The Story
Stepping inside Fentons, the cheerful clatter and sweet perfume of vanilla instantly wrap you in a timeless, welcoming embrace. Mountains of hand-scooped ice cream in every imaginable flavor, piled high on cones and dripping with glorious sundae toppings, truly make every choice a happy dilemma. It's a quintessential stop where laughter echoes and everyone leaves with a sticky smile and a heart full of old-fashioned joy.

Have seating outside but no service. But they are more than accommodating with allowing you to just get take out option and sit outside. Plenty of good diner food options and loads of ice cream flavors. Be aware the scoop sizes are pretty large. I got a half ice cream sandwich by just getting a cookie and a scoop on top, because the normal ice cream sandwich has to scoops. The fries and onion rings were just ok, but the ranch dip was pretty good. My friends enjoyed their burgers, saying the gherkin was especially tasty l.

An all time Newman family favorite 😍 It's so cool being back in Oakland, and my kids going to all of the places I hung out at their age is so nostalgic. But Fenton's is still the place for all things ice cream, and then food is still delish 😋 so good. It's a forever staple in the Newman household...you go on and enjoy 😉 👍🏽🩷

Lunch on a Friday, wasn’t too crowded so we got to sit down immediately. Service was good. My fish and chips were excellent and of course, the Sundae was delicious!! Brother had Chili cheese dog that he enjoyed and wife had a grilled ham and cheese that she loved. By the time we made it to our Sundae (Hot toppers with both caramel and hot fudge) we were pretty full and could only manage half of it between 2 of us. I highly recommend Fentons Creamery!!

I’ve gone to fentons many times, and in the past it’s been fine. This evening, however, was a really miserable experience. The chairs there are uncomfortable—they always have been, it’s part of the experience. But it was just so noisy and crowded tonight it was overwhelming. The service was *terrible* and my party’s ice cream came out 20 minutes apart. Weird as hell. The burgers were fine, but not good. Ice cream was tasty but the experience was overwhelmed by the bad service.
