This was our first outing experiencing Salem nightlife and we had such a fun time 🙂 The ladies behind the bar were friendly and very helpful throughout our visit! We ordered drinks, food, and they held our boxes at the front while we gamed in the back. The pulled pork sliders brought their A-game and the BLT was unlike your typical sandwich! Game cards are easy to purchase and the game plays are long and don’t require a lot of credits. We purchased a $10 game card with 40 credits and played until close. Awesome place!

Service was fantastic on the surface, my friend group are bipoc and in oregon its kind of normal to experience discriminatiom of some sort or level. But over all they did their best to suck it up and be friendly. Food was good <3. The vibe overall could be nicer.

Fantastic Adult Arcade, highly recommend! From the games, to the drinks, you’re gonna have a BLAST with your friends. They have a hockey table, several pinball machines, Mario Kart, the list goes on. The selection of games they have here are perfect, you won’t be getting bored!

Its got a pretty good list of pinball machines and classics. They’ve recently swapped to a card style, which while conventional, I came for the quarter nostalgia. Prices have gone up a little over the years. I would recommend coming with a budget in mind. I’d say head north if you want a wider pinball / arcade option.

One of my favorite bars in Salem… Shout out to the incredibly stellar staff. They go out of their way for everybody & always provide respectful, kind, steady service. Great beer selection, awesome games, good deals, delicious food. Who wouldn’t want to have a beer then play some pinball, air hockey, arcade games, etc? I couldn’t ask for more, please give these guys support and business because they truly deserve it. Thanks for being a safe/cozy/comfy spot to hang!

I found my new favorite place in Salem! The Coin Jam is awesome. A full bar with great food. I got the lamb gyro tacos and my date got the chicken tacos. Really good and the staff was responsive and really nice. We spent 2.5 hrs in there and the time flew by. Many of the arcade games are either .50 or 1.00 for play credit. Quarters and not some random tokens which was awesome. I’m definitely coming back and encourage everyone to support this local establishment so we can keep awesome stuff like this around.

The food was amazing, the service was wonderful and the bathrooms were clean! What more can you ask for? Great way to spend an evening out playing retro video games.
Update review July 30, 2025
It’s really difficult to call this Coin Jam when they no longer use coins. They now use prepaid cards. My husband and I were disappointed and ended up leaving without playing any games . The whole point is feel the COINS AT COIN JAM!

We enjoy going to coin jam for the atmosphere and the great old time games and pinball. This is a must anytime of the week but especially on a Friday or Saturday night if you want to just relax get some good food drinks and play games. Love the fact the machines still take quarters!

The best spot in downtown. Not only do they have an amazing selection of arcade games & pinball, but they also have some of the best food! The Crispy pork belly tacos are phenomenal (definitely grab the extra 1 for a few bucks more) on top of an excellent selection of Ciders (2 Towns, Oh yeah!) As well many other solid choices in either can,bottle, or on tap! Staff is always on top of their game 11/10.

This place is awesome! They had several pin ball machines. They
also have at least a couple dozen vintage video games. All of the classics were there. The quality and condition of them were excellent. Almost like new. I had a great time. I didn’t try any food, maybe next time.
