Fentons Creamery
Best Ice Cream Parlor in Oakland · CA
Sundaes on Piedmont Avenue since 1894
Fentons Creamery has scooped house-made ice cream on Oakland's Piedmont Avenue since 1894, a bustling parlor famous for towering sundaes and its signature Black & Tan — a toasted-almond-and-caramel creation whose flavor the Fenton family invented. It earned a new generation of fans as a setting in Pixar's 'Up.'
More than 125 years on, Fentons remains a raucous, all-ages Oakland institution where the crab-salad-and-sundae lunch and the enormous banana splits are a rite of Bay Area childhood.
