## 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. If Jugglin' Joe on the roof sign drops the scoop, it'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.
