South Florida's pinball scene stretches across three counties and more than sixty miles of coastline. Miami-Dade anchors the southern end with dedicated arcades, while Broward County—particularly the Oakland Park Culinary Arts District—has emerged as a hub for pinball lounges and craft breweries with machines. Further north, Palm Beach County rounds out the region with a vintage arcade museum and bar games.
The venues range from retro arcades with 70+ machines on free play to neighborhood bars with a handful of pins near the pool tables. Whether you're staying in Miami Beach, visiting Fort Lauderdale, or driving down from Palm Beach, you'll find pinball scattered across the region. Here's where to find pinball across the Miami and South Florida metro.
