If you've been here for a weekly, you've seen world-class pinball. Tonight was no different. Thanks, as always, to everyone. Thanks for being our friend.

It is with immense sadness that I announce the closure of Flip Flip Ding Ding. 😭😭😭

I started this business with my friend Katie () 8 years ago after we discovered how much we loved playing pinball after work. We would clock out from the old button shop I owned at 6012 12th Ave South and head next door to The Mix or Jules Mae's and spend hours playing.

We had no idea what a giant part of our lives pinball would become.

Of all the challenges Flip Flip has overcome these 8 years, those faced over the last 2 have proven too great. From the city demanding the removal of our upstairs mezzanine (and other costly renovations to satisfy building code), to our 10 month closure for quarantine and then diminished business once we finally re-opened, it's simply no longer possible to continue operations. We have exhausted every resource.

A detailed list of gratitudes will follow in coming weeks, but for now, I wanted to let you all know how much I and everyone at Flip Flip love and appreciate you.

We couldn't ask for a better family. ❤

-Rex Ray

What better way to spend the Holidays than at an arcade!

Happy Holidays 😊

INDOOR & OUTDOOR seating now available! Tables are spaced apart inside. We also added a second tent outside with wider spacing for safer distancing and to keep you as dry as possible.

Games are turned on, but to stay safe (and legal), they are NOT currently playable.
