Choose from an excellent selection of frappes, espresso drinks, loose leaf teas, and delicious pastries.

Every April, Stockton presents a very tasty celebration with the Stockton Asparagus Festival. The three-day multi-event has been held every year for the past 27 years, and continues to get more popular. Enjoy over 100 arts and crafts vendors as well as plenty of food and product vendors. This is the place where the world-famous Deep Fried Asparagus Eating Championship proudly takes place. This is the largest food festival in the Central Valley, and it also holds the distinction of being the state's largest charitable event.

Play it cool by putting the whole family on ice—as in the ice you'll be skating on at the Oak Park Ice Arena! This classic facility has been offering great family ice skating fun since it first opened its doors back in 1970. Since then, the rink has made several improvements that make your time on the ice as fun as it can be. The surface of the ice is 85 x 200 feet and the facility also has seating for those family members who would rather watch the fun than put on a pair of skates.
