 | | At this shop, the historic soda fountain dates from the 1920s, postcards depicting Old Pasadena decorate the walls, and proprietor Kevin McCafferty, a third-generation soda jerk, serves perfect ice cream sodas with a glass of "two cents plain," the original term for extra soda water on the side. |
 | | Their shop, located across from Bakersfield High School, looks like it did in the '30s, and they still mix and froth sodas with the hard spray of the soda arm. |
 | | You'll recognize the antique arcade games, countless balloons, and menu items such as sodas and shakes; the Zoo, a sundae that serves 10; and the Pig's Trough, a double banana split for more "modest" appetites. |
