Pinball enthusiasts have a new hotspot on the Route 1 corridor.

miXt Food Hall in Brentwood, located at 3809 Rhode Island Ave., recently added three new Stern pinball machines to its collection. The machines are themed after “Jaws,” “Guardians of the Galaxy,” and the band Rush.

Although it is based on the 1975 film, the “Jaws” pinball machine is a highly sought-after new release among pinball enthusiasts.

While the selection is much smaller than the dozens of pinball machines that were until recently in a backroom arcade at Mom’s Organic Market in College Park, the new miXt machines are playable using a cashless payment system.

The nearest pinball arcade to the Route 1 corridor is at Players Club on 14th Street in D.C.
