Where to Play

I’ve been to three great places for pinball in the Bay Area:

  1. Alameda Pinball Museum (25+ Solid States)
  2. Free Gold Watch (50+ Solid States)
  3. Flipper Room (25+ Solid States)

After these, try movie theaters to play new Stern machines. Bowling alleys often have pins. There are a few Golfland/Arcades still around. Beyond that, try give your beer money to bars that support pinball. To find more locations in the Bay Area use: http://pinballmap.com/bayarea — they also have an app for your iOS or Android.
