The Pavillions

Great Little Shopping Center Tucked Away Off Of Fair Oaks Blvd
SITREP
I have been here several times now over the last few years for several different kinds of activities: for shopping, for coffee stops and for parties.
THE SETUP
Now that Insight Coffee has a shop over here, I find myself popping in here for a quick brew after I’ve stopped off to see my Dr. at the Kaiser Permanente just down a block or so, grab a pasty (maybe), but definitely to get a nice hot brew or a delicious iced tea (depending on the season or time of day).
THE LAYOUT
But besides INSIGHT COFFEE, there are so many other stores to enjoy as well that I find myself perusing — either by myself or with friends — which include:
* The very fancy clothing store JULIUS
* The very contemporary women’s clothing & accessory store MADAM BUTTERFLY
* And the delicious *food porn* cake & pastry shop SUSIECAKES
There’s also a rotation of cars that get stationed right at the entrance of the plaza — this go-​around there was a Fiat and a Range Rover that my sweet friend Bambi did a «Vanna White» for me with:
RACE FOR THE ARTS
I’ve also enjoyed attending some fundraisers here at Pavillions, including two «Race For The Arts» during 2 different years. Always a fun time with lots of different food, many varietals of wine, and some great entertainment.
THE LOWDOWN
The Pavillions is always a nice stop any day of the week, whether for simple grab of coffee, or a more elegant fund-​raising event.

These guys are super nice. Car wash is awesome and detailed.
«Then I saw her face! Now I’m a believer!» «Not a trace, of doubt in my mind!» «I’m in love, oooooooo I’m a believer I couldn’t leave her if I tried»
This song popped in to my mind because of this place.

IMO, the best car wash in Sac for overall value. Prices are not outrageous and the quality of work and customer service has been consistent every time I come in. All signs of great management/​ownership. If you live remotely in the area and need a car wash, bring your car here.

I’m increasing my rating based on the fact that Café Bernardo’s has opened. The center has more life, and is friendlier. Management seems to be trying to make the center better.

A Lovely Center with. very unique shops in a beautiful open air set up. I have been shopping here for many years. Just glad this gorgeous Center is still here for my shopping pleasure! We came to the center to visit our favorite gallery (Ventana) and while waiting for our purchase to be wrapped up popped into Williams Sonoma for a new sauté pan (and more !). After wards we did want a coffee (yah, we missed the old Starbucks) but we lucked out with comped Champagne from the gallery. Nice!
We Said hello to our friends at Hamiltons and enjoyed drooling over their amazing display of bling… Such Incredible diamonds and exquisite pieces!
I so Much enjoy this elegant, breezy plaza… I do agree that us local folk ought to support our businesses and Sactos special places MORE ! They need our patronage to continue on being there for us to visit and enjoy;)

Gosh it’s been a long time since I’ve been shopping here. So sad to find out that there is not a David Berkeley’s here anymore. I loved their chicken salad sandwich and they had awesome bread. Thank god they still have the Franco Ferrini shoe store. They still have William Sonoma and some Xmas shops. I think I need to patronize this place during Xmas. It would be sad to see this place close down. It is so beautiful!
