Vinyl is NOT dead. Far from it, actually. Northern California is home to quite a few notable record shops, but there’s one in particular that goes all out when it comes to keeping things vintage. Valley Vinyl & Pinball combines two of our favorite vintage items—vinyl records and pinball machines—and it’s just as amazing as it sounds. You could spend hours inside of this vinyl shop pretending it’s the 1980s, so be sure to stop by the next time you’re on the hunt for some old-fashioned entertainment.
Welcome to Vallejo Vinyl & Pinball! Located in the heart of downtown Vallejo, this charming little shop is keeping the retro culture of the 80s alive and well and it's impossible not to love it.
What started out at a tiny shop on Georgia St. has continued to grow over the years into one of the hippest hangouts in Vallejo. Born out of a love of music and pinball, Vallejo Vinyl is much more than a place to grab a new record or play a round of pinball. It's a treasured piece of the community.

You could spend hours perusing the massive selection of over 10,000 LPs.
Of course, the pinball machines are a huge draw as well. Boasting over a dozen classic pinball machines, you simply won't be able to resist playing a game or two. The shop will even begin offering a League Night every Tuesday starting on March 31st.
Vallejo Vinyl is also a beloved music venue that regularly hosts live performances. You can get an idea of upcoming shows on their website. From rock n' roll to live DJ sets, there's something for everyone.
Walking into this charming little shop really does feel like stepping into a time machine. It's not very often you come across businesses solely dedicated to vinyl and pinball anymore, never mind both things at once. It just goes to show that some forms of entertainment will never go out of style.
Whether you're looking to kill a few hours with a bag of quarters or purchase (or trade) vinyl records, Vallejo Vinyl & Pinball is a must-visit destination. After just one visit, it's bound to become your new favorite hangout destination.
