What to expect
First, the thing that matters most, because Warsaw has several venues with confusingly similar names: this is NOT Pinball Station at Kolejowa 8A. The Polish Pinball Museum (Muzeum Flipperów Warszawa) is a separate, smaller institution in the basement of a residential building at Filtrowa 68 in Stara Ochota, a quiet interwar neighborhood south-west of the city center. The entrance is easy to miss: ring intercom 225, find staircase no. 2, and head down the steps. Double-check which address you are going to before you set out.
Inside, the museum says it keeps “over 40 pinball machines plus many other games and exhibits” (“ponad 40 flipperów oraz wiele innych gier i eksponatów”), a collection spanning machines from the 1970s to the present that the owners describe as one of the largest pinball collections in Poland. The rules follow the interactive-museum formula: nothing sits behind glass, no coins are needed, and the admission ticket covers unlimited play on the machines (“bilet wstępu daje możliwość korzystania z urządzeń bez ograniczeń”).
Beyond regular visits, the museum hosts corporate events, birthday parties, and team-building gatherings in its space, rents out pinball machines short- and long-term, and runs a small shop with pinball-themed gadgets.
Tips
- Call before you go (+48 698 636 979). As of August 2026, the official website publishes neither fixed opening hours nor a price list - this is a small, intimate operation, so confirm your visit and the current ticket price by phone or email (kontakt@muzeumflipperow.pl) before heading to Filtrowa.
- The entrance is hidden in an ordinary apartment building. Look for staircase no. 2, ring intercom 225, and go down the steps to the basement.
- Do not mix up the addresses. If you want the big hall with over 100 working machines and late Friday-Saturday hours, that is Pinball Station in the Wola district. Filtrowa 68 is the smaller, more intimate collection in Ochota.
- One ticket means unlimited play, so do not plan a fifteen-minute stop - pinball has a way of eating an afternoon.
