Gourmet Franks

199 Stanford Shoppng Ctr
Palo Alto, CA 94304

Randy F. writes: While strolling about on another fine sunny day in Stanford Shopping Center, we happened upon Gourmet Franks, adjacent to the Gap.  

Actually, what happened was more akin to this:

We were busily scurrying between a few stores that we wanted to hit…

J Crew

317 Stanford Shopping Center
Palo Alto, CA 94304

Christine M. writes: I don't think I've ever reviewed a clothing store.  For that matter, I don't particularly fancy myself a J-Crew kind of person.  And - let's be honest - I realize that writing a review for a store... at a mall... is hardly going to warrant any real…

Pottery Barn Kids

88 Stanford Shopping Center
Palo Alto, CA 94304

Kristina R. writes: The sign for this store is a silhouette of a kid with a lampshade on his head...I'm not lyin'!  Weird store.  Pottery Barn Kids is just what the name would imply...Pottery Barn stuff shrunken down to munchkin sizes and painted in blue and pink…

Carole Matteri, MD

1101 Welch Rd
Palo Alto, CA 94304

Jill K. writes: I will never ever go to see another gynecologist if I can help it! Dr. Matteri is the best. She's extremely sweet, friendly, and one of the most thorough doctors I've ever seen. She always remembers what's going on in my life and asks about my…

Body Shop

703 Stanford Shopping Ctr
Palo Alto, CA 94304

Benjamin M. writes: Soap soap soap... clean clean clean... yay yay yay. I like this place and wish more women thought to buy guy's cleaning things. The location is deceptively small, but they have a good selection of cleaning amenities. Great for presents, or to find…

Kiehl's

365 Stanford Shopping Center
Palo Alto, CA 94304

Brian D. writes: Kiehl's first store in the bay area - located in Stanford shopping center - is one of the best products I have come across for your face. They have a very wide selection and have products that cater to different skin types.  The products are all…

Sunken Diamond - Stanford Baseball

Nelson Road
Stanford, CA 94305

Geoff D. writes: Sunken Diamond is one of the world's great places to watch baseball.

For serious fans, the reserved seats along the infield are more spacious and closer to the action than you'll find at a pro ball game.  And though this appears to be an off-year,…

Vaden Health Center

866 Campus Dr
Stanford, CA 94305

Stacey C. writes: All I can about this place is THANK GOD for it. I constantly revel about the amazing service I get here. The doctors here are great - really accessible, friendly, and knowledgeable. Dr. Colloff and Patricia Blevins (NP) are my favorite people to see…

Frost Amphitheatre

Galvez Street and Campus Drive
Stanford, CA 94305

kim n. writes: Great little amphitheatre which I wish they'd use for more current concerts. Saw Big Bad Voodoo Daddy a few years back play before 4th of July. Pasking is a pain the way it's organized for events but it's quite a nice venue and is seemingly…

The Green Room Massage Therapy

440 Sherman Ave
Ste 104
Palo Alto, CA 94306

Wells Fargo at Old Stanford Farm

600 Quarry Rd.
Palo Alto, CA 94304

Da P. J. writes: Nothing to rave about, and nothing to complain about.

This branch is nice because it's located at the old Stanford barn. It's really spacious inside, so you don't feel like all the other customers can read over your shoulder.

That's the other thing:…

Pottery Barn

800 Stanford Shopping Center
Palo Alto, CA 94304

Lila T. writes: Yes, Pottery Barn is overpriced but I love their furniture and towels and random useless home decor items. The Stanford Shopping Center location is the largest Pottery Barn I've seen - it has two stories, big glass windows for lots of natural light…

Oak Creek Apartments

1600 Sand Hill Rd
Palo Alto, CA 94304

nate m. writes: My friends and I use the pool and hot tub here. AMAZING. Amazing!
The 7 leaf shamrock shape on the hot tube is legit and has a jet for 6 of the cover. Super sweet.
The pool is heated enough to not be freezing, but still awesome during the 90 degree…

Baby GAP

228 Stanford Shopping Center
Palo Alto, CA 94304

Ginni S. writes: For some reason, this Baby Gap feels so much cozier than the other Baby Gap stores.  It is in this store that I discovered that Baby Gap has thicker brown shopping bags instead of the standard Gap shopping bags.  Everything here is cute and adorable.…

