Past Times Arcade

Awesome! Just pure Awesomeness!! Great variety of Pinball and arcade games! Fun for all ages! The atmosphere is amazing. You can see the joy on the faces of the people visiting! Incredible value for your money. I recommend any pinball/gaming fan stopping by! They serve food and drink if you need. Staff is ultra friendly! It's just a great place to be!

This was such a fun place to visit! I had a great time and honestly spent the whole day here. A lot of the machines are free to play along with the arcade. It was so cool to see the tournaments happening as well. I would 100% recommend this place to absolutely anyone and can't wait to go back myself.

Incredible selection of pinball machines in pristine condition. Everything is well laid out and organized with plenty of space. Food and drink options aren't great, but you may come and go as you like with paid admission (which grants freeplay access to all tables and machines).

Amazing place full of hard to find games from all ages! Fun for the whole family! You can't miss it! It has the biggest pinball collection in the world. In fact Rob Berk, owner of Past Times, has the guinnes world record of the biggest pinball collection!

We held a surprise 40th birthday there this past weekend, and all I can say is WOW. The staff was so helpful in set up, with all of our guests, and throughout the whole day. The arcade itself has so much for every age, we had kids to grandparents in attendance and no one wanted to leave! Thank you to Terrance and the team for making it a day to remember!

Holy Moly! It was like stepping back into time and hanging out in the arcade! Past Times has like 400 pinball and about another 200 video games. You pay one price. $20 for adults and $10 for kids. And then you can play all day long!!!! They give you an armband and you can leave and come back!!! They have a snack bar with beer! I don't remember that from my youth! Prices were reasonable. But again, you can leave and come back without paying again. My son and I spent about 3 or 4 hours. They have pinba

Pretty cool place. You pay one time like I'm assuming $20 for adults. $10 for kids and play anything you want. 400 pinball games and 200 arcade games. Pretty neat. Highly recommend

Past Times Arcade was an awesome experience! All day for $20. Food drink and alcohol available on site too! Vintage looking diner design. Thursday night was pinball competition. My wife and I enjoyed it a lot. 600+ pinball machines and 200+ video machines. UNBELIEVABLE!!

This is the best place to go and play pinball if thats your thing. Was worth the drive. One price to play all day, and concessions are very reasonably priced.

Wow!!! I'm back in the 80's as a 13 year old blowing my allowance in one fail swoop! This place is great. Play all you want for $20 ($10 for kids). Machines in great working order. Tons of pinball options. Can't recommend this place enough!!!

Had a great time here. The place has loads of classic video games and pinball. Most of the machines worked great. A few were out of order and roadblasters was not set to free play for some reason. Bigger restrooms would be nice and more staff to roam and service the games.

We held a party for 12 11-12 year olds. Invited family and siblings....Let me tell you this place was great across the board. They helped with a pre-menu to have food ready and it was really good for quick fried food. In the party room they had a TV with our logo and welcome, good for pictures. The kids were able to take advantage of the entire place even while open to the public, there's just so many games. Also, for small children they even have little fold up stools so they can reach and play the games.

What an unbelievable place!!! If you love pinball you must visit Past Times. It is truly the Mecca of Pinball. 400+ games. All very well maintained and ready to play. Tons of memorabilia and info on many of the designers of all of our favorites. We visited twice during our stay and I still don't believe I saw half of what there was to see. Must go back!!!

Hours of fun for myself and my family! Best place to be able to play all you want. Every time I go I'm in pinball heaven ??

Amazing selection of retro arcade games and pinball machines. Pay 1 price and you free play all night! Well worth it, super fun!

This has been one of the funnest places we've been to in a long time. Especially around here. Very clean, a whole lot of games, the food was really good. Good. The milkshakes were amazing. I think I came across one game. I couldn't figure out how to start. Maybe it didn't work but everything else worked great. It was a great experience. Definitely will come here again, especially the fact that we can come and go all day. And they're open late.

This place is absolutely amazing. I had the greatest time. It was very nostalgic and all the greatest old video games and pinball machines. Guitar Hero was the best surprise!!! However, if I have a complaint it would be the concessions. The prices for the concessions are completely outrageous. A 12 oz glass bottle of Soda is $3 plus and a small order of fries?.it is a basket with a small portion of fries for $4.50. But the overall price for admission is very reasonable. It's kind of like going to the theate

Talk about a place you don't want to leave. Past Times arcade was a blast from the past and brought back all the memories from when I was a kid running around the penny arcade with my friends. There's a plethora of games from multiple generations, the staff must have all trained at Disney, and the food was incredible. A++ experience and would recommend this arcade to anyone looking for a good time. I'll definitely be going back soon!

