Business Description from the Web

This restaurant is a unique combination of a soda fountain, drug store, and gift shop. The building dates back to 1915, and is located on historic Route 66. It’s a great place and has wonderful food.

South Pasadena's Mission Street affords a stroll through the halcyon days of yore. The few blocks west of Fair Oaks Avenue are lined with pet stores, craft shops and tons of antiques.

This place could be so much fun but the soda fountain service kills the experience. The wait staff are slow and unfriendly. It takes forever to get any service and when you do it doesn't even come with a smile. There are better places in town for a shake. Try Soda Jerks up the street.

Pros

+ cool old fashion soda fountain

Cons

- horrible service, not so good food

I am a big ice cream fan and recently visited the Fair Oaks Pharmacy with my wife for the first time a few weeks ago. After an exciting review by local TV station rating the FOP as a blast from the past with an old fashion atmosphere and a full menu of delicious food and beverage choices.

I stopped by recently on a Sunday afternoon to have a phosphate (something I'd enjoyed there before). They were busy, but there was a vacant seat at the counter. I sat there... and sat there... and sat there. I looked around for a menu -- nothing posted on the wall and only one on the counter, beneath the elbow of the man sitting next to me.About ten minutes went by, and none of the four... more
