My family and I adore this soda shop. I have a food allergy that makes it difficult to find sodas that I can have. The soda I ordered came with lime slices, which I didn't realize. I was just going to let someone else have mine, but they offered to make a new one without the lime slices. There seems to be a loft type area in the back that has board games and whatnot. People were back there enjoying themselves, so I didn't go back there. I didn't want to bother them. I'll try to check that part out when there aren't so many people The atmosphere is wonderful and the staff are so friendly. We are glad to have a soda shop back at that location and look forward to returning time and again. Note: The shop looks empty, but I purposely avoided getting other people in the shots as much as possible because they might not want to be in them and some of the people were children.

We had the best time scooting into this sweet little shop in downtown Leavenworth. I had the Lavender Lemonade soda and it was incredibly refreshing and delicious! I also took a chance on the S’mores croissant, and it was soo good! The chocolate and marshmallows were melted to perfection! This was an absolute favorite with our small group of peeps, and it will now be a tradition anytime I visit this unique little shop! The service was impeccable and the people were so nice. The atmosphere was great and included puzzles, games, and all sorts of things to guarantee a complete immersion while sipping on sodas and sharing conversations. What a wonderful little adventure we had exploring this establishment! I highly recommend…and when you go, don’t forget the S’mores croissant and take some time to soak it all in, enjoying the interruption of your normally hectic life.

Edit: Came back today because my hubby was craving a soda. What we got today: 1.) Cherry Dr Pepper $4.50 Still as good as yesterday. 2.) Golden Hour w/ Mango Boba $6.25 yum 😋 3.) Classic Charcuterie Nachos $15.99 Kettle chips with cheese, prosciutto, salami, apple & greens. So you get the crunch from the kettle chips and salt from cheese and meats, and the tang from the apples and dressing of the greens. We were recommended to try this spot by the owner of Season 7 Boutique because I was looking for a great drink spot. We walked two blocks down Delaware and found it easily. This place reminded me of old school places I went to as a child in San Francisco Blum’s off Geary Blvd. The two young men who served us were very friendly and knowledgeable. 👏🏼 What we ordered: 1.) Cherry Dr. Pepper $4.00 My hubby said it was bubbly, cherry, sweet and not watered down. He loved it 2.) Golden Hour with Mango popping Boba $4.75 this was a lighter version of a dream sickle. Combination of bubbly, citrus, cream goodness. So good we are going back today for round 2 🤪

Prepare your heart to step into the vintage soda shop of your dreams! I did not anticipate being overwhelmed by the beauty of this clean and well-maintained gem. From the expansive bar seating to the stained-glass on the ceiling to the checkered floor and the loft seating, I couldn't get enough! The minute I walked in, I was greeted by excited baristas, who helped guide me to the menu and set the ambiance of the place with their kindness. I completely felt welcome to stay for a while, which is great because reading at the bar for hours while sipping on a Missouri River Blue and enjoying a creamy Oreo milkshake was a blast! Both beverages were delicious. The milkshake was rich and made with care, and the Missouri River Blue was gone before I realized I'd sipped it away! I can't recommend this place enough. It's going to be my escape place every weekend I'm out in Leavenworth!
