Pins Mechanical Co., a Midwest-based social entertainment company, will open a location in the St. Elmo neighborhood this spring.
What’s happening
Pins Austin will open in what was previously planned to be St. Elmo Public Market. Pins Mechanical bought the renovated warehouse in November 2023, according to previous reporting from Community Impact. The market had been sitting empty since its completion in 2022.
The features
The entertainment venue will offer duckpin bowling, arcade games, pinball, a giant light bright pegboard, yard games and more. There will also be three full-service bars with beer, wine, cocktails and mocktails.

Frost also said they are adding a mezzanine level to the building for more bowling lanes and private event space.

Pins Austin will be family-friendly during the day and open to ages 21+ after 9 p.m. The venue will also be pet-friendly.
