Pacific Pinball Museum - Museum in Alameda - 1510 Webster St, USA

I was eating across the street and noticed Pinball Museum sign. I'm always very curious, so I walked in and was blown away. More than what I imagined. Cashier explained everything in detail and broke down pricing and gave me a brief description and history of the pinball games history. Pricing is a great deal as it's unlimited play! Definitely would recommend to everyone. Very friendly staff Also the have several juke boxes free music choices as well.

This place is amazing and a real treasure! One entry fee for all-you-can-play pinball! The machines are in very good condition and each one features signage detailing the history and significance of the game. The non-profit Pacific Pinball Museum takes its mission seriously, educating the public about the art and sport of pinball. They also have awesome jukeboxes, free to play, with music from the decade matching each game room they are found in. Admission price is totally reasonable, they do offer a student/senior/teacher discount and I got my money's worth in the first hour of play! Personally I prefer to pay one price, then play for free, compared with paying for each game as I go. The city of Alameda is clean and safe, unlike neighboring Oakland, and there are places to eat nearby if you get hungry and take a break from playing pinball; the PPM gives you a wristband to leave and come back in on the same day. The staff is friendly and they obviously love what they do. I recommend setting aside several hours to enjoy all the various pinball tables and exhibits. They also have merch for sale. Admission is half price on Tuesdays. You cannot go wrong with the Pacific Pinball Museum because it is a TON of FUN!!!

5 rooms filled a huge variety of pinball machines from all different decades! You can play almost all of them. It's $22 for all day play for adults and its SO WORTH IT! My husband and I had so much fun trying all of the different games. It's so cool and they are so well preserved.

I've had friends recommend Pinball museums before, but this is the best! You can learn all about the historic machines and play many of them too, all for the price of admission. Better yet if you go on Tuesday, it's heavily discounted!! I spent about 3 hours playing here with my son and we found it tough to leave. They've got a ton of tables from 1930's to today along with some context around the machines that helps you understand how the whole industry has evolved. It's worth a stop if you're on a vacation, if you're a local, if if you're just passing through.

What a great experience my fiance and I had as we perused through the pinball museum. It is really cool how everything is Progressive and you can start from the oldest and go all the way to the newest pinball machine. The staff is very knowledgeable and helpful. We spoke with Damon, he helped us throughout the evening. For the price you can't beat it, everything is laid out very well.

Great retro experience for those of use who still remember our arcade days. All the games are on free play and range from the 50's to today. Great family fun.

Best place in Alameda...and you can quote me on that. Did I mention that all the machines and jukeboxes are on free play. Hello!!!!!!! This establishment is owned and operated by real people I am proud to call my friends. Over and above that...the employees and league staff will treat you like family and make you feel like coming back every time. Chris, Brianna, John and your team of experts deserve double props and a thousand thanks. Now you know why I rated this the #1 place to go in Alameda California. I should know. I am born and raised here.

I love this place. A history of pinball with some of the very original wooden box games on display. Every game comes with its own history card to read from the oldest to the newest. Some are iconic for the new features brought to pinball, and others are iconic for the subject matter (Aadams Family, Tron, Willy Wonka) but whatever brings you here, you will find your love of pinball being rekindled or light a spark in someone else's spirit for the game.
