    Korean BBQ Chicken wings
    Shawn B.

    Finally got a chance to go here; it has been on my list for over a year. THe stripes on the side of the building along with it being in uptown got my attention. This is really a no-frills bar far as ordering; you place the order at the bar and they bring it out to you. They ambiance sets you back in the time when pinball machines and arcades as a whole ruled as a source of entertainment. I will say the bartenders and servers were pretty nice. They have a pretty deep menu; lots of things to choose from. I had the Korean chicken wings; they were good and spicy, wish they had a little more flavor than just the sauce. The pinball games are definitely a fun way to take you down memory lane. I wish the games were a tad cheaper; they are like $1 to play so prepare for that but they have change machines and ATMs. Depending on the time of day you maybe able to park on the street but keep in mind this is uptown.

    Thankfully, once inside LITT you would have no idea it used to be Lyle's except maybe for the shape of the bar. It's kind of amusing this is called LITT when it's so dark inside; yeah, I know they mean the other kind of lit! They have many choices for getting to that, local beers and other beverages on tap and I spotted some THC drinks that were not on the menu. The general darkness is perfect for the massive array of pinball machines (they take quarters!) and also sets off the Halloween decorations. The booths are also sparkly copper colored so that makes them stand out. Good quality bar food all around, most of our party got some kind of sandwich and fries, so I made sure to steal a fry which was nice and crisp. My healthier eating son thought they were a bit too salty, the others didn't notice. I got a half order of nachos which was plenty! It's probably better to share these no matter which size you get. Nice fresh toppings and just a mild sinus clearing effect. I finished them later that night, didn't quite go as far as licking the queso off the paper, but it crossed my mind.

    We had the hot dogs, and actually they were pretty awesome! My boyfriend was like why would you get hot dogs?! And he was impressed with his, lol. Mine had sport peppers and was delicious! The gang shot tasted great I'd view it more as a drink than a shot. The mystery shot was fun and good. It was pink. I have not idea what was in it but that was a shot for sure vs the tang shot. I had a new drink called something about a mansion. It had gin in it and other components that I can't recall at the moment but it was very good and I had two.

    If you're into pinball, Litt is the place to be. Seriously, we LOVE it here because they always have the best new machines! It's impressive how consistently they update their lineup. Their food offerings are perfect for a quick snack between rounds, and the beer selection is solid (especially those budget-friendly $4.50 Hamm's pours). We always appreciate how quick and friendly the service is. It's a truly welcoming, family friendly, and exciting spot that we highly recommend!

    When you walk in, it's very dark. Very much like a gaming room. It's a very retro environment. I didn't try the food but their Bloody Mary is delicious! They have a bunch of beer and seltzer options to choose from. The staff were very sweet. Some pinball games were just a quarter or two but most of them cost $1 to play. But def worth a visit.

    I was surprised at his much gun I had here. The pinball machines were fun and unique. My favorite was the Pulp Fiction one. We did not have good here. However the service was amazing. 3 bartenders asked if we needed drinks. I'll definitely be back.

    I can only review the pinball and the root beer on draft. What a fun little place to stop at. We are in town for a few days on business and stoped in for something to do. Nice selection of pin ball machines. $1 per play and they have a few older ones .50 cents a play. It's a bar but I did see a few families with kids playing . I would bring my teens in to play for sure. It's a little dark inside but again it's a bar. But all and all it was clean .

    Five stars no question No kiss of death from me here They must stay open I give Fire & Nice a Four. Closed! I downgrade Lakes & Legends. Closed! You will be a cooler person for having made it here. Old school and new school pinball. Supposedly, there is this thing called tilt. Rock the machine to one side or the other based on the trajectory of the ball to keep it in play. I am not there yet. Not sure if I will ever be there. If you do it too much you get disqualified. My cousin is a total pinball wizard. I just play for fun. The beer selection is amazing! The staff is fast and friendly! Get here as soon as humanly possible!

    Macaroni and cheese hot dog
    Gale R.

