Pins Mechanical Co. is officially open in the St. Elmo District — and it’s ready to become your new go-to hangout spot.

Austinites can enjoy a unique blend of nostalgic games, specialty cocktails, and a vibrant atmosphere in a 43,000-sqft venue (read: the largest location to date), packed with endless entertainment options.

Expect 20 duckpin bowling lanes, 25 pinball machines, nearly 30 classic arcade games, and interactive activities like foosball, ping pong, and oversized yard games.

Designed as a dynamic social hub, Pins offers three bars serving craft cocktails, a curated selection of local and regional draft beers, and alcohol alternatives — including low- and no-proof options. Pro tip: Enjoy rotating food trucks nearby.

With private event spaces, cozy fire pits, and a central courtyard, it’s the perfect destination for any occasion. Bonus: The space is dog-friendly, both indoors and outdoors.

Swing by Monday through Thursday (4 p.m.-12 a.m.), Friday and Saturday (12 p.m.-2 a.m.), and Sunday (12 p.m.-12 a.m.).