We were at Past times last night for a cousins 50th anniversay party. I had so much fun playing all the machines. With 600 machines to choose from you cant get bored. Yes they have great milkshakes and a nice selection of adult beverages too. The staff were so nice. The place was spotless as well. Not one bad thing to say. Go and enjoy!

Spent 3-4 hours here today with my boys. It's nice to be able to pre-pay and play all you want. The staff was friendly and everything I played was clean and working. The big draw is the selection on pinball games. Tables from old to new. We ate at the snack bar, which also was reasonably priced and the milkshakes were really great. It never felt over crowded, we were there on Saturday from 11am to 2pm.

As a 50 y/o man, I was not prepared for the level of nostalgia I got hit with. These folks have put my entire childhood under one roof. There's not many places I can honestly say are something special, but Past Times fits the bill. Truly remarkable.

Had my daughter's birthday party there. Was awesome Over 50 people. The most video games I've ever seen in one place. Super nice staff. Great food. The chicken tenders are fabulous.

We had a perfect experience at Past Times Arcade! Our group included many variables of which the staff were happy to oblige.

AMAZING place to go with the family!!!! The games are well maintained and all unlocked for one price! You can play all the games for the price of admission and kids are a separate price. So many games to play that you can't play them all in one visit. The history of the games is so very interesting! New games, old games, video games, pinball machines. You can play games, leave, and come back in one day with the wristband you get. The staff is very helpful and courteous and the facility is clean and well mai

Wow what a cool place! So many great games. You can spend an entire day there. Lots and lots of pinball games. The old ones are pretty cool and fun to play. Highly recommend

ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS WAY TO SPEND A DAY!!! EVEN MORE SO IF YOU PLAYED ARCADE GAMES IN THE 70'S AND 80'S. Extremely friendly staff! We came here and opened up the place at 11:00 on a Saturday and stayed until 7:30. Even during peak hours, there is always something cool to play while you wait for someone else to finish up on the game you want to go to. We didn't try there food, but we will the next time we go. General Manager Terrance Bennett is awesome! $20 admission fee and all the games are set up to play

Past Times Arcade is an absolute gem! From the moment you walk in, you're greeted by a friendly and welcoming staff who clearly love what they do. The arcade features hundreds of pinball machines?everything from rare vintage classics to the latest modern releases. It's a dream come true for any pinball enthusiast. The variety of arcade games instantly transported me back to my childhood. Whether you're into retro favorites or just looking for a fun way to spend a few hours, there's something here for every

This place is a truly hidden gem. I live about an hour away and had never heard of it until I happened to see a TikTok video about it. My husband has fond childhood memories of playing in arcades, and my 10 year old son is very into retro video games, so we decided to check it out. We were SO impressed. The admission rates are very reasonable, and the place is HUGE. You pay a flat rate and can play as long as you'd like. You can even exit and return the same day, so you could leave and grab food at one of t

This place is awesome. $20 per adult and you can spend hours here. Loved playing the very early mechanical games and shooting games.

Superior all the way with friendly staff, delicious food and fantastic games. I'll be visiting again this Saturday and looking forward to seeing and playing more games and eating more delicious food. I visualize them expanding the building within 5 years to allow double the amount of games playable.

So much fun! Paying one price for an all-you-can play experience is awesome!! There's a huge variety of pinball machines here, but also a wide selection of other arcade games - truly something for everyone! My only wish is that they expanded their food offerings a bit, but there is always the option to leave, eat, and come back to play more.

My husband and I went here for the first time and had a really nice visit. There were so many pinball and arcade games to choose from. The fact that everything is unlimited play makes it really nice we were there for over 2 hours and it felt like we had been there a half hour. Would have stayed longer but we had dinner plans.

A hidden gem filled with nostalgia and memories of childhood. Such an amazing place. Two hours flew by so fast. Old arcade, pinball, shooter games, and driving games. Highly recommend!!!!

This was so much fun. Plenty of old school pinball and video games. For the most part, no waiting except for the most popular games. Awesome old school shooting gallery. Great staff and VERY affordable. Nice little snack bar (beer available), and great staff. WELL WORTH THE DRIVE.

