Pinball Bar Moves Into Former Greenpoint Beer & Ale Co. Location

BROOKLYN, NY — A blast from the past has arrived in Greenpoint with the opening of a retro-themed pinball bar.

Scrappleland, the new bar, has stepped into the space at 1150 Manhattan Ave., between Box and Ash Streets, previously home to Greenpoint Beer & Ale Co., which closed its doors late last year.

Following its grand opening this past weekend, Scrappleland—home to nearly 30 vintage pinball machines—offers the perfect mix of classic games and modern bar vibes, featuring a wide selection of beers and a rooftop area for sunny days

Their collection spans from classic Nineties games like The Addams Family, Monster Bash, and Medieval Madness to arcade favorites such as Ice Cold Beer and Pac-Man Battle Royale Chompionship.

Now fully open, the bar’s hours are Monday through Friday from 4 p.m. to 2 a.m., and weekends from 12 p.m. to 2 a.m.

Scrappleland is co-owned by Ali Bisset and Peter Rose, owner of Greenpoint’s Sunshine Laundromat, located just down the street at 860 Manhattan Ave., between Noble and Milton Streets. Opened over a decade ago, Sunshine Laundromat is home to a hidden beer bar with one of the city’s best collections of publicly playable pinball machines.
