Their new location in Hendersonville has around 35 pinball machines and around 25 arcade machines. The same owners recently opened this new location. It wasn't just we older fogies, but young people, too.Ĭan't say enough of how much I loved this place. 24 reviews of Appalachian Pinball Museum 'This is the sister location to the Asheville Pinball Museum in downtown Asheville. Next time we visit (which I hope is soon), we will allot more time for this magical place whisks me back to the future.Īnother lovely aspect of this Museum was that there were people of all ages and genders playing there. We only had 2 hours left so that is all we played, albeit we could have gone on and on and on. The place is priceless.Ībove each machine you are told the history and age and number of machines made. I even forgot to tell them I was a senior citizen and ask for a discount. For 13$, you can play to your heart's content! The sound of the balls pinging took me back to my youth within a minute of walking in. This Museum has about 50 old Pinball Machines. Although you cannot see all of Asheville in even a week, we did manage to see a few sites and partake in most. This was our last stop on our one day journey to Asheville and what a glorious finale. I don't know what wheelchair visitors are supposed to do in that area. My GA handdicapped card was in the windshield and a manual wheelchair and walker plainly visible in our backseat. We live in a tiny Georgia town so permit lots are not something we are accustomed to. The sign was very obvious we just did not see it. An hour later we camed out and had a $20 parking ticket for parking in a permit only lot. Someone pulled out of the parking lot across the street and we took the corner spot. There was one, occupied, around the corner and a ramp to reach the level of the pinball museum. There were no handicapped spaces on the main street. However, we are in our 80's and I use a power wheelcchaiir. We were amazed the place was full of people paying $15 for unlimited play. Loved a baseball one we remembered where the metal players run around the bases for the hits you get. We enjoyed our visit to this active museum even though our pinball history was in the 50's and they did not have too many working that were from that era.
