According to a recent report in Eater, Ohio-based Rise Brands will bring two of its concepts to the former upcoming spot for St. Elmo Public Market at 4329 South Congress Avenue space in East Congress.
“Opening in the South Congress space will be locations of Ohio-based company Rise Brands’s activity and gaming venue Pins Mechanical and bar and arcade 16-Bit,” the report states.
“The Austin space will have 24 duckpin bowling lanes, 30+ pinball machines, and 40+ arcade games like Frogger and NBA Jam. There will be a total of four bars, a courtyard, and two mezzanines for private events. Cocktails typically include classics and house drinks such as the s’mores old fashioned and the Chai Me a River with cold brew and rumchata, as well as wines and beers.”
A Rise Brands representative told Eater that “Austin aligns perfectly with the creative nature of the Pins brand” and that, with construction staring this year, sights are set for a 2024 debut.
“At its inception, Rise was built around creativity,” the brand’s official website states. “It flows through everything we do – from the grandest visions to the smallest details that sometimes go unseen. At Rise, we bring people together to inspire fun in spaces built to thoroughly entertain our guests. Most importantly, our team develops brands we enjoy and take great pride in everyday.”
