The pinball games rotate on a regular basis & if you go during Freeplay events (usually every Sunday & Monday) you get the *best* bang for your buck for vintage pinball gaming in montreal. If you're looking for a retro pinball arcade vibe, Northstar will not steer you wrong. They have a wide selection of games, ranging from vintage to modern eras, with stern pinball machines if that's of any interest for you pinheads :) The first Wednesday of every month is tournament day with beginners being more than welcome! They also have a nice photo booth. The owners are by far one of the friendliest, most accommodating people I have ever met. They truly have gone above & beyond to create a welcoming & accepting atmosphere with a close knit community that's a rare gem to find in Montreal nowadays. The bartenders are all very knowledgeable & will also create the most amazing cocktails & mixed drinks. I would name names but truthfully every single person that works here deserves an individual shoutout & I hope if you go here you find as much enjoyment as I have. I love this bar. Support a local business & the local pinball scene of Montreal & hopefully Ill see you around on a Freeplay day!
A truely great spot in the city with great games, good drinks, & hella good pickles. Plus the two owners are incredibly sweet & welcoming

Ma femme & moi, on aime bien le pinball, même si c'est plus trop à la mode comme avant. J'ai trouvé pas mal de places avec des machines, que ce soit en Colombie-Britannique, en Ontario ou même à l'étranger, & celle-là, c'est clairement la mieux entretenue que j'ai vue. Les machines sont propres, bien entretenues, & même la White Water de 1993 était en super état. Le proprio fait pas juste ça pour le style, on voit qu'il tient vraiment à ses machines. Si vous aimez le pinball ou vous voulez juste passer un bon moment, c'est une super place. Les drinks sont pas chers & l'ambiance est relax.
My wife & I enjoy pinball, but we all know it's not as common as it used to be. I've found lots of pinball arcades, or places with a machine or two, in the areas I've lived, such as BC, Ontario, & overseas. This is by far the best-maintained place I've visited. The machines are all clean & kept in great condition. Even the White Water pinball machine from 1993 was in immaculate shape. The owner of this bar isn't just running a gimmick, they actually care about their equipment. If you're into pinball or just want to have some fun, this is a great spot. Drinks were reasonably priced, & the atmosphere was chill too.
Great drinks, awesome bartenders, & the best spot for pinball in MTL. Can't go wrong!
This place is DOPE! The machines are insane & in great condition-- Metallica, Dolly Parton, Stranger Things, Godzilla. They have a pong table & boomerang air hockey table, too. One of the owners, Bruno, was working behind the bar when I was there. He's an excellent bartender, so don't think you only need to order well drinks & beer (which is what I'm accustomed to at an arcade bar).
My favorite bar in Montreal hands down! Great atmosphere, very reasonable drink prices, & great staff. Whenever friends come to town I take them here!
It's the ultimate destination for pinball & drinks. Bruno, the bartender, is welcoming & great company. They offer a superb selection of machines & reasonably priced drinks. I'd definitely return whenever I'm in town. 10/10 recommend!
Lovely little gem of an arcade bar up some unassuming stairs. Nice drinks menu, many pinball machines, couple of videogames, a mechanical Pong, & a photo booth!
