Parks in Kerns include Everett Community Garden (1988), Buckman Field (1920), and Oregon Park (1940). 28th Avenue's popular restaurant scene brings a great deal of business into the neighborhood. Tabla, Pambiche Cocina and Repostería Cubana, and Navarre are three notable restaurants of many which operate on this street. Screen Door, a restaurant which has been featured on the Food Channel and consistently has long waits for a table, is located on East Burnside and 23rd in the Kerns neighborhood. Sunshine Dairy, founded by Greek restaurateur John Karamanos in the mid-1930s, is located in the Kerns neighborhood on NE 21st Avenue and Oregon Streets. Sunshine Dairy also runs its sales and marketing out of the Fire Alarm Dispatch (FAD) building, which, in 1928 was constructed solely for use as a communications headquarters at NE 21st and Pacific Avenue.
