Took my grand children for a treat. Food and service was good. Children got crayons and menus they could color. Sorry about the pictures I hadn't planned on posting originally.
BLT phenomenal! Sourdough buttered and toasted perfectly. Bacon slightly thick, but crispy. The lettuce was crisp, tomatoes were a smidge over ripened. Large portion sizes on everything I saw the wait staff bring out. Large selection of Icecream options, also generously served. Restaurant extremely crowded and loud. The wait staff is amazing; excellent knowledgeable of the menu, they work together (doesn’t matter who the assigned wait person is, they help out), good old fashioned customer service. Parking is horrible.
Great burgers (my husband ate the burger before I can take a photo), fries are crisp and the onion rings have a great tasting batter!!! Service is friendly and prompt! They deserve your gratitude; tip them in cash! Oh, we shared a petite ice cream, vanilla scoope with chocolate and caramel on the side (I ate it before I could take a photo 📸). You know how that goes; enjoy when you get around to visiting with them.
My family and I have been going here for a decade I can’t believe I hadn’t made a review on fentons before🤦🏻♂️. Best place for ice cream and you can dine in or walking and walk out with your scoop. Your kids will love it it’s worth a drive. Parking is a little difficult but if you don’t mind walking down the street there’s a public parking lot.
5 Stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had a great experience at Fentons Creamery in Piedmont! Along with their famous ice cream, we ordered the crab sandwich and the burger, and both were absolutely delicious. The crab sandwich was fresh and flavorful, and the burger was juicy and cooked just right. What really stood out was the warm and welcoming service — the host made us feel right at home. It’s amazing how after all these years, Fentons still maintains its iconic charm and high-quality food. A true Bay Area classic that never disappoints! Highly recommend for a casual meal or a nostalgic treat.
