If you really love ice cream , get the large. If you don't want to overload, get the petite. That size looks and feels like a large! Big Bang for your buck!

Try the Hot Toppers Sundae - Two scoops over a split bannana and your choice of hot fudge or hot caramel topping. Nom! (via @Foodspotting)

Robert Green

Try the Peach Pie A La Mode - Hot peach pie and a very large scoop of vanilla . Who needs lunch , let's skip straight to the dessert ! (via @Foodspotting)

Order the Black and Tan to share. The toasted almond ice cream is a specialty.

Vanessa Consul

Definitely not a place to take a baby (especially if the baby is sleeping) if there's a birthday in the house. Everyone usually participates in singing happy birthday! Gets LIVE!

Yvonne Barter

Deviled egg sandwich with olives added. I was not expecting black olives though. Still a tasty sandwich .

Rik Silva

The sandwiches are very good, but we always leave room for ice cream

Shaun Brackett

The Black and Tan sundae is fantabulous! Also great burgers and best cherry flavored cola ever!

Brandon Cain

Excellent service and large selection of flavors. Side note, extremely cold inside

Vivian Chung

Their crab melt and crab sandwich are yummy! Banana jr. is pretty large and enough for 4!

Matt McGunagle

Personal sundae - coffee cookie ice cream , caramel , whip cream , and Oreo cookies . You're welcome.

ᴡ Arias

Ice cream is good, but get a regular sundae . The speciality ones are HUGE.

Reggie Consolacion

Both Fenton's in the Bay Area are always so busy, but so worth visiting!

Fenton's trivia : featured in ending scene of Pixar / Disney movie "UP" when they sit on curb and count red and blue cars driving by. Ice Cream Sundae 's come in 2 sizes: XL and Mountain Range.

Travis C

If you like blueberries and cheesecake in your ice cream , this is the place to stop!

Keith Kay

I don't bother with the real food and go straight for the ice cream . It's hard enough to finish without a burger crowding your stomach!

Marivic Torres

Decadent sundaes ! The hot fudge and caramel sauces are soooo good.

Jay

Larissa is a very sweet and friendly and patient server. Ask for her. She will not steer you wrong. :)

Joyce

Skip the food here -- they're primarily known for their ice cream . Come here for dessert !

Harold Hoffman

Any of the regular Large sundaes can be ordered in Junior size and they still come with the same great taste

Timothy Snead

Ask for Amanda she is a great server. Very patient with the kids and good menu suggestions for those of us who can't decide.

Hard Rocker

Great place to eat. Good food. Friendly service .

Visit Vacaville

The food is great but you'll want to definitely try their world famous ice cream .

Jinna Pang

The coffee cookie dream is amazing. It has Oreos , cookie dough , and bits of chocolate in it.

Oh yeah, their burgers are awesome. Same with their crab salad sandwich . Always wish I had more than one stomach whenever I go there lol

Good food on high the side, but ice cream is to die for

No need to get anything larger than the petite size for ice cream ...unless you haven't eaten in a month

Hayden Padgett

Create your own sundae and enjoy the gluttony!

Kim Wong

Order Fenton's Crab Melt . So fresh and delicious.

The Ice Creams are Ginormous. Order a small with 2 or more flavors and there is still plenty to share with others :-)
