Decorated in the style of old-fashioned ice cream parlors, The Soda Fountain’s wares are equally nostalgic. Of course, for families, it’s all about the sundaes, ice cream sodas, malted milks, milkshakes, phosphates, and egg creams. For a nice afternoon (adult) pick-me-up, try the Tan & Tan — coffee soda with coffee ice cream.

As far as “real food,” the extensive menus offer pizza, hot dogs nine ways, a bunch of sandwiches, and salads. On the kids’ menu, five choices are $3.95, each with a beverage, fruit or fries, and gummi pizza — what a bargain!
