Pleasanton Food scene

Looking for great coffee? Try Inklings! The decor is reminiscent of a British tavern. The Almond Lavender Latte is my favorite!

For Mediterranean food, Lokanta is my favorite! Try the appetizer sampler platter for a satisfying selection of hummus, zucchini cakes, grape leave wraps, olives, feta cheese, and pita bread.

For a romantic or fun evening, grab a glass of wine and a cheese tray or appetizer at the Cellar Door. Enjoy the weekend live music in a great ambiance.

Everybody in Pleasanton lines up for a soft-serve ice cream at the dairy. It’s just ice-cream, but it’s a local tradition!
