Pinball MapUp-Down Des Moines, located at 500 E Locust St in the East Village, is a below-ground arcade bar blending a nostalgic 80s/90s game room with a rotating collection of 11 pinball machines, classic cabinets, skee‑ball and console stations; all games are typically 25¢ per play, and the bar pairs an extensive craft-beer and cocktail list with house-made pizza by the slice and private-event space downstairs.
