the pinball parlour, campbellfield

Did you know that there’s a hidden pinball parlour right here in Melbourne’s North?!

Head through Bike City Warehouse on Sydney Rd in Campbellfield and you’ll firstly find yourself in a retro wonderland - Man Cave Madness. Whether you’re in the market for some rockabilly memorabilia or after a gift, this superstore is simply a marvel in itself, and great just to have a walk-through or grab some photos.

Keep wandering through and you’ll enter The Pinball Parlour. A sea of every themed machine (over 50!) you can think of, from Toy Story, Avengers, and Ninja Turtles, to Star Wars, Metallica, and more.

Bonus - you can leave the coins at home! All machines are set to ‘free play’, so you simply need to book your session and you have 2 full hours to enjoy as many machines as you can - although the kiddos might find themselves trying to beat the high score on their favourite one!

They also have Daytona for a bit of competitive car-racing fun, and some other retro games too. Mamma loves all of the Star Wars games!

The team here also do pinball and arcade machine repairs if you have something that need fixing.

There are regular tournaments that run too, so keep an eye out on their socials for updates.

The Pinball Parlour is great for all ages, the big kiddos and the little ones too, with stepping stools for the smaller players to get in on the action. Mamma says this is a great indoor spot to spend a couple of hours on a cold day!
