Leatherby’s Family Creamery, Sacramento CA
I heard good things about this place from friends who grew up in the area. The sundaes and treats are gigantic, but honestly I wasn’t impressed. The ice cream didn’t taste special and the toppings, although there was plenty of them, were generic and common. Good for Leatherby’s to keep the soda fountain alive, but I think that I’ll splurge on my sweet calories elsewhere. The service was young and lacking, and the experience was mundane and uneventful. I felt no joy during my visit which is unfortunate because that’s exactly was an old-school soda fountain should evoke. Kinda sad.

Now that’s a monstewr ice cream! Doesn’t look very good. Big is not always beautiful! Lol.
I’m sad you didn’t enjoy it. I’ve been meaning to get back to leatherbys.. perhaps it just really isn’t as good as I remember when I was a kid!
Lord have mercy, look at that monstrosity! I didn’t know they made them that big!
