Fentons Creamery Restaurant Review, Oakland

Posted by admin, November 20th, 2008

Fentons Creamery Oakland Exterior

Fentons Creamery has been around since 1922. They produce their own ice cream and toppings batch by batch on site. They serve breakfast, sandwiches, burgers, salads, but the main draw is of course ice cream. Their creations are simply huge. Even the kid’s ice creams are huge.
Decor, Vibe - Classic ice cream fountain decor with booth seating lining the wall. Lots of families, college students, and big groups enjoying breakfast.

Picks:

Fentons Creamery Oakland Bacon Eggs

Bacon and Eggs with red potatoes ($3.95 Kids) was huge. Just think how big the regular sized one is. Quality of items was good.

Fentons Creamery Oakland Root Beer Float

Ice Cream Float ($2.50 Kids) with Vanilla ice cream and root beer. Massive amounts of ice cream. Hard to see any root beer in there.

Fentons Creamery Oakland Banana Split

Banana Split ($4.95 Kids) with any 3 scoops of ice cream, 3 toppings, and whipped cream was pretty big. The regular one is about 100% bigger. Good smooth ice cream and lots of toppings.

Pans:
None

Fentons Creamery is a classic place to go. They serve basic comfort food but specialize in huge ice cream creations. They are also known for a mean crab sandwich. Definitely go there if you are in need of an ice cream fix. They have a to go ice cream counter and ice cream cakes.
