Hourly - $15 for one hour admission

Day Pass - $20 for all day admission
We will do our best to provide a safe, fun experience for all, but we do have a couple of warnings:
Currently we do not have any age restrictions although, we do require that minors have adult supervision at all times. We may at some point have a minimum age requirement after a certain hour if that is what our customer base wants.
This is an issue we have been struggling with for some time which is at what age do we say parental supervision is not required. We are new to this so our stance will probably have to evolve over time. At this point the best I can say is that we don't expect to have to strictly enforce parental supervision requirements for teenagers until it becomes a problem, but the reality is that I am almost certain it will become a problem. It has been a while, but I was a teenager once and I was a handful at times. We just want a fun happy environment where people can feel safe and have a good time and we will do whatever we need to do to preserve that. I'm sorry I couldn't provide a clearer answer but honestly in this case I think the only way for us to figure it out is to learn by experience what works and what doesn't.
No. We have pretty severe pet allergies so for that reason and out of respect to others that may have the same or worse issues, we can't have pets inside. Also, many of our machines have actions noises that may hurt or upset your pet.
Yes, we offer a selection of beer and wine for purchase on premise. Although we do not have draft beer on tap, we do have beer by the can, including locally made craft beer as well as popular domestic and import choices.
Yes, we are partnered with Pepsi to offer a range of drink choices (price varies by selection). We also have an assortment of pre-packaged snacks available for purchase.
Yes, but keep a couple of things in mind. If you have purchased a one-hour admission, your pass will expire one hour from the time of purchase. Also, with either the one-hour or all-day pass, if you do leave and we happen to be at our max capacity when you return then you will not be able to re-enter until we are below our maximum capacity.
No, I'm sorry we do not offer childcare services. Minors are welcome but adult supervision is required at all times. We cannot take responsibility for unattended children, therefore children left in our establishment will be reported as abandoned so please take them with you if you have to go.
We accept Cash and Credit Cards. There is a 3.5% credit card fee on all purchases with credit or debit cards.
Want to book a birthday party or private event for your team or group? We offer three hours of Free Play with the arcade all to yourself for private parties and events. Parties and events booked during normal business hours will receive a day pass to enjoy the arcade all day during our normal business hours.
We are available for booking events 7 days a week, year-round, except for major holidays. However, availability may be limited during peak seasons. You may book online through the portal on our Private Events & Parties page or call, text or email us for availability.
You may bring your own birthday cake or cupcakes for your party. Please bring all of your on plates, napkins and utensils. Tables and chairs will be provided. No outside food or beverage please. Catering is permitted for private events only. Please see our Private Events and Parties page for details. No outside beverages of any kind is allowed for any party or event. See our events coordinator for options of beverage packages.
Very little accommodations exist in the pinball market for persons with physical handicaps but if there is sufficient demand for accommodations then we will do our best to create adaptations. For example, the average height of a pinball machine measured at the lockdown bar is 36" and the most common recommended height for individuals in a wheelchair is 28"-32" so we are currently testing our own reduced height pinball machine legs that will fit most of our pinball machines. We are also in the design phase for adjustable height legs and a detachable remote arcade video game control panel, which we will produce if there is a sufficient community need. Adaptations for disabled persons would in most cases only be installed by request for private events. We feel private events are the best way for our customers with physical disabilities to get the most out of their gaming experience since we can modify the physical layout when needed and in a private event, a reduced crowd size would increase the mobility for those requiring additional space to move around. We always have 26" and 30" stools available as well as 4" steps for anyone who would like one. Radioactive Pinball Arcade is located on the ground floor of the Holley Building and the sidewalk has ramps at both ends of the block. The floor of Radioactive Pinball Arcade is concrete with no carpeting.
Radioactive Pinball Arcade buys all of our new pinball machines from Norm at Carolina Pinballs in Columbia, SC (803)602-4390. We do buy and sell used pinball machines and video games from time to time in order to keep the experience new and exciting for our customers. Currently we have our hands full repairing and maintaining our own game collection but if we get to a point where our workload is low then we may start doing customer repairs as well.
Cupholders are on the front legs of the pinball machines and there are many high-top tables to place your drinks and snacks on. Liquid and electronics do not go together very well.
Many of the pinball machines and arcade machines are greater than 40 years old and not replaceable. Please be respectful to the owners of the machines and others that love to play them.
