Arcadia National Bar
Two swanky floors of pinball, skeeball and arcade games combined with craft cocktails make this barcade the best choice for date night in Portland, ME. Play skee ball for an actual quarter, sign up for a pinball league, wrangle up a match on a board game, or win a round of bingo or trivia. Tiki-ish bar offerings include drinks made from “fluffy” fresh whole fruit like the Jungle Bird, Apple Melon Pear, and Pineapple Garibaldi. Hungry? Arcadia crafts pizza with ingredients like smoked gouda, goat cheese, basil and arugula. Don’t miss the Fruity Pebble frozen cheesecake on a stick. Arcadia also hosts many leagues and tournaments to satisfy your competitive cravings.
Maine Silverball Tavern
Pinball artwork from Brian Allen covers the walls of Maine Silverball Tavern in Saco, ME, where you’ll find a nice collection of craft beer and an even better collection of quarter-player pinball machines. Make your way down the row of Williams machines, including Grand Lizard, Fish Tales, and Taxi, then head to newer Stern machines, including The Mandalorian, complete with a Grogu doll on the playfield, and don’t miss the handful of old electro-mechanical pinball machines like pitch and bat baseball games. All ages are welcome, but a parent must accompany children. Silverball Tavern is also a host of The New England Pinball League and tournaments.
