Sacramento's pinball options cluster in distinct zones across the metro. Downtown, you'll find a dedicated parlor in Old Sacramento's historic district. East Sacramento and Midtown add breweries and entertainment bars with smaller lineups.
The largest collections sit just outside city limits—Rocklin to the northeast and Auburn in the Sierra foothills. Davis, west of Sacramento near UC Davis, rounds out the options with brewery pinball.
