Peninsula Creamery Dairy Store

I used to work right around the corner and this was a weekly stop for me and many on my team. Now I make it a point to stop by for my regular whenever I'm near the area. Ambiance: 5 for its authentic, old school vibe. This isn't pretending to be an old diner, it is. A handful of indoor tables, a few outside, and picnic tables across the street. Service: 5 for the same woman who almost always is at the register in the mornings. Not to mention the food comes out quickly. Food: I only ever get the breakfast sandwich with sausage on sourdough, add avocado. 6/5 Plenty of each ingredient, the bread is toasted nicely so it doesn't get soggy even when I add some hot sauce.

Easily one of the best ice creams I have ever had. It's like an old fashioned style ice cream. You could tell that the texture is rich and creamy. This is good old style churned ice cream.Amazing flavor. Sweet and it tastes like Vanilla. The vanilla reminds me of Marianne's Ice Cream's Old Tyme Vanilla flavor. I don't have to go to Santa Cruz now. This place is an option. It's good to know I have both.The scoop of the ice cream is beautiful. Perfect presentation. The workers here are amazing. Perhaps it's the scooper they have too. Truly professionals at scooping ice cream. A beautifully scooped ice cream cones makes the experience so much better. I really like the old school diner and soda fountain shop vibe in the place. Very cozy and comforting. One of my favorite shops. It's like taking a trip back in time.

Ordered Gus' scramble and a coffee. Scramble was yummy, well flavored. It had quite a number of jalapeños. Tasted homey. Coffee was ok

Peninsual Creamery Dairy Store is an old school diner serving variety of breakfast, lunch, and dairy treats since 1936. Walking inside is a little like going back in time with its glowing neon sign, old-stye diner seating, and stainless steel backsplashes behind the counter. Nothing about the food is old though!Everything is fresh, delicious, and made with care. I stopped in for lunch and ordered a mushroom burger and macaroni salad. The mushroom burger was hot, tasty, and filled with fresh crunchy produce. It was a tasty and very filling, but the macaroni salad really stood out. It was filled with large firm noodles, mayonnaise, gree pepper, celery, parsley, eggs, carrots, sweet relish, onion, celery salt, and mustard. I think you can see from all the ingredients, they put a lot of effort into the dish. It was much better than anything I've had in recent memory. They also offer a variety of pies, ice cream, shakes, and sudaes for a cool treat during those hold palo alto summers. Well, after ordering I made a quick detour to the restroom, and my food was ready by the time I got back. That was during a fairly busy lunch period, so the staff was working hard to get those orders out. They also keep the restaurant clean, shelves stocked, and well organized. If you're reading this, I hope you already there, or on your way. It's a fun place to stop for breakfast, lunch, or an afternoon treat!

This is one of those cute little local town staples. I've been recommended this place a lot and finally got to come by today(Friday 2PM).It wasn't too busy, some locals eating and reading newspapers. I ordered a:- Reuben Sandwich $10 + $1 tax4/5 sandwich and I thought it was delicious but definitely not like a high quality sandwich. More like a super buttery, oily and generally unhealthy for you sandwich that you scarf down because there's so much delicious butter on it. Nonetheless, it's great for a quick meal.I then got a ice cream scoop of their caramel coffee, and I wished the coffee tasted was stronger. It was $5 + no tax?Anyways, this place it super retro and cute. The food is pretty basic, but not bad. Would I come here often, probably not. But watching a bunch of locals come and go with their Ice creamAnd milk shakes. I think it's a great ambience and place.

Cute little diner in downtown Palo Alto. Came here post shift and there were only a few people in there. You place your order at the counter and sit wherever is available. We both had a scramble, added some hot sauce & it hit the spot. Will definitely come back to try some ice cream or a burger sometime.

Delicious food and terrific service! Fast and friendly. Also, great decor as there is a ton of history in the dinner.

Awesome foodLots of history in this cornerSanford barn was the 1st location for the Peninsula Creamery plant and cow pastures.

Mannn this place was cool I really enjoyed the look and the customer service, not the biggest fan of their French dip but it was alright. I'd come back though to try more things

The service was very poor. The staff was very unfriendly, unprofessional and rude. While I was waiting for my order I noticed that the cooks, the front counter employee and the employee taking orders never said thank you to any of the customers. My milk shake was thin like milk and had no flavor. I will not return.