Thier was fun for the whole family . Never saw so many slots

This place is so cool and nostalgic. I wish there was more places like this. I traveled about an hour and 45 mine to go here. Me and my daughter loved it, played for about 4 hours without even noticing. I will definitely go back. So many cool pinball machines and video game's. All set to free play, you pay one fee at the door and it's well worth the money I think.

I had an amazing time here!! It's a flashback to the 80's with something for everyone. Highly recommend!!!

Having grown up in the pinball/video arcade era, this was simply a blast! There is nothing like an actual physical pinball experience. And there are so many classic, as well as newer, machines to enjoy. Well worth the price of admission. I just wish it was closer to Columbus!

20$ per adult for all day gameplay. They have some monthly , quarterly, lifetime and yearly passes that are super fair if you're going to come often. A lot of so it can be a bit overwhelming. You could spend all day here. It was a blast. The bathrooms were clean. The small kitchen they had was clean. Although it would be dope if they sold alcohol. Overall I would highly recommend coming to have fun that's for sure ! I will be back

Past Times is the best and most impressive collection of playable pinball machines in the world, bar none. I recently planned a whole trip across country with the sole intent of playing this collection, and it did not disappoint. Their focus on electromechanical games made my heart sing, as those older games are so rare to see now. Getting to plays rows of them, all tuned up and playing wonderfully was an absolute joy. We spent two full days here, and I still wish that we would have gotten to do three.

It's definitely an incredible experience and well worth the drive. A minor complaint: in my opinion almost none of the machines are loud enough. It can affect the playability of individual games and overall the place just doesn't sound like an arcade from back in the day. Regardless, I will be back, even though it's over an hour drive for me.

This place is a lot of fun. An incredible amount of pinball machines from very old to new. I also like that they serve food and drinks, including beer.

We had so much fun here! So many pinball machines and newer games like Pac-Man and Centipede. The world's largest pinball machine was fun to play and the manager was very nice. We drove an hour to get here and will come back!!

Went with the kids, 9 & 11, and they had a great time. We spent about 4 hours playing games and running around. Next time, I am hoping we stay a little longer as there were still games I wanted to play. They have food and drink options as well, in case you get hungry or thirsty while playing. All in all a well run facility and we are planning on going back.

We had a great time! We came on a Saturday not long after they opened and they weren't crazy busy. Staff was super friendly and knowledgeable (the manager was great, let me take a picture of the pinball machine he was working on), and it was much bigger than I expected. Overall I'm so happy we have something like this around here and we're planning on returning soon!

Can't believe how amazing this place is!!!!! The nostalgia is unparalleled! Thank You for bringing my inner child out again!!

It was a great experience and a lot of memories from the games from the 80s. It is not only pinball machines but also video games. You pay to go in they gave us a wristband and play all day. We played up to 2pm and then went to the museum, then went to eat, and afyer that we went to the movie theater and after the movie theater we went back again to Past Times, because they gave us a wristband that's good for the whole day... so we went back and played some more until they closed.

This place is awesome. I drove 3 hours from Central PA and will be back. $20 for adults $10 for 15 and younger and the little ones get in for free. One of my favorite games back in the 80s was Tempest and was surprised to see it . My skills have diminished since I was 14 but I did ok after 40 years. Playing real pinball after 10 years of playing on my iPad was super fun and playing the real versions was my main focus. Next time I'll just play every game. Super fun, family friendly. This place will not disap

Fabulous place to play--so much pinball in one place! Favorite video games, too. Appreciate the history info with each game. Cafe offers hot dogs, chicken tenders, funnel cake fries, milkshakes and more. We'll be back, for sure.

Pinball machines and arcade video games, foreign and domestic, from all eras. Friendly and helpful staff. One admission price to access it all. This place is AMAZING! My family are mostly pinball nerds with a few video game geeks mixed in. This is the place for us! If you are wondering if you would be a fan of this nostalgia and fun, try it. You will love it!

We got a sneak peak a bit before they officially open. WOW, WOW, WOW - this place is AMAZING!!! It's not about the number of games (there's a boat load)- it's the quality of the games and the rarity of many of the games - "Magic Girl" pinball HELLO? ?? Plus a large and well though out building and facilities. Past Times Arcade will be a must stop location for me.

