## The list

1. [Leatherby's Family Creamery](https://ourplayday.com/places/leatherbys-family-creamery-arden) (ice cream shop, Sacramento). A sit-down ice cream parlor where the kids' meal ends in a clown sundae, and a birthday party here is a local rite of passage.
2. [Freeport Bakery](https://ourplayday.com/places/freeport-bakery) (bakery, Sacramento). The Land Park bakery a lot of Sacramento kids get their birthday cakes from, with cookies and pastries in the case for a regular Tuesday. Cards only, no cash.
3. [Gunther's Ice Cream](https://ourplayday.com/places/gunthers-ice-cream) (ice cream shop, Sacramento). Sacramento's oldest ice cream parlor, making its own from a 1940s recipe, with kiddie cones and clown cones. Point out Jugglin' Joe on the roof sign: if he ever drops the scoop, the ice cream's free.
4. [Pushkin's Bakery](https://ourplayday.com/places/pushkins-bakery) (bakery, Sacramento). A gluten-free, dairy-free bakery, so the kid with the allergy gets to pick anything in the case for once. Cupcakes, cookies and sandwiches.
5. [Rick's Dessert Diner](https://ourplayday.com/places/ricks-dessert-diner) (café, Sacramento). A 1950s-style Midtown diner with glass cases full of cakes and pies made from scratch. Letting a kid pick one slice from that case is harder than it sounds.
6. [Vic's Ice Cream](https://ourplayday.com/places/vics-ice-cream) (ice cream shop, Sacramento). A Land Park soda fountain from 1947, reopened in 2026 by new local owners with the old recipes. There are sandwiches and soup too, so you can call it lunch.

## About this list

Every place here is a listing on Play Day, and a place is listed only when something positive is known about it for kids. Each listing carries the kid facts (high chairs, changing tables, kids' menus, wheelchair access) with the source and month of each. A list needs at least three places to exist.
