Marvin’s Marvelous Mechanical Museum Finds New Home in West Bloomfield!

In a delightful twist of fate, the beloved Marvin’s Marvelous Mechanical Museum in Farmington Hills is being saved from extinction! This cherished arcade, known for its vibrant, nostalgia-soaked atmosphere, is relocating to a new space just a mile north, in West Bloomfield. Jeremy Yagoda, who took over the family business from his late father, Marvin Yagoda, has some exciting news to share.

Crisis Averted!

Back in February, the arcade faced an uncertain future when the Farmington Hills City Council greenlighted plans to demolish its building located on Orchard Lake Road near 14 Mile. Fans of the arcade were dismayed, expressing their objections passionately, but it seemed the odds were stacked against this beloved destination. Finding a new place that was both accessible and affordable posed a real challenge.

But hold onto your quarters—the arcades are not going anywhere! On Monday, Jeremy announced that the arcade has found a bigger and better location at the northeast corner of Maple in West Bloomfield Township. Phew! That’s some great news for fans of pinball and vintage games!

Mark Your Calendars!

It’s time to get ready for a shift! The current location will wrap up its last day of business on January 5. While there’s no official reopening date just yet, Jeremy expressed his hopes that it would be soon. He knows how much this quirky spot means to so many and is committed to getting it back up and running as quickly as possible.