Nice place to take a family or for grown adults also. Value for your money is excellent. Over 400 pinball machines with lots of classics and extremely rare titles from other countries. It's a little history of pinball with games as far back as the 30?s it seems. The owner really cares about pinball. You can have a beer and play to your hearts content for $20. They even have a restaurant in the back. We went on a Saturday and it was very busy. Maybe 3spots left in the parking lot. I didn't see a few of the n

Staff is awesome. Machines are awesome. If some dont work, you have to remember that they're probably older than you are. These machines are sophisticated and can be delicate and take skill to fix. Be understanding and find another one. Theres hundreds. The regulars are nice people and welcoming (im one of them.) A membership pays for itself if you actually enjoy pinball and arcades. I can't recommend enough.

Great experience! The games are so plentiful. About 5% don't work but you don't care because there are so many. They have a small food bar with a bunch of off brand sodas. None of the brand names have any diet sodas. The only bad thing is that there is only one restroom.

Truly remarkable. A dream come true for pinball aficionados of all ages. Mind blowing collection covering 70 plus years of pinball history. The "Pinball Hall of Fame" in Vegas should renounce its title and relinquish it to Girard, Ohio. I reported several minor issues via the app when I was onsite. Staff were investigating the issues within 20 minutes! A must...period.

Had my granddaughters birthday party there. Staff was super friendly and helpful. Thank you! Kids and parents all had a wonderful time. Definitely recommend for a party or just to hang out and have a fun day.

This place is absolutely incredible! Honestly, this place is a national historical treasure that I was shocked to find in downtown Girard! The place is clean, almost EVERY SINGLE GAME WORKS. It's astounding the amount of time and effort these people have put into making these games operational. The information about the games, the QR codes with more details and videos, the neat high-score app and so much more. I promise you, you won't be disappointed with your 20 dollar entry fee to the arcade!

Our son brought us here. We use to live near here. This use to be a grocery store. It was 20.00 to play all day. I think you can even leave and come back. Lots of games I forgot about or I played them on a game system. Some didn't work but it's just like an old arcade place. Definitely would come back.

An awesome place to come play pinball. You can spend hours here and not play everything. They have a good variety of older and newer pinball cabinets. They also have a decent selection of arcade cabinets.

This place is absolutely amazing. I highly reccomend getting out to this place as soon as you can. $20 for and all day pass, and all the arcade and pinball games are set to freeplay. I only saw 5 or so novelty prize games that required money to play(claw machine, candy shovel, cut the rope, ect.) An affordable concession stand, and (thankfully) a bathroom expansion coming soon. I honestly can't think of a negative aspect of this place, other than it's not closer!

This was a great adventure, drove about an hour, and it was well worth every minute spent there. Planning to go back soon.

What a sweet place to kill some time!

Past Times is like a love letter to pinball, it's a gem of an arcade. Each machine is so well maintained and cared for. You really get your bang for your buck, I love that there's reentry too. There's something for everyone of any age, I absolutely adore this arcade.

I came all the way from Cleveland, and I had an absolute blast!! 100/10 I would go back here again, as I had a wonderful time here. This place is a pinball lover's dream! Hours and hours of fun for everyone. :)

Overall it's a cool place, but main issue is the ventilation. The food oil/smoke fills up the place and it's quite bad at times. Had to leave for a bit to get the eyes to stop burning and not feel like someone punched me in the chest.

This place was really fabulous place to spend the day with the whole family. Everyone loved it. The staff was incredibly nice and helpful. Prices were great. Definitely will go back very soon.

If you like pinball, they got a few of those. If you like arcade games, they got a few of those If you like to sniff toe nail polish while laying in a jacuzzi filled with popcorn, seek psychological help, otherwise head to one of the largest and rarest collections of arcade and pinball machines anywhere on the planet. This family run business is just oozing good vibes and passion for the arcade culture rarely found. Super cheap for the quality and quantity of games you get. Really an absolute steal when you

One of the finest retro arcades in the country! Amazing collection of video game cabinets, loads of pinball machines, and an excellent selection of electro-mechanical games! The building is clean and comfortable, and the staff is welcoming and friendly. I will be back! ?????????? Past Times gets top score!

This place is fantastic. Traveled about 3 hrs from NY to come here. So many gems in the pinball/ video game collection. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Would like to go back again in the future!

This is a retro pinball arcade with some other arcade games mixed in there. The amount of Pinball games is astounding! Like rows & rows of them. However, that also makes playing games here very repetitive. Pinball no matter the different name or theme is the same game. The lack of variety in the games is the reason I give this a 4/5. This is still a great place to check out & play at but I wouldn't spend anymore than a few hours here personally. Overall. it starts off amazing & slowly becomes repetitive.

