We were in Lima for a cross country meet. After we "dined" at, naturally, Kewpee's, I, naturally,…read moresearched yelp for "arcade." Cartridge Gaming was a fantastic and unexpected find. This business started out by selling old and used cartridges for almost every (major) gaming console ever made. The owner has an enormous, almost unbelievable, selection of games you played, games you wish you had played, and some games that you've probably never heard of. What a trip down memory lane. Yeah, the owner had a nice little business selling game an outstanding variety of game console cartridges...and then he got bit by the pinball bug. So, in his store, he has 24 pinball machines, three cabaret style machines (Galaga, Centipede, Ms.Pac Man), two multigame machines (an iCade 60 gamer, and another that features about 100? vertical scrolling Japanese "maniac shooters..." if those are your thing. There's a Crazy Taxi game, too). The pins range in price from 12.5 cents per play (two credits for a quarter, arithmetic wiz), to a buck per play. Here's the key...every game that I played was in good or excellent condition! What an cool variety of games, he has. Newest game? Jurassic Park (2019) by Stern. Flagship game? Dialed In (2017) Limited Edition by Jersey Jack; that's a $9000 dollar machine. Mike P's favorite game? FirePower (1980) by Williams...25 cents per play...just like the machine at Little Cesar's Pizza on Suder Avenue...back in 1980. For an added bonus, ask him to see the collection of video game consoles and microcomputer stuff that he has in his back room. Another trip down memory lane. When in Lima, stop by...after Kewpee's.

My wife and I went here and tried most of the wines. There's a unique flavor and brewing strategy…read moreto the wines that I have not encountered before - I recommend trying the dechaunac wine. Great smell and flavor, but more sweet than you expect. The beer was unexpectedly better than on point- try the red. It tastes "award winning" in my opinion. October fest and hopped ales were very good as well, harkening back to the glory days when the best ipa's came out. Also: wine slushies! Try the cranberry wine - we bought a bunch for thanksgiving and December. Really nice people and great conversation too.

Mind blown.. Allen County Museum & historical society…read more Of the many county and village museums I've seen in my day, Allen County was really a nice place to visit. They felt like a micro version of Ohio history connection, and daresay.... maybe even better in my opinion, if it were not just segmented to the area itself! You walk in, usually an old person is there to greet you at the front, the exhibits are free, except for one of the victorian houses next to the museum you can tour for a small fee. (We declined this trip) The museum has a lot of excellent exhibits... starting with the founders, their original covered wagon from the 1700s, and other locally celebrated families and events. EXCELLENT curation! The odd, but fascinating: *Someone's doll house replica of George Washington's Mount Vernon -- completed with furnishings, and figures (Takes up an entire room). *John Dillenger exhibit with death mask casting, and his original jail cell in Allen County... WITH a wax replicate of John. *A train -- INSIDE the museum *A fine collection of wagon/hearses *Restored animatronics with taxidermied animals from the late 1800's. Reminded me of the old nickelodeons that amazed and wow'd people from back in the day. The restoration was really amazing. I could go on, but I really hope you'd experience this gem of Northwest OH for yourself! It's really worth the time to stop and visit! Makes the historian in me all giddy just thinking about it!

Given Lima's modest size and relative lack of wealth, the Allen County Museum is impressively large…read moreand pretty amazing. It has enough oddities that it's worth a detour if you're heading up or down I-75 and have an hour or two to spare. I'll acknowledge that the sprawling space is largely filled with a lot of homespun local history that may not interest everyone: models of local grand homes that were demolished long ago, various old furnishings and carriages going back to Ohio's frontier days, many exhibits devoted to Lima's one-time prominence in locomotive manufacturing and as a major railroad hub, and a wall honoring LIma's famous and not-so-famour (Phyllis Diller, Hugh Downs, and a bunch of folks I'd never heard of). But there are at least a few exhibits that warrant the detour: First and foremost are the fascinating, bizarre, and rather macabre animated taxidermy spectacles created by local shoe salesman James Grosjean in the late 1800s and early 1900s. One is a ferris wheel with rotating animals but the craziest is the Noah's Ark exhibit with a recorded biblical narrative and music, the latter probably from the 1970s. The attendant on duty will likely be glad to start these machines up for you, if they're currently in working order. Second, there's a decent section devoted to John Dillinger's confinement in the local jail and his jailbreak, which was accomplished by the murder of the sheriff. Third, there's a Lima history exhibit with model trains, much like the excellent "Cincinnati in Motion" exhibit at the Cincinnati Museum Center, except that this Lima exhibit is about a tenth of the size. N.B. Apparently due to the sour economy, the museum's hours are limited. On the Tuesday we were there, it did not open until 1pm.

The attendent literally watched me put over $100 on top of other credits and the machine never credited them showed but one spin later gave me the last bet option while still showing $19 of credits!!!! This was on top of eating a $50 and a $20. I wrote my name and number down on a pad and was told the owner would get with me tom. No call all day show up at the arcade to be told the machine is fine and people were playing it all day and winning!!! I asked for a print out which all these games log and was told that these machines don't!!! It's bad enough when your luck is down but when a machine eats right at $200 and the owners won't make it right or do the right thing it's pretty slimy!!! My advice don't go at all and if you do don't put more than $20 at a time!!! That way when they deny the $20 they'll prob watch you put in and not get credited! You wont be out more than $20 It's bad when you have to deal with people of this caliber!!!! There's a reason they don't have a yelp revue until now I had to add it for them!!! I hope this helps out the next person it's a $200 lesson to me!!! I'll go to a more credible establishment after this!!!!
