The Linger Longer

Specialties

«Step back in time» to experience our authentic soda fountain — one of the few remaining. Continuing tradition, we’re in the original 100-​year-​old building with a beautiful tin ceiling. We still use the same soda fountain and back-​bar. Hand-​mixing fountain drinks with spigots and pumps allows patrons to experience old-​fashioned deliciousness. After enjoying dessert or a sandwich, browse our collection of over 2,000 Dr Pepper collectibles and antiques. It is the third largest public collection in the United States! Plan on having time to play in our extensive game room or relax in our new outdoor courtyard. And don’t forget to try the Green River!

Meet the Business Owner

Sharolyn W.

Business Owner

The owner/​manager, Sharolyn Wagner, is a real «Jerk»…Soda Jerk, that is! She and her husband Jay restored this 103 year-​old building with the beautiful tin ceiling. It is one of the few Soda Fountains in the state that uses the original spigots & pumps to create delicious old-​fashioned pop and ice cream treats! Hardy homemade sandwiches are also served anytime. You gotta try the Cherry Phosphate or a Green River. This is a must-​see destination — it houses the 2^nd largest display of Dr Pepper antiques in the world! And find out how tough you are on the Electric Shock Machine. After dark, look for the gargoyles on the top of the building!
