By far, the Best Bar in Belltown. Great pinball, fantastic drinks, fun bartenders, and some of the best dogs in town. Been coming here for years and love this place. If you play pinball, the machines are well maintained and ready to play. Machines take quarters and bills and there is a change machine in between the front bar and the back bar. If you haven's had a dog here I would suggest the Number 3 dog with tomato, Mama Lil's peppers, and cream cheese.

Such a good bar and has a lot of great pinball games. And they have a clown memorabilia. So if you are a lover of clowns this is a good place to go. And they're really good for their hot dogs definitely check that out.

Honestly one of the best bars I've been too, even went on a Wednesday night and the place was alive! Service was pretty quick for having a bar tender/chef... appreciate your good service. If you're into lights, pinball, hotdogs, and good drinks this is the place to go. We got a variety of dogs, a pulled pork sandwich, and more and it was some of the best bar food we've had. You gotta take a look at the tables, they're all old pin ball machines, how cool! Games were really fun, and not expensive like places in capital hill. Really good environment, with a large variety of games. Check this place out!

Great spot for late night drinks and veggie dogs. Fun pinball options, beer ball (skeeball), and even a claw machine of their own. Bartenders were friendly and attentive.

This place was great! Loved the vibe, music, atmosphere. Pinball machines! Don't come for the hot dogs. LOL

The moment you step inside, it’s clear this place was designed by someone who took clown college way too seriously—but in the best way possible. Pinball machines line the walls, blinking like a fever dream, and the whole place smells like nostalgia, cheap beer, and questionably legal carnival prizes. The bartender slides a Rainier across the counter with the efficiency of someone who’s been here since the grunge era. The real magic? The hot dogs. A perfect balance of guilty pleasure and genuine culinary achievement. Outside, Belltown morphs into condo hell, but inside, it’s an unapologetic time warp where skee-ball scores still matter, and no one judges you for ordering a second round of tater tots. Seattle changes. This place doesn’t. Thank god. ALL the bartenders were also super nice.

Nice dive bar with cheap food and drinks! They have a few arcade games and pinball machines but don't expect this place to be a "full-on" arcade bar because they don't really have a lot of games; they just happened to have some games. I think the tables being an old pinball machine was super cool! The bartenders were chill and nice. Overall a cool little dive bar with good hotdogs!
