We don’t play around when it comes to quality. Eureka Heights is a proud, official Stern Army location, which basically means we’re dedicated to bringing the best pinball experience to players.
What does that mean for you? Access to the latest and greatest Stern pinball machines, a community of passionate players, and a commitment to keeping our games in tournament-quality condition. When Stern releases a new machine, chances are you’ll find it on our floor.

Our selection features over 25 modern pinball machines. You’ll find all the latest releases from STERN Pinball, Spooky Pinball, and Jersey Jack Pinball.
If you’re new to pinball, don’t feel like you need to jump straight to the most complex machine. Games like The Mandalorian or Godzilla are visually stunning and beginner-friendly, while still offering depth for experienced players.
Our regular players love talking about pinball. If you’re not sure which machine to try or want tips on a particular game, just ask. The pinball community thrives on sharing the love of the game.
You’re at one of Houston’s best breweries, after all. Our taproom offers a full lineup of craft beers, seltzers, and non-alcoholic options. Sipping a cold one between games is practically tradition.
Weekday afternoons and early evenings tend to be quieter, giving you more freedom to hop between machines without waiting.
“The pinball scene at Eureka Heights isn’t your typical setup. It’s a true community hub organized by the Space City Pinball League. They bring people together for regular tournaments, casual games, and themed events that feel more like a social club than a token-churning arcade. It’s inclusive and welcoming, whether you’re flipping for the first time or chasing high scores like a seasoned pro. And because the machines are woven right into the taproom not tucked away in a separate room the pinball becomes part of the overall brewery experience.”
Right here at Eureka Heights Brew Co. in the Heights! We combine a world-class pinball lineup with craft beer, a welcoming atmosphere, and a passionate community of players. Our location at 941 W 18th Street puts you in one of Houston’s most vibrant neighborhoods, with easy access, plenty of parking, and a taproom that’s as comfortable as it is fun.
Keep an eye on our events calendar and social media channels for tournament announcements. Most of our tournaments are open to all skill levels, and we’ll walk you through the rules if it’s your first time competing. Just show up, sign in, and get ready to play.
We’d recommend starting with games that have clear objectives and forgiving gameplay. The Pokemon and Godzilla are great entry points. They’re visually engaging, have straightforward missions, and don’t punish you too harshly for missed shots. Our staff can also point you toward beginner-friendly machines when you visit. The beauty of pinball is that even as a beginner, you can still have a blast just keeping the ball in play and watching the lights flash.
We certainly do! We host regular leagues and competitive throughout the year, like the Space City Monthly Pinball Tournament and Bells & Chimes Women’s Pinball Tournament.League formats vary, but they typically run for several weeks with scheduled play nights. It’s a fantastic way to improve your skills, meet other players, and become part of Houston’s pinball community. Check our events page or ask our staff for details on the current league season.
Life’s too short for boring nights out. Swing by our taproom to discover why pinball never really went out of style. We’ll save you a machine.
