Daves Pinball Palace: 100 Oaks Mall

Daves Pinball Palace was an entertainment venue located within the 100 Oaks Mall at 719 Thompson Lane in Nashville, Tennessee. While the specific operational dates, the range of pinball machines and other attractions it offered, and its direct impact on the local community are not extensively documented in available historical records, its presence contributed to the recreational landscape of the 100 Oaks Mall. The 100 Oaks Mall itself has a significant history in Nashville, originally opening on October 27, 1967, and undergoing several transformations over the decades, including periods of decline and redevelopment. It served as an important retail and social hub for the Nashville community for many years, and Daves Pinball Palace would have operated within one of the mall’s active retail phases.
