About Pinhalla



Behold Pinhalla; one of Canada’s most talked about arcades, and Victoria’s most exciting entertainment destination!

Born of fire, forged in flame; Pinhalla is a pinball hall for the ages. From the ashes of the Powerhhouse Pinball Club, six warriors emerged, burnt but unbroken. A vision coalesced of a pinball afterlife: a place where a battle-weary champion could unwind with an ice cold beer, a feast of delicious pizza and round of the epic and storied pastime: pinball.

Enter our safe and inviting hall crafted for a unique family-friendly experience by day and an adult barcade by night! Marvel in the collection of vintage movie posters, reclaimed neon signage and arcade nostalgia. Dine in our 100 seat pizzeria where you will experience our signature blend of New York / Sicilian pizzas, available by the slice or whole pizza. Enjoy a variety of appetizers and salads and house made deserts to satisfy the most fastidious traveller. We offer local beers on tap, wine by the glass, craft cocktails and a selection of non-alcoholic beverages.

In our massive pinball hall, hone your skills on 35+ pinball machines and a handful of carefully restored coin-op arcades. Play classic titles like Lord of the Rings, Funhouse and Tales from the Crypt or try your luck on the newest releases from Stern, Jersey Jack and Spooky Pinball. Battle the local denizens for standings on our house leaderboards and claim your spot among the legendary at our weekly league nights.

Pinhalla is located in an old merchant warehouse at the base of Canada’s oldest Chinatown, a block from the Gate of Harmonious Interest. We open our doors evening of the week and for lunch on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Minors are welcome until 9pm, provided they are supervised by an adult. Pinhalla features weekly events, trivia nights and DJs on the weekends for the 19+ crowd.

We offer take out and delivery through Uber Eats. Reservations can be made online and our venue is available for private rentals.
