Wichita’s Old Mill Tasty Shop is what you want in your lunch pail

Old soda fountains are like drive-in movie theaters: We’ve forgotten what makes them so special. And just like the moment when the opening credits finally come onto the screen as the sky darkens over a parking lot, the magic of every soda fountain lies in anticipation. 

While Fat City has tried to remind you of the joy of getting a chocolate malt from Fox’s Drug Store in Raytown, you may not have experienced a classically mixed soda from the Old Mill Tasty Shop (604 East Douglas) in Wichita.
