The Nut Tree Plaza was originally opened in 1921 as a roadside fruit stand in Vacaville along Interstate 80 and grew to become one of the region's major entertainment complexes, offering a restaurant, bakery, toy shop, airport, and miniature railroad at its peak. Though the complex closed in 1996 and again in 2009, it has recently reopened as a renovated master-planned development, showcasing nearly 400,000 square feet of retail space, apartment and office units, a public event center, and a two-acre children's amusement center. Anchor stores include Saks Fifth Avenue Off 5th, Old Navy, and Michael's, with more than 25 dining options offered, including national chain favorites such as Buffalo Wild Wings, Chipotle, and Starbucks Coffee. Children's rides include the famed Nut Tree Railroad Engine #5, a charming children's carousel, and larger-than-life checkers and chess games for family play.
