"The original Fentons opened in Oakland in 1894 but you’ll still get a sweet sense of nostalgia at the Vacaville outpost. It’s a perfect stop for a mid-power shopping pick-me-up: choose from a bevy of ice cream flavors made with California’s own Guittard Chocolate and C&H Sugar. Plus there’s a long list of savory options including the popular crab sandwich, salads, hot dogs, burgers, and more. The Vacaville location is inside the Nut Tree Plaza just across I-80 from the sprawling outlet mall." - Lauren Saria, Becky Duffett
