Finally, the question “What’s the move tonight?” has an easy answer.

Pins Mechanical Bowling in Ohio City is a new, four-in-one spot offering duckpin mechanical bowling, bocce and a mini arcade of pinball machines (which features some retro throwback themes like Jurassic Park and Batman). It all comes thanks to a collaboration with 16-Bit, the arcade bar formerly located in Lakewood.

Though the West 25th Street spot makes you feel like a kid again, the adult drink menu is just as playful, featuring original $10 cocktails such as the Betty Boop made with watermelon moonshine (you heard that right) or the Pinball Wizard, made with blueberry vodka, elderflower and ginger ale. pinsbar.com
