Step through the doors for a journey back in time. Expansive marble counters, display cabinets filled with porcelain decanters, and a antique organ with a resonating sound. A truly unique experience. Regrettably with only 1 server and 1 busboy be prepared to wait.
We enjoyed reading about the soda fountains and seeing the ornate soda fountains and decor. The staff were very welcoming and provided great service. The ice cream sundaes were delicious!
Such a gem of a store, you need to visit if you’re close by! It’s decked out with Christmas decorations already and the staff is super friendly, plus the whole second half is a museum with old music machines in full working order and candy displays. Genuine soda streams built-in to the back of the counter. Plus the ice cream is delicious! The hot fudge is known near and far ✨
Went for lunch which was outstanding. There breaded tenderloin was one of the best I’ve ever eaten. There french fries which are hand cut potatoes and were fried perfectly. The service wasn’t the greatest I’ve ever had but wasn’t bad. The atmosphere was great and nostalgic. The price was not bad. After lunch we took a walk around the downtown which was nice. We returned and I had a banana split which was the best I can remember having. It is on our list as a place we want to return to.
Zaharakos is one of the most popular and iconic ice cream polars and in the midwest. A historical landmark with a collection of traditional ice cream flavors such as chocolate, vanilla, varieties of fruits and friendly staff.
I really enjoyed my visit even with the slow service.
A fun place to stop.
We stopped on our way to Indy and had lunch. It's a neat place with the antiques. The food was good but they were overwhelmed. Service was slow.
Wow this place is really cool and everybody should come here at least once! It's set back in the 1900s but fancy 1900s ice cream parlor. They have the original pieces of equipment used in the parlor from when it began. And they also have a self playing orchestra which not only looks Awesome but sounds Amazing. Oh yeah and they have good ice cream as well 😜
