An incredible store and a museum. I could easily spen a couple of hours there. The prices I think were all pretty reasonable.The museum is located downstairs, dont miss out. I was walking by and just decided to peak in, wish I had more time. Will definitely return when I am in the area the next time.

Amazing place, interesting little knick knacks and a military surplus/museum underneath tii

The museum is below an antiques store. It has lots of things for collectors of all types. Although there were more military items from Germany during ww2 than the us it is still a neat place.

Big with lots of stuff, some reasonable prices...

Awesome shop. Lots of cool stuff, very very nice staff!

This place is really cool to check out

Very special place! Wonderful antiques and incredible WWII Museum.

Just when youve seen it all, you find more! Not as much stuff Id say necessarily from the U. S. side of things. But very interesting and fun none the less. Definitely worth the time!

Great WWII museum downstairs. You can spend hours here!

Great place to look for gifts, collectibles or one of a kind conversation piece. Antiques of all kinds & military antiques/memorabilia.

Excellent customer service,great antiques and a awesome WWII museum downstairs.

You can find almost everything here.

Very cool place

I dig this place. I stop in and have a check through about once a year. Even though I have seen I all its still cool to have look. They do have many Items for sale. Uniforms, books, and much more. And the museum is pretty cool.

What can i say I go almost every day with my friends and I love it. being a history buff I can spend hours in there. The people there know what they are doing and are always helpful when you need it. Some people there have great stories to tell so please stop by it is fun and there is cool things to find. My favorite place in Petaluma

Fantastic place to find old relics and some pristine pieces from ancient times. By that I mean some great stuff from the past 100 years. Many great electronics all over. Decent vinyl collection. Great selection of tools.The museum is the second half of the building, and it is great. Many cool pieces in the museum and displays. Also a lot of different options for getting military gear or other little things.

Such a great time. Fantastic museum. Great items to purchase.

Petaluma gem. I hope the place doesnt close down, theres lots of interesting stuff in there, and the basement is amazing!

There is a lot of awesome artifacts for sale and on display. Definitely worth a walk through if you are a history buff of the time period. I enjoyed it

Beautiful antiques, lots of choices of wild old stuff. Not much help... but the woman and man at the desk were friendly, straightforward, and willing to negotiate!

We were in town for the morning and looking for something fun to do after breakfast at the wishbone which is great by the way... so we went to the collective to look around in this was such a great shop! There were so many interesting things to look at and it brought back so many memories like the cool fishing lures.. definitely something for everyone and lots of different price ranges and the shopkeeper was such a pleasant older man... Looking forward to going back again

Very friendly staff. Very enjoyable experience

This place has many neat military antiques both for sale and on display! The museum is also quite detailed and interesting despite its very small size. I would definitely recommend this over the other military surplus store nearby in Vallejo and I plan on returning someday.

Great antiques of history upstairs...downstairs has lots of memorabilia of all military...also a section about Adolf Hitler during the war with history & artifacts

The ONLY reason this business doesnt get a fifth star from me is its very expensive, in some cases unreasonably so. Its essentially a consignment shop upstairs with a military themes consignment downstairs with a small museum showing off antiques from WW1 to Vietnam era. It is easy to lose track of time here and very fun to just browse, and the staff downstairs really make it a great experience. They have answers to questions, and thats always what to look for in a good business. Theres a Vietnam vet working there who would rather educate you than sell you something you dont necessarily need. All in all a very good store.

It even has a wee museam downstairs

There are a ton of great finds here for a wide variety of collectors. All of the consignment displays are very well organized and curated! Also, they are open 7 days a week unlike most stores in the area so its a great place to visit whenever youre in Petaluma!

Cant go wrong in here

Several stores and experiences in one. The top floor is a vast antiques shop with tons of stuff that will have you shouting OMG! Look at this! Wow, I had this as a kid! And, Holy cow, I always wanted one of these! The prices were OK. I doubt youre going to find any bargains, but if theres something youre looking for, theres a good chance they have it.Downstairs theres a small museum displaying field uniforms and equipment from WWII and WWI along with examples of toys and propaganda from the various nations. Theres also a little display about the Doolittle Raid with some artifacts of some of the crewmen. The museum is by donation and is worth the visit.Most of the floor-space of the downstairs is devoted to a military antiques store which is very nearly a museum in and of itself. Again, the prices are perfectly reasonable, but I didnt see any great bargains. (If youre in the market for a dozen Soviet WWII bayonets, this is the place you want to be.) Theres also a good military bookstore in the corner as well as a variety of historical ephemera for sale. If you have any interest in military history at all, youll probably have a difficult time getting out of there without buying something. I certain didnt. And Ill go back again soon.

Enjoyed checking out the basement war museum and military surplus store on a hot day visit to Petaluma. The guys downstairs running the space were friendly and interesting to talk to.

A very cool place to see in Petaluma.An antique shop full of wonders on the first floor, and a military museum in the basement.Check out the bunker in the museum!

I love this place!!! It has so many cool antiques and a WWII museum. They had a lot of emotional items. Everything was pretty reasonably priced as well.