Lucky Brand Jeans

83 Stanford Shoppng Ctr
Palo Alto, CA 94304

Elizabeth B. writes: Lucky jeans are a little pricey but well worth it. They'll last you as long as you stay the same size (I have a pair I've been wearing since high school and, although faded and broken in, they still look awesome enough to wear out with some flashy…

The Coach Store

660 Stanford Shoppng Ctr
Palo Alto, CA 94304

kim n. writes: Haha, Im surprised there's actually a men's section in a store like this. Although it's like one bag and a wallet. I gotta say there are some hideous looking bags here but there are a few decent ones too. $800 for one though? Yikes!

Andronico's Market

500 Stanford Shoppng Ctr
Palo Alto, CA 94304

Marni L. writes: I love Andronico's, every single one of them.  They have incredible prepared foods in the deli and bakery sections, a great assortment of cheeses, harder to find brands of whatever, gourmet items, and of course, the Adult Brownie (which is so true to…

5034 Mowry Ave
Fremont, CA 94536

Laurie S. writes: Wow! I get to be the first to review a Starbucks? If you look through my reviews, it almost appears as if I just travel around looking for new Starbucks locations.....well, I don't. I do look and map out the closest Starbucks to locations I'm going…

43540 Christy Street
Fremont, CA 94538

MiKA I. writes: I picked up some work out clothes from here this past weekend. Can't complain when I found a whole outfit for less than $30. So I'm stoked. This store is pretty nice, organized and the customer service rocks. It's fairly new and in a good location.…

drugstore.com

Fremont, CA 94538

Shari D. writes: I've had such fun browsing this site, which includes beauty.com, by the way... you can get everything from makeup to facial products to vitamins to personal products (and by this I mean vibrators and lubricants... ahem) from the privacy of your own…

Bay Street Coffee Company

4000 Bay Street Ste A
Fremont, CA 94538

Jill O. writes: A long time ago in a land far, far away I was in a serious relationship with the world's most lackluster white bread boy a girl could find. Bay Street cafe made his company bearable (don't ask...the sex wasn't even that good...lol).

We sat upon…

Panera Bread

43317 Christy Street
Fremont, CA 94538

katrina m. writes: I love Panera food! They should have one in Milpitas!

I first found out about Panera when I had clinicals at Washington Hospital since there is one next to it (I dont go to that location as much tho since its too far). I ordered a soup and sandwich…

Orchard Supply Hardware

5130 Mowry Ave
Fremont, CA 94538

Steven N. writes: I like the fact that this OSH isn't crowded on weekdays when I go in. The other side of that coin is that they don't have someone at the commercial services checkout counter fulltime and sometimes I have to wait in line to buy the things I need.

Target Stores

39201 Fremont Blvd
Fremont, CA 94538

Anna D. writes: The workers here are speedy.

I walked into this Target and wondered around a bit and saw they had some Yoplait yogurt, I gave my mom (the yogurt lover) a phone call and asked her if she wanted some yogurt.

Mom:  What flavors are there?
Me:  Strawberry,…

Korean Kitchen

4185 Cushing Pkwy
Fremont, CA 94538

Gyro Express

39407 Fremont Blvd
Fremont, CA 94538

Lea B. writes: Stopped in here for lunch today with my boyfriend after his co-workers enthusiastically recommended it for lunch.  They knew it would please both the meat eater and the veg/fish eater.  He got a gyro with some sort of meat (beef and lamb perhaps?)…

Devils Workshop

37356 Niles Blvd
Fremont, CA 94536

Rob M. writes: Possibly the oddest shop you'd find in Fremont but then it's in the Niles district so there you go.  How to describe?  Part biker paraphenalia, part head shop, part pronography store, part novelty store.  Not a place to take your religious friends or…

Hair Express

36408 Fremont Blvd
Fremont, CA 94536

Tien N. writes: If I could give this place 10 stars, I would!  Instead, I'll go with the max for now :)

Advanced Auto Repair

328 Mowry Ave
Fremont, CA 94536

Fizza Q. writes: This is the best place in Fremont.  The owner Henry is the most honest mechanic you will ever met.  I asked him to replace the timing chain on my Nissan altima and he told me not to waste my time and money as it wasn't going to break or cause any…

Back In Line Chiropractic

161 I St
