Tin Pin Game Bar opening at Tin Lizzy’s/Avenue East Cobb

We posted back in November about the expansion of the Tin Lizzy’s Avenue East Cobb to include a gaming bar.

That addition, the Tin Pin Game Bar, is opening on Friday, in the former Beni’s Cubano space, and will feature menu items from Tin Lizzy’s in a family-friendly entertainment space.

The gaming space is connected to Tin Lizzy’s dining room and “will feature 10 pinball machines and a collection of arcade games alongside the restaurant’s full menu of tacos, quesadillas, margaritas and specialty cocktails,” according to a Tin Lizzy’s release.

Games include Ms. Pac-Man, Galaga and Donkey Kong, and there will be high-tech Stern pinball machines featuring modern properties like the Mandalorian, Deadpool, Godzilla and the recently released Venom pinball game.

Tin Lizzy’s is operated by the Atlanta-based Southern Proper Hospitality, and Tin Pin will have a pinball collection “curated” by Atlanta resident Kevin Grillo, a nationally ranked pinball player.

Tin Pin’s pinball collection is curated by Kevin Grillo, a nationally ranked pinball player and Atlanta resident whose expertise has contributed to the collections at other Atlanta gaming establishments.

“Arcade games appeal to guests across multiple demographics and so does our Tex-Mex menu,” Southern Proper partner Chris Hadermann said in the release. “We’re excited about the experience we’re creating at Tin Pin Game Bar.”

Tin Pin is at 4475 Roswell Road, Suite 1510A at Avenue East Cobb. Hours are Sunday-Thursday from 11 a.m. to 10 a.m. and Friday-Saturday 11 a.m. to 11 p.m.

The bar is open to all ages during daytime hours but in the evenings is limited to ages 21 and older.
