Reviews
"I miss their old menu. But they still got good ice cream and good service."
"This vintage-style soda bar accomplishes its goal of bringing you back to the old days with its decor, sundaes, and phosphates. It doesn't go over the top trying to bring that feeling, either - it seems like it's just survived all this time and is still around. We tried the jalapeno grilled cheese, and it was about what I expected: American cheese and canned jalapenos on white bread, grilled on a panini maker or something similar. Not bad, but certainly not fancy by any means (and probably not worth the $8 or $10). I'd like to see them upgrade the ice cream brand, as they currently use Belfonte. The malt was very good, and the ice cream nachos were pretty good and an interesting idea with waffle chips and candy. I would go back and try some of the other items, like the cake shake."
"We came here after a tour of independence. We had learned that President Harry Truman worked here when he was 14 years old. How fun! A few families from our tour went as well. The person working did not greet us as we came in nor did she make us feel welcomed. We browsed the shelves of nostalgic candy and bottles of fancy soda pop while she waited on a previous customer. I placed my order for two ice cream cones. I didn't even notice they had phosphates on the menu. Missed opportunity. Orders were slowly filled and not even a smile or a friendly expression from the person working. We plan to come back to independence as it's not far from our home, but we will likely skip this place. The ice cream was good according to my children who ate it. Portions were what you would hope for for an almost $4 ice cream cone. I hope it was just an off day for the person working, but the ice cream wasn't the only thing cold in there."
"A historical landmark of Independence, MO. The inside reminds me of an old-school diner and has some old-fashioned candy and other merch for sale. The phosphate reminds me of the cream soda when I was younger. However, the banana split tasted like it was store-bought."
"This is a great place to visit while walking the Independence square! The ice cream was great & several different merchandise options ( including Polly's Pop )The prices were reasonable & the staff was great! A++"
