Sunshine Laundromat, mentioned in the article, is excellent. It's just generally a lot of fun: it's an actual laundromat up front. There's a door in the back that looks like a washer/dryer combo; walk through it, and you find a nice cozy bar and ~20 machines. The article mentions that a bartender is highly ranked; I've also had friends run into the people who actually made and designed the machines, as well. One of my friends is very into pinball, and getting to play a game on one of his favorite machines against the designer himself (who was apparently a great guy) was a real special moment for him.
I'm thrilled to see pinball making a resurgence in popularity, especially among a younger millennial crowd. The side effect is that my project games are way, way more expensive and hard to find now, but I'm still pleased to see people interested in something I thought was dead and gone after Williams closed in 1999.
