The Fruit Bowl
8767 E Waterloo Rd, Stockton, CA
Crema's Take
“This family-owned institution has been a Stockton landmark for over 75 years, blending a working farm stand with an in-house bakery and genuine hospitality that keeps regulars coming back. While coffee is just one part of their charm, you'll find thoughtfully crafted drinks alongside their legendary local produce, house-made quiches, and creamy milkshakes, all best enjoyed at their shady picnic tables where the whole community seems to gather. It's the kind of place where you go for coffee but stay for the peaches, the friendly faces, and the feeling of discovering something authentically local.”

Family-owned and run, the Fruit Bowl is the best! Friendly people, great local produce, on-site bakery, gelato, specialty items, and more. Excellent!
Legendary find if you are new to the 209! They are one of the first places you may pass if your driving from Stockton and wow best produce you can find anywhere in the world. Over 75 years of history that will help you understand the 209 better.
The peaches are incredible. Nice selection of local produce, jams and hot sauces. The staff could not have been nicer. We ate at their shady picnic tables. This will be a regular stop.
Love this spot! Great selection including some non typical choices of fresh produce. Also my taste buds were bathed and satisfied with a delicious, soda fountain style milkshake made with real ice cream and farm fresh local fruit providing the flavor. Not to be out done, the creamery / bakery boasts beautiful blue ribbon worthy, freshly baked pies! And the people working are so polite and engaging, as well as knowledgeable and personable. If you find yourself in their area it'll be worth the step.
This little place is such a great find, they have picnic tables to sit where you can enjoy in-house made sandwiches and their delicious quiche, they have ice creams and coffee to serve, They also have a produce shop that sells meat, fresh vegetables fruits and eggs and milk . Pleenty of parking and very friendly staff and people.
