Time Zone Vintage our new home in San Juan Bautista, CA

Nestled in the picturesque hills of San Benito County, CA is a small city called San Juan Bautista with a population of less than 2,000. An historical city housing one of the oldest missions, San Juan Bautista built in 1797. Located in the heart of historical downtown 3rd street with their Annual festivals, parades and events is a 100+ year old building on the corner of 3rd and Washington streets called 'Plaza Market' 203 3rd Street. This is the new home of Time Zone Vintage, still alive and kicking since our start in Berkeley, CA back in 1997. We're one of the longest running vintage stores in the Bay area selling amazing vintage clothing, accessories and jewelry for both men and women.

Visiting this gem of a city is like going back in time! Dotted along 3rd street are many original buildings dating back to the early 1800-1900's. Throughout the year there's their Annual Easter Parade, Open Studio Art Tour, Indian Pow Wow, many Antique Car Shows, Annual BBQ Rib Cook-off/Arts & Crafts Festival, and one of the largest Annual Antique & Collectibles Fair where 3rd street is closed down, lined with many antique and food vendors on either side of the streets.

Their famous Vertigo Day, a tour of the mission San Juan Bautista. The tour is based on the 1958 American film noir psychological thriller film 'Vertigo' directed and produced by Alfred Hitchcock. Touring the famous scene staring James Stewart and Kim Novak in the tower of the old mission.

They end the year with their Annual Christmas 'Holiday of Lights Celebration & Parade'. A favorite for locals and tourists who line the sidewalks to witness and cheer on the old fashioned parade, featuring decorated floats and vintage cars decked out in lights and holly strolling down historical 3rd street. All the shops are open until 10pm with lots of food, fun and cheer!

Come on down and visit Time Zone Vintage! our days open Wed-Sun, 11am to 5pm. Afterwards have lunch or dinner at one their tasty restaurants, there's plenty to choose from. See you then!

  1. I have to say I absolutely loved going to this place the other night. The people that work at event locations here were trying to create an optimal dinner experience while making your choices their priority. I would definitely recommend this venue for any kind of fancy event.
