Entry No. 15 — the St. Louis file — filed under: arcade bar

The Silver Ballroom

This legendary South City dive bar is a self-proclaimed 'Retox Center' dedicated to punk rock, cheap PBR, and nearly 20 meticulously maintained pinball machines. Hidden inside the bar is 'Tiny Chef,' a beloved, tiny kitchen serving some of the city's best Korean-inspired street food and bibimbap.

The move: Go on a Monday night when all the pinball machines are set to free play. Challenge your date to a match on a vintage machine, then split a bowl of bulgogi steak bibimbap with fiery 'Dragon' sauce from the Tiny Chef counter.
