouncy castles, air hockey, fuseball, bubble hockey... you get the idea. Check out the website for good information. Reached capacity while we were there, so there was a short wait to get in. Snacks are for sale. Was very clean. Highly recommend.

This is one of the coolest places. There are so many pinball machines, as well as arcade games and table games like foosball and bubble hockey. The owner is super nice and passionate about this hobby and I dont blame him, hes got an awesome set up. I was only able to do an hour and I could easily have spent another hour in there. If I was a local Id be asking about a year pass because this place is that good!

Review №58

What a cool find! I had an absolute blast in the place and couldnt believe the endless rooms filled with awesome game after awesome game. They also had the Primus pinball game which for those of us who are fans of the band is a holy grail of sorts. Only 100 of them exists in the world and i was floored when i saw it. Its really cheap too everything is on free play and its only $10 an hour, $15 for 2 hours or $20 for the entire day. I thought this was an extremely good value for the quality of tables that they have. I found myself playing the Spider-man game most of the time after i was done drooling over the Primus table. The owner was a super nice guy and i enjoyed hearing his story on how the place came to be. They also serve some good craft beers and all the tables have a holder for it while you play. This is the type of place i would travel to come to, truly one of a kind

I originally found The Pinball Palace driving through Brunswick on a Sunday and decided to use Google to find out more. Im happy I did! Ive driven down numerous times from Savannah, and I havent been disappointed. Game play options: $10/hour, $15/two hours, or $20/all day. They have soft drink and beer options. The place is well organized and clean each time I come down. The occasional game is out of order, but there is more than enough other games to make up for it. Ive had the opportunity to speak with the owner, and he was pleasant and easy to speak with. Great place for a date night or a walk down memory lane.

It was rainy all day so we went to a movie and on the way back stopped here, wish we could have stayed longer but time just flew by we were having so much fun. There was a huge selection of machines too play. I would recommend and will certainly be back and they serve alcohol as well so that is nice

Some of the best modern and classic tables anywhere. Immaculately maintained cabinets with a price thats hard to beat. Would visit every week if I lived locally. A hidden gem for those us that miss those mall arcades and maybe even a time before.

It is labeled a museum on here but everything is playable! There are many rooms with pinball machines and arcade games. There is another room with just bounce houses. My family and I loved it

I found this place driving through Brunswick one weekend and decided to come back. Prices: $10/hour, $15/two hours, or $20/full day. As others have mentioned, you need to spend at least two hours. They offer soft drinks and beer. The selection is fantastic, machines ranging from the 1950s to Present. You wont regret a day spent here.

Review №76

If you havent been to this literal palace yet and youve been considering it then what is wrong with you. This is exactly the kind of thing that a town like Brunswick needs and if their level of business on Sundays is any indication Im not the only one that thinks so. I cant think of many better ways one could spend an hour or an afternoon. There is an overwhelming amount of tables and cabinets to play with, there are no tokens to worry about and there is even beer and wine available for Mom and Dad (except on Sundays because of Glynn county) stop reading this review and go there now.

Great selection of clasic games with some fun new ones as well. Excellent opportunity to school your kids in Pacman and show them how viedo games evolved from pinball and Pong (yes they have it) into the fast pace, high graphic games they play at home. A must do when it is either to hot or wet outside.

This place rocks! The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. It’s a “must go” place each time I visit St. Simons. Clean machines and bathroom. I will state I have not been when there was a party or a whole bunch of people. I go weekdays. Take time to “learn” a machine you like. That way you know what to aim for with ball instead of just slapping it around. It’s a no brainer. Go play!!

Review №98

This place is wonderful for young children. My 2 year old had a blast. Parents, be vigilant in watching your little one, the older children seem to lose their mind and forget that toddlers are around. There is no staff to remind the older children not to be so reckless. If staff was present to help keep order, I could rate this place a 5.

Review №99

This place was a pleasant surprise! It was a lot of fun to be able to go through all of the old school pinball games and even play old arcade games like pacman and Mario. There was a great assortment of games to play. Only down side is that a few of the games were out of order. Reasonable price for the time spent there.
