Lynn’s Arcade: A Pinball Parlor and Can Slangery

1760 Fremont Blvd., Suite D1, Seaside (831) 641-7173

Electricity may have been scarce in the Old West, but there were still plenty of games to be played. Hit up any saloon and take a seat at one of the many faro, blackjack and poker tables. If you were looking for something a little more risky, you could try your hand (literally) at five-finger fillet. If the cowgirls and boys from that era visited Lynn’s Arcade, they would be dumbstruck by the bright lights and lively sounds from the nearly 40 pinball machines that line the walls of the arcade. But if there’s one thing that would feel familiar to those who frequented the saloons, it would be Lynn’s bar with plenty of beer on offer.