Great place to play pinball and vintage video games. My friends and I love this place. If you love pinball or used to play pinball, you need to check this place out. Thank you Rob for sharing your pinball machines with the public.

Totally amazing experience! So many great arcade games and pinball machines... and games I've never seen (but awesome)! Totally highly recommended for anyone! Great fun!

Best place to play pinball and arcade games! I have been to tons of arcades back when they were a thing, and I've been to many Pinball shows. Pinball shows are always a problem because people will bring just about any game so they can get in for free and the games aren't set up correctly and the games aren't well maintained. With Past times arcade, all the games are in excellent condition, they are set up correctly and well maintained. So you end up with hundreds of good playing machines versus trying to f

My brother and I went here Friday January 10th, 2025. All I can say is, this place is UNREAL! It was a sensory overload in the best way possible! We loved the 90?s classics especially, like Twilight Zone and Theatre of Magic. Worth the trip, even on a dreary winter night with snow storms. What better way to spend a cold Ohio night than learning about and playing this record-setting pinball collection? And for only $20?! I feel that more pinball arcades need to take note of this. I really can't say enough go

One of the greatest pinball arcades I have ever witnessed and I hear it's only 1/10 of his personal collection. Simply amazing, machines are top notch, rare and in A+ condition. Can't wait to see this arcade grow! Even has a retro shop inside!!

Great experience! The staff were friendly and helpful. The games were all in great condition, and there are so many you won't get bored.

I stopped by Past Times Arcade while visiting friends in the area. The arcade made for a great evening with some friendly competition. They offer hundreds of pinball games, as well as other arcade games. Looking to buy some vintage video games, they have that too. But it doesn't end there? they also have a concession stand with hotdogs, chicken tenders, funnel cakes and milkshakes! If you are in the area and looking for a unique experience I would highly recommend stopping by Past Times!

What are fun place this is! This is truly a gem of the Mahoning Valley. This establishment has a wide variety of arcade and pinball games. Relive your childhood favorites and enjoy something new. My wife and I came here for a date day and had a blast. Very welcoming facility, attentive staff, and a great memories help create the ultimate arcade experience. We will definitely be returning!

This place is an absolute gem!! Had so much fun with the kiddos playing lots of games from my childhood. Can't wait to go back!!

Our kids had a very nice time here. Drove 3 hours round-trip, well worth it and staff was also very friendly. Thank you again ??.

Awesome collection of pinball and arcade games. [ on the level of Pinball Hall of Fame in Las Vegas & Pinball PA in Pittsburgh ] A lot of great electro mechanical pinballs plus a lot of uncommon solid state machines.( They have a "Varkon" pinball game ! ) They have rare and common arcade games ( --- a working "Space Fury" - WOW ! ). The entire back row is mechanical target shooting games that'll please grandpa and the grand kids! The first game in the building is an actual "Computer Space " - the first

This place is amazing! For those of you who grew up with the arcade console games in the '80s, this place just about has them all. I felt like a teenager being here. Friendly staff and just an awesome place.

It's definitely worth the trip. Lots of games. Good variety of pinball and arcade games. You could easily spend half a day here.

Unreal selection of games and pinball. Everything was in great shape as well. Also enjoyed the bits of history posted on the rarer machines. Just leave and come back if you are hungry though. Waited 30 minutes for air fried french fries.

This place is a GEM! Recently opened. Once word spreads this place will be packed. Currently have over 600 classic arcade games. Which 399 of them are pinball. Dating back to when your grandfather used to play. Up to the latest pinball machines. (Foo Fighters) Many limited editions. Pay the entrance fee for all-day FREE PLAY! They have monthly score challenges and leagues. Ask for a stool for your kiddos.

Fun! Our 8 & 11 (and 40 and 71) year olds all liked it! A little expensive unless you plan to go for a while. They said you can go and come back on the same day.

Past Times Arcade is the meeting point of history in entertainment and fun for all ages. Whether it is your 1000th time playing a game, or first, Past Times is a warm and welcoming environment for all to learn and play. Also for every skill level as they offer competitive and casual play. With over 600 machines, I myself have spent hours and haven't even scratched the surface on all their games. I will be coming back many times to Past times and if you are looking for something to do, I suggest you do as we
