Entry No. 59 — the New Orleans file — filed under: arcade-play

Rendezvous Tavern

A longtime Magazine Street neighborhood bar (open since 1969) that has a dedicated pinball room alongside pool, darts, and video poker. The pinball lineup currently runs four machines including Guns N' Roses, The Mandalorian, Rush, and Jaws. With 80-plus beers, ciders and seltzers, late hours, and rotating food pop-ups, it's a games-and-drinks spot rather than a polished arcade.

The move: Pick two of the four pinball machines, trade off games while sampling from the long beer-and-seltzer list, and grab whatever food pop-up is in that night.

📍 Before you go Pinball selection is small (around four machines) and titles rotate; it's a bar first, so expect a dive-bar vibe.
