Editorial Review for Olmos Pharmacy – by Jennifer Wehunt
The Scene
Since 1938, this throwback to the "Pleasantville"-era of soda sipping has sat on the corner of McCullough and Hildebrand, with cherry cokes and thick, frosty malts running from its taps like a veritable spring of Americana. Although the food may not rank much higher than "You want fries with that?"-quality, there's something comforting about twirling on a bar stool at an aluminum-trimmed lunch counter, brow furrowed over the choice of what's better--grilled cheese with tomatoes or chicken salad.
The Food
If the stools are already stocked with regulars, grab a vinyl booth seat or stroll the pharmacy aisles and peruse the goods. The burgers and shakes are not to be missed. Don't forget: Olmos Pharmacy offers a double shot of medicine--handmade sandwiches and prescriptions filled.

Sit at the counter and watch your shake being made. And by all means get the shake--they're excellent. The pimento cheese sandwich was bland, but everything else was good. Stick to the basics and you can't go wrong.
Pros: charm, value
Cons: limited seating
