Basic ice cream, great service. Prices are very reasonable on food, so definitely coming back for that.

This place has been around a long time and has seen many iterations. In the past, this was a great spot and I expect it will be so again.

The food was not great. I don’t feel like they do anything well. We had the BLT that was fit to break a tooth on. The bacon the way it was served was like biting into a ceramic plate. We also had a cheeseburger which was just okay.

The weirdest part were these two guys who I guess were the owners? The were dressed kind of sloppy and not in the uniforms the rest of the staff were in. So it was kind of creepy to have them jumping into patrons personal space (one of them gave me a sweaty hug). I had no idea who these guys were so it was off putting.

All would have been okay if the food was good. But it wasn’t.

Delicious, affordable and a historical landmark in Palo Alto. Amazing sandwiches and the most affordable ice cream and milkshakes in the Bay Area.

Great ice-creams and nice service. Single cone means two big scoops - so generous!

The single cone comes with 2 scoops while the double cone comes with 4. I got the caramel cold brew flavor in a single cone, which was pretty sweet but the bits of chocolate are bittersweet so it somewhat balances out. I’d only get it if you’re okay with a sweeter flavor. It’s a very cute place!

Just go, it's great. Burgers are delicious and they have a classic turkey club, my favorite. No aioli, no fancy thick bread, no extra BS, just a perfect classic club sandwich. The ice-cream is amazing.

I was going to take a picture of the wonderful bacon cheeseburger, but I was so excited when I got it, that I forgot to take a picture. It was awesome, like Grandma made. Friendly service made it even more perfect.

Great hot dogs, not many places get a good toast on the dog and the bun, but this place does.

My husband and I came on a Thursday morning at 9am. There were a couple other customers sitting in the store, but not too busy. Even though it is a creamery they have a good variety of breakfast options served until 11am. We went with Gus’ scramble which is eggs, jalapeño, bacon, cheese, mushrooms, onion and avocado with choice of bread for toast which was toasted and spread with butter. The scramble was delicious; the jalapeños added a nice touch. The scramble was very flavorful, with the bacon, onion and avocado mixture adding to the taste. It tasted homey. The overall feel of the place is diner vibes. Coffee is just a huge jug of brewed coffee that you self serve from. Milk and half and half is in the mini fridge next to it, along with sugar on the table. Food/ service was reasonable/relatively quick

A neighborhood sandwich shop that delivers a great sandwich and famous milkshakes that may even take you back to the days when Peninsula Creamery delivered fresh milk and dairy to South Bay doorsteps.

Order and pay at the counter then find a seat and listen for your order to be called.

Be aware that they do not serve fries here, but do have a rack of chips to select from.
