Oakland, CA - As the holiday season arrives, Fentons Creamery in Oakland is embracing the festive spirit with a full lineup of seasonal favorites and in-store dining. Known for its rich history and dedication to quality, the creamery is inviting guests to enjoy handcrafted holiday ice cream treats, comforting meals, and special December-only offerings in a warm, family-friendly atmosphere.
Fentons Creamery has been a cherished East Bay landmark since 1894, and at the heart of its tradition is its legendary ice cream, made fresh on-site in small batches. Each 10-gallon batch is made with high-butterfat cream from California dairies and carefully sourced ingredients such as Madagascar vanilla, Guittard chocolate, and C&H pure cane sugar. The result is a dense, velvety product packed with flavor and texture that sets Fentons Creamery apart.
This December, ice cream lovers can indulge in a seasonal showstopper: the Peppermint Joy Myrtle Sundae. This festive treat combines chocolate and peppermint ice cream with hot fudge, toasted almonds, whipped cream, a cherry, and a peppermint bark garnish. Available in regular ($19.95) and junior ($15.95) sizes, the sundae also supports the local community, with 25% of proceeds being donated to the Solano and Alameda County food banks.
In addition to ice cream, Fentons Creamery is offering house-made holiday pies, ideal for seasonal celebrations or gifts. The selection includes Apple Pie and Pumpkin Pie at $24.95 each, and a rich, buttery Pecan Pie for $29.95. All pies are baked from scratch using time-tested recipes and are available for pre-order throughout the month.
On the savory side, the Oakland ice cream shop's kitchen is also serving up comforting classics to match the season. The homemade mac n cheese special offers a hearty option, served with grilled garlic bread and topped with a choice of steak, grilled chicken, or fried chicken for $15.95. Guests can also choose to add buffalo or pesto sauce for a flavorful twist.
Rounding out the December menu is the return of the Winter Sandwich, a seasonal favorite that blends Boar's Head ham, Swiss cheese, and cranberry sauce on toasted ciabatta. Served with a side of crispy onion rings, this savory combination is priced at $18.94 and brings a festive touch to Fentons Creamery's classic sandwich lineup.
