Silverball Retro Arcade

Silverball is a pinball museum and arcade at 1000 Ocean Avenue, a block from the Asbury Park Boardwalk. Machines run on free play once you have paid for time, so there are no coins to feed. The listed collection runs from a 1931 Rotary Merchandiser to a 2024 Elton John table.

The site also advertises a cafe, a party area, event hosting and merchandise. Parking is a daily flat-rate lot across the street or metered spots on the street.

The official page currently shows two conflicting sets of hours and prices, including a one-hour price that appears to be a typo, so none are repeated here. Call 732-774-4994 or check the site before you go. It is an easy rainy-day option when the beach is out.
