Flipper McCoys
Flipper McCoys is a attraction in Oceanfront, Virginia Beach, best for rainy days, family game nights, teens and arcade fans.
Two blocks off the Boardwalk at 22nd Street, Flipper McCoys packs more than 150 arcade games — vintage pinball alongside current cabinets, pool tables, air hockey, and Dance Dance Revolution — into a Resort Strip storefront, most games running about a dollar a play. Its headline draw is Virginia's only Interactive Laser Tag Arena, a genuine point of local bragging rights alongside the wall of pinball machines that arcade enthusiasts specifically seek out.