    What a fun bar! Colorful paintings! So many pinball games! If you can't find it here, it doesn't exist! Menu is imaginative in bar. I had their classic macaroni and cheese hotdog. It could've been better because the macaroni and cheese was served at room temperature instead of hot. Otherwise, the hotdog was good. We also got the soft pretzels and again the cheese was sub optimal, and cold but the honey Mustard dip was delicious. Great selection of beers on tap! Service was good.

    I apologize that I didn't stay for any of the delicious drinks and food, I was strictly here for the pinball but glancing at their menu, they had such a plethora of great food options and specials. Plenty of great selections of hard Cider I've never heard of as well I regret not trying. The pinball game varieties are amazing! I finally! FINALLY got a chance to finally play the wrestling pinball game I've been waiting forever to play. Tons of old school pinball games. An Elton John and metallica pinball game which was really cool. Average games are 75 cents a game but they have some for 50 cents and a quarter. Great place to spend plenty of money and take the edge off the world around you unless you're a competitive pinball player.

    The vibe brought me back to my arcade days as a kid. After 7 they lower the light and turned the disco ball on. Good music. The hotdogs were good and they had a good selection of drinks. The amount for pinball machine was impressive. A very fun place.

    Stopped by Tilt during my business trip on Yelp's recommendation - what a great way to unwind! Loved the mix of retro and modern arcade games. The gourmet hot dogs hit the spot, and the pinball action was perfect for beating the winter chill. What stood out: Diverse game selection for all ages Surprisingly delicious fancy hot dogs Welcoming vibe despite our "mature" gaming skills Exactly the kind of quirky local gem Yelp excels at finding. 5 stars for fun!

    It was my first time going to Litt Pinball Bar with a friend and I fell in love. There is parking around the building even though the streets are busy. As you walk in the dimly lit building you are greeted by a bar and booths giving you the feel of a classic arcade. The food and beer were excellent as well as the service. You order at the bar and they bring you your food. The chicken wings were fantastic as well as the beer selection. They had all the classic pinball games as well as lots of modern ones and the cost to Price ranged from 0.50 to 1.00. This provided hours of fun and as the hours went on the competition increased. This spot is well worth checking out.

    I stopped by The Local for lunch on a Thursday afternoon and was seated right away with no wait…read more There was plenty of patio seating available, but I opted to sit inside--and I absolutely loved the atmosphere! The interior has that classic vintage pub feel with lots of character and natural light. There are tons of booths and different seating areas that could accommodate parties of all sizes. I especially liked the glass dividers between some of the booths, which give you a little extra privacy without making the space feel closed off. My booth also had coat hooks and easy access to outlets, which I appreciated. I could definitely see myself coming here for a working lunch. My server was incredibly friendly and helpful, especially as I was trying to figure out how to use a couple of rewards I had on my account. I specifically came in wanting to try the fish and chips. Their lunch menu offers smaller portions of several dishes from the dinner menu, including a fish and chips option for around $15. I really wanted to try the walleye, though, so I ended up ordering the full dinner portion for around $28. The fish was absolutely the star of the plate. The breading was fantastic--crunchy around the edges while still light and fluffy--and the fish inside practically melted in my mouth. The tartar sauce was also really good and paired perfectly with it. The sides, unfortunately, didn't impress me nearly as much. There were plenty of fries, but they were pretty average, and the coleslaw was mostly cabbage with a light dressing. It felt like it was missing some acidity or lime to give it a little more personality. For almost $30, I also expected the meal to be a bit more substantial. I left satisfied, but found myself hungry again a couple of hours later, so I'm not sure the dinner portion felt worth the price for me. If you're mainly curious about their fish and chips, I'd probably recommend trying the smaller lunch portion first rather than committing to the more expensive dinner version. Would I come back? Absolutely--the atmosphere, service, and location alone make The Local worth another visit, and I noticed several other dishes on the menu I'd be interested in trying. I just don't know that I'd order this particular meal again. The fish itself was excellent, but for me, the sides and overall value didn't quite match it.

I would say the menu is correct on spice scale. Our waiter recommended chipotle saying it would not be spicy. It was too spicy for me. I loved the maple bourbon wings and would get them again.
