History

Established in 1997.

Shorty's was always about the arcade vibe, with emphasis on pinball since it was hard to find a (decent) machine to play in those days. Originally the game and bar area were the same, but over the years, we have added space dedicated just to pinball so the drinkers and the players have their own space. Of course you can do both here if you wish to do so. Even though the modifications to the space over time have brought some changes, as well as Belltown and the Seattle pinball landscape has changed a lot, Shorty's has always stayed the same and hopefully will do so for a long time.
