Old-Fashioned Soda Fountain

Bring back the good times !

AN AMERICAN INSTITUTION
LIVES AGAIN!

Text Box: Return to a bygone era when television, computers, and “fast food” were unheard-of, when the world was slower and folks savored simple pleasures – and the soda fountain was the social center for everybody! Such great memories!

Take a stool at

the marble front bar –

or choose a cozy table!

In the 1950’s there were over 100,000 soda fountains in the

United States; today there are only about 150 of them left.

At Catalpa Trading Company this beautiful, nostalgic institution

comes back to life.

All the old-fashioned treats!

ICE CREAM SODAS – The specialty of the soda fountain

MALTS AND MILKSHAKES – Made the old-fashioned way

PHOSPHATES, FOUNTAIN COKE AND ROOT BEER

BANANA SPLITS, SUNDAES AND FLOATS

We have learned all the old methods and are helping to preserve

the nearly-lost art of the “soda jerk”!

The red Coke dispenser dates

back to the 1930’s. The soda

fountain itself is a 1950’s

Come and bring your sweetie – or your children,

or your parents – or your grandparents, or your

grandchildren! You’re sure to have the time of your life!
