We stopped in for lunch after petting the Alpacas at Carolina Sunshine. The cool, relatively dark interior was a welcome change on a sunny warm day. The vintage decor gave us a lot to look at and talk about, and the oldies music almost got us singing a few times. Our party had an assortment of burgers and sandwiches, all of which got rave reviews. The Hot Chips were an extra special treat that leave even the best grocery store chips in the dust. We somehow managed to save room for dessert and ordered a couple of sundaes. I highly recommend the "cola sundae", which has Pepsi syrup added as a topping.

TJ Made the best limeade I've ever had & I'm a connoisseur! Good sandwich & Emily was kind enough to bring me a pickle spear too! They were actually closed, I hadn't realized but they fixed me up! They have egg creams authentically NY. It's an old pharmacy & soda counter in downtown pittsboro & very cute! All the servers are smiling & the place has great energy & I love the original tin ceiling has been saved. A fun place to bring a family & or a date. You can't go wrong here, they even have lasagna & spaghetti. I'll be back for the cherry smash & the great selection of desserts including turnovers. Definitely worth the trip!!

You can't be the old age atmosphere of this restaurant. It's like you're walking back in time into a old drugstore/ice cream parlor. And the staff couldn't be more friendly and helpful. I've had many dishes there over the years and they're all good. But tonight I had the Single Steve's Gambler, you can get a single double or triple. It's a 7 ounce skirt steak served sizzling on a skillet with grilled onions, bread and steak fries. It's based on the dish that used to be served at the Rathskeller in Chapel Hill. Perfectly cooked and delicious. It's definitely worth going off my diet once in a while. You should come try this place out.

Okay I 1,000% recommend this place. I mean who doesn't need a good old-fashioned soda shop that still makes egg creams and root beer floats and limeaides? Aside from that all of their food is cooked fresh. My pictures don't do it justice but I ordered a Philly cheesesteak and honestly it's one of the best I've ever had. The meat was super tender with onions and peppers and the cheese was mixed thoroughly through the meat so that you got the gooey saltiness of the provolone in every bite. Onion rings were fantastic. They have a pretty extensive menu mostly burgers dogs cooked many different ways they have some chicken sandwiches they have a full array of Blue Bell ice cream and they have a few menu items that are from the old ratskeller restaurant that was in chapel Hill, i.e. The infamous bowl of cheese lasagna. There's a lot of history to this building and the original aspect of the store. It used to be a pharmacy / soda shop and throughout the years has been many different things but Vicky the current owner and her husband who passed away a few years ago took it over 20 some years ago and I can tell you if you don't get there early for lunch you're probably not getting in. Again atmosphere was amazing food was very delicious and we will definitely be back. It's only about an hour drive from Greensboro and well worth a day trip.

Really cute establishment! I love the feel of the place and the grilled chicken sandwich and fried pickles were great.

Worth the drive to go enjoy this old apothecary and soda shop. Food is welcoming and homey and the service is usually very good. Love the fresh made lemonade, the foot long Hotdog and bowl of cheese (lasagna).

Great old fashioned soda shoppe with old time drinks like Chocolate Cokes. The decor is covered with interesting antiques and the service is over the top. Great place for a stop as the menu is plentiful and you can't go wrong with any selection.

What a fun place! Even though it was a busy place, we were greeted upon arrival and the server was extremely nice. The inside was set up like an old soda shop, super cute inside. It's dated, but that's what makes it so neat! They were playing some oldies music which made it even better! The food was delicious- some have said overpriced for what you got, but I felt like portions for the food and dessert were huge! No more expensive than anywhere else really. The desserts- unreal. One scoop of ice cream feeds 2 people easily. If you get a banana split, make sure you have more than 2 people at your table to eat it. Overall, food, ambiance, and service were outstanding! We will definitely be going back!

What a cute spot in Pittsboro! Came here after a hike on the way back to the triangle and it was so busy! Thankfully there was no wait though because I was hungry. It has a very diner like feel with the set up of an old school pharmacy with the soda fountains. I love pimento cheese so I decided to get the pimento cheeseburger and oh boy it was delicious! The burger was juicy and came with plenty of options to add for topping. The side it comes with are potato chips but you can upgrade them, which I did to sweet potato fries. I don't know why but the sweet potato fries were so incredible maybe the best I've had. Very crispy but fresh. S&T is also known for their ice cream. They have SO many flavors! Don't let the "scoops" servings deceive you, because the portions are humongous. My friend and I shared "1 scoop" and it was more like 4-5, we could barely finish it! The milkshakes also looked delicious and are served in the old style glasses. I know this place is famous for their banana splits but you may need 4+ people to help tackle those. Overall great spot and would recommend!
