Antisocial Pinball Lounge

[Chris Bardon]

Booze. It's the "drink inside the bar", leave, "smoke some pot outside the bar", come back in, drink more and collapse scenario

Interesting-never heard of that one, but I've also never tried to insure a bar. Sounds like it could be a pain in the ass.

"Saturday & Sunday 12pm-Late" .

I worked in nightclubs for just under 8 years, but that was 20 years. I had never heard of it until "now" (Antisocial). Supposedly, it is more common than one would think.

Bloody impressive! Yeah, you actually have to have a strategy with such choice...if your not careful your just endlessly flipping going from pin to pin. I stopped halfway through my visit focusing on 2 for the last 90 minutes (Wick & IM) as I've had no time on them in the past and fell in love with them. Next time, I'm reviewing YouTube tutorials before I go...

Well done Steve, First time I've seen a setup like this in Canada!

A buddy and I went last night and were very impressed. Place has a nice atmosphere, is clean, and the machines look great. We will definitely be going back. Only wish it was located in Vaughan and I’d go weekly.

What about us nicotine addicts ?

I've never worked in bar so I have no idea but if people are going outside to smoke up and then collapsing, wouldn't this be an endemic in every bar across the province? I think the issue was likely party drugs at that nightclub and not really reflective of the greater pinball community, but who knows.

Loved the space at Meeple, super stoked to check out the new spot!

Had a great time at Antisocial yesterday. Some real fun games and wish I had more time to hang out. Lots of LE versions, which you don't see very often at an arcade. Looks like there are a lot more games coming as well. Thanks Steve for putting this place together.

Only tip would be to maybe advertise that it is a pinball arcade on the outside. Not sure the street traffic will know "Antisocial" has anything to do with an arcade.

Looking forward to coming by this Thursday, Oct 10th after work.

Now that Stern Insider Connected is working at this location will the other Spike 2 pins that don't have IC yet get one installed in the future?

Is Facebook the best site to use for new pin updates or changes to the hours of operation etc.?

Thanks.

Re Insider: Possible, but not right now. Too many other things to pay for/ get.
Re Facebook: Absolutely not, but there are reasons for it at this time.

When will Meeplemart be closing or is it already closed?

When will Meeplemart be closing or is it already closed?

The arcade portion of Meeplemart is closed, the retail portion is still open.
However, Antisocial is only 2 km from Meeplemart; you can walk it in under half an hour, drive it in 2 min, or take the Bloor subway (1 stop away).

Had the chance to check it out last weekend, although didn't have quite enough time to really dive in.

This is for sure the best collection in a pretty wide radius, and i was so excited to try out several games i've never seen before.

Will definitely be back again this weekend, hopefully for a more extended session.

Went yesterday and spent the whole day. Really good collection of machines and a really cool looking space. Love the pay to enter free play model. More relaxing and easier to enjoy the tougher games. Loved seeing the machines get fixed in real time. A few games like woz and alien went live during the day. Will definitely be back again and again