Awesome antiques and military collectables. Theres a small but excellent museum as well. Good prices for really unusual and unique items.

I drove from Walnut Creek to visit this place after being told of its existence on it Facebook by a friend...The staff is all friendly and willing to work with you on purchases!!!Great people all around

Always something new and something for everyone! Great friendly staff. 😍

Amazing great stuff

Excellent place to visit, see the museum, small but well put together and look around at antiques, wife found a great album of Sargent Pepper.

If you are really into Military Stuff, this is a neat place to check out. My husband brought me there because he runs The American Armory museum in Fairfield California. Its downstairs and my hubby was down there for what seemed like an eternity! I stayed upstairs because they sell all kinds of antiques, and the prices are doable! My husband bought a bunch of old newspapers for a display, and I bought an adorable Betty Boop sign for my kitchen. Shes selling Boopsie Soda for 5 cents!

A ton of cool stuff!! Very organized.. Plan to spend a good while looking around

Staff is very knowledgeable. Im more impressed with their knowledge of history as well as memorabilia every time I go in.

This was a very interesting place, lots of things for sale from comic books to bullet casing. The mini war museum in the basement is charming and I recommend checking it out if youre in the area.

These guys are fair and down to earth about the stuff they have and the stuff people bring in. They checked out some ww1 and ww2 stuff I had and paid me more than I was expecting. Super nice guys too.

This place was phenomenal. So much to see

Really great antique spot I would say you have to visit.

I took my fiancé here when he came to visit my family in Petaluma. You can easily get lost for hours (in a good way!) in this museum and antique shop. Anyone vaguely interested in military memoribilia and history should pop in. Its worth it.

Not often i will buy items from this antique store. I can appreciate the fact that history is kept alive with an unbiased apporach.Very important for the skewed world we live in.

Cool little spot with a ton of military memorabilia tons of books patches of uniforms, if youve got an hour stop by and check it out!!

Fascinating. What a gem. So educational for my teenage daughter

Cool militaria shop. You dont see this kind of store everyday!

Memories are found here looking through vintage stuff. Found some old stamps bring back time spent mounting them.

Good antique store with a lot to pick from.

Best military museum Ive been to, great service, has almost everything I needed

Place says they close at 5:30. Closed at 5. Waisted too much gas to get down here

So amazing so many things to goo and ah at 🇺🇸

Outstanding collection of Antiques and collectibles. MILITARY museum is world class.

Great place for a variety of old war era inventory cool museum and knowledgeable staff

Love this place, huge selection, great museum, definitely a great place to visit

Awesome place to buy old stuff from coins to WWII items

This is not a surplus shop - they have a great selection of militaria (military antiques), mostly from WWI through Vietnam. Prices (for the most part) are fair, with a few bargains to be had. Worth the drive out to Petaluma if visiting San Francisco.

Surprised to find detailed dioramas of WWII scenes below the antiques shop

Lots of amazing stuff. The employee etiquette and attitude ruin the place.

Great Military collectors shop with a Museum, lots of History...

This small military museum is outstanding. Loving it is a rather strange adjective to give it five stars. It can be tough to show kids. Its a very adult museum. These guys are not cranks. Two things distinguish this museum from most others. 1) you are allowed to try and hold some of the small arms: M-1 rifles, Thompson and MP-40 submachine guns, etc. They are not in operating condition, but you can hold and get a sense of the heft of these things (not many places where you can do this). And you can talk to the guys. Not quite as good as going out into Nevada where you can sample the action of some of these at a gun range. 2) and why its rather adult is a small box box marked For adults only: its a small collection of photos of vets who survived face shots (wounds). If you think your kid cant handle this box, you can just see the rest of this museum. Both of these place this museum head and shoulders above most WWII museums. These vets do this not to glamorize WWII but cover wars realities. This was not a clean and easy war. Honor these guys and take a look.

Lots of great things to walk around and look at. A nice varied selection of antique-y items.

Very funky and LARGE antique shop! The museum collection below is impressive, as well as their militaria inventory, spanning from Pre WWI through the Cold War.

Fun place to come and play...

My heart is worth this..great day in this place

Great antiques and military items

Always love going to Military Antiquities

They have an amazing collection of WWII items in the basement. You can spend an hour down here easily.

Went here on a road trip, found this place on a whim. I was amazed at some of the stuff the gentleman had there. I just may come back whenever I make the trip up there again.

Cool military stuff and some old things

What a treasure filled with treasures!

Cool place have a ton of awesome history downstairs

Amazing collection and goodies for sale. Highly recommend

Best place in all of the bay area for reenacment gear

Money back guarantee of upstairs and the downstairs downstairs mostly all military and upstairs and if you cant find something there youre not looking

Amazing experience if into old military stuff

Very informative, my son really got a sense of how the war really was

Widest selection of antiques in Petaluma with an interesting military museum in the basement. Also, an overwhelming number of military surplus for sale.

Very cool pieces of history.

This place is super cool

A lot bigger than we expected. Lots to see and look at and the prices arent too crazy. We didnt buy anything, but now I know where to go for gifts for the history/war-buffs in the family.
