Best Bank: Wells Fargo
25000 Blue Ravine Rd
Wells Fargo has always been one of the best banks in California,
and there are a lot of good reasons why. For starters, it has
ATM's all over Folsom and it's easy to get money. Their customer
service has always been top-notch and on-line options are always
a popular option. Wells Fargo is definitely a part of Folsom
history too, as its original Folsom office still stands on
Sutter Street today (though no longer a bank).
Best Family-Owned Business: Gold Miner Cafe
426 E Bidwell St
Gold Miner takes the cake when it comes to friendly staff, great
food, and a great atmosphere. Tucked away in a quaint little
shopping center on East Bidwell, walk in and you'll soon notice
how much they love Folsom, as evidence by all the custom
paintings. The meals are generous and prices quite reasonable.
Best Barber: Randy’s Barber
223 Persifer St
Randy is a step ahead of the other barbers in Folsom, and if
you're new to town and are looking for a great barber, look no
further, Randy's your man. Tucked away in the old Folsom area of
town on Persifer Street, stop by and tell them MyFolsom.Com sent
ya!
Best Grocery Store: Raley’s / Bel Air (tie)
2760 E. Bidwell St.
/ 715 E. Bidwell St
Perhaps surprising to some, but the best grocery stores in

has been in Folsom for some time now, it still maintains top
quality customer service, and an excellent selection of foods at
great prices. Meanwhile at Bel Air, one of the newest grocery
stores offers a first class shopping experience from the moment
you get out of your car.
