The Story
Doc's Soda Fountain has been serving Route 66 travelers since 1929. The original marble countertop, back bar, and soda fountain equipment remain in use, creating authentic treats the way they were made when Route 66 was new.
The shop maintains its vintage character with period décor, tile floors, and hand-dipped ice cream. It's a working time capsule of America's soda fountain era.
