"Signage is up and finishing touches are going in at Walt’s Bar, the new arcade drink spot in Eagle Rock. The former plumbing shop has been fully converted into a retro place for cold beer and vintage pinball, and opening night is slated for Friday. Inside, the long room is now filled with a curving wooden bar and diner-style two-top tables near the front windows. There’s a wraparound patio too, with a ledge for holding drinks and mid-century restaurant stools to sit on. A light-up sign on one side of the building advertises cold beer — not to be confused with Highland Park’s Coldest Beer in Town sign — while hand-painted lettering at the front offers fine wines and hot dogs. No word yet on what hours will look like for Walt’s Bar following the Friday opening from 11 a.m. to 2 a.m., but ownership did share a shot of the pinball machines all lined up and ready for game play. Eater reached out for more details, but so far hasn’t heard back." - Farley Elliott
