She narrates like a news anchor lol

At the end she forgot: “Now back to Tom for the weather.”

Can you imagine the grand-son now clearly over 60, walking into work everyday with memories of his Grandpa and Father when he was a kid👌😊

This needs to stay going, I feel like it’s so rare today to see people watching someone do something like this and take it in and enjoy watching

You know the shop is old when the grandson himself looks like grandfather now.

I love that this shop is still in business after 100 years! What an achievement.

97-year-old NYC diner still serves their coke the old fashioned way

Is it me or does every New York City Restraunt feels like a Novelty with things like the 99 cent pizza

I really like that she isn’t screaming at the camera and acting over excited. The narration is calm and to the point, it’s nice

When the title says “coca-cola the old fashioned way” and my first thought is “with cocaine?”

97-Year-Old NYC Diner Still Serves Their Coke the Old Fashioned Way

I’m going full schizo if I see a video about this damn diner one more time

this feels like a feature story in a morning show and you're watching it while having breakfast or drinking coffee and it just makes your morning a little bit better

Her son sticking his face in the cup was the cutest thing ever 😩

So beautiful how much of the original shop was able to stay in such good condition

They make really good pancakes too. You can go in for brunch and the waiters are all so nice. It really does feel like a mom and pop shop, it’s one of the few left

Since the 70s means he’s seen NY clean up then get dirty again. What a time to be alive.

Fun fact: 50 Cent’s “Candy Shop” was inspired by this place

whats harder than this studio ghibli food opinion that got u like gmail percs

this might be apples best feature stubio ghibli food looks so burger that erupts

“Fresh coca-cola” like if he was squeezing oranges 😂 what a time to be alive

Out of all the craziness that's going on, we must protect this place at all costs.

My hometown had a pharmacy that mixed Cokes that way. We called them fountain Cokes. To this day, no cola has ever tasted better!

Such a beautiful thing to be able to experience. Can never take those kind of places for granted.

In the '60's my mom used to get coca cola syrup at the local pharmacy. She mixed it up without the bubbles when we were sick.

Need more places with this vibe! 💕

I used to live on that block! That place is super popular and it’s like going back in time🥰

The song is called "Moonlight Serenade". So beautiful.

Imagine going out for a date and only spending 30 cents

When I saw this I was thinking the REAL old fashion way with a little of that sniff sniff powder lol.

Love it! In Bluefield VA we have an original drugstore with lunch counter and syrup seltzer mixed cokes! A wonderful step into the past, indeed!

Imagine not renovating your place long enough so it actually becomes a feature 🤣❤️❤️❤️

Damn this video gave me a cozy vibe, like im back to my childhood or something, her narration and that shop too. Makes its all feel like deja vu.

This is so COOL! It's like a well preserved time capsule from the past. What a great way to preserve a little piece of American history. (:

I love her voices and all the feels that comes out.

I love it!!! Because I remember these luncheonettes!

Going to that shop must feel like walking through a time portal! Wish there were more places like this around the world!

She sounds like a News anchor only thing was missing is her ending with "This is CNN back to you"

Newsflash, every single bar in New York, heck in America, mixes coca-cola syrup with seltzer water. They have several tanks behind the bar. A tank of syrup for cola, sprite/7-up, Ginger Ale, etc and one of seltzer that mixes with it.

Always used to go here after school. Their soda was next-level.

This must be made into a Landmark!! This place represents New York (almost 100 years old)and the fact that Coke is HANDMADE!!! God bless this place!! 🗽 Thanks for this!!

I'm 69 years old and my first job was in a little cafe in my hometown of Sonoma California. It was owned by a couple named Carmella and Rocco Benedetto, not too Italian! We mixed the Coca Cola syrup with the soda, we cut our potatoes for the fries and got our meat for hamburgers from the butcher shop next door. We had REAL whipped cream. We had the marble top counter and the pull down lever to get soda, Coke and 7up. I still remember a couple who came in everyday and the gentleman always had a chocolate shake, thick with extra whipped cream on top and his wife had a banana split but instead of pineapple chunks on the vanilla ice cream she had caramel. I think their bill came to $4,50!! I was in a program at high school that was called work release where if you had a job you could get out of school to work and it counted toward credits to graduate. I was 16 and made $1.35 per hour AND I thought I was the shit!!! I remember thinking when I cashed my little check that this is what it's like to be a "grown up". Of course I really didn't have my bills to pay. It was fun and I learned a lot. Great memories.

Love the old school soda shop ❤️

another one for my bucket list!

No cocaine in my old Coke = Not worth

Lexington Candy Shoppe: Love, love, love this place -- diagonally across the street from my home. Jackie Kennedy used to bring John and Caroline here and so many others ...just a wonderful mix of everyone -- nothing "haute" about the place...just great comfort food.

Lexington candy shop looks like a cool place that still is vintage and the grandson still pours coke cola the old fashioned way that's cool for sure. I would love to visit that vintage candy shop some day.

Congratulations Lexington. Candy shop & luncheonette. An iconic historic place in operation, says a lot

sounds like she could narrate the show unwrapped

This could be an Inside Edition video and people won't know it.

I remember getting the syrup and seltzer delivered to my house when I was little. Brings back some wonderful memories

Absolutely love places like this. What a time machine moment

This is literally what soda fountains at 99% of restaurants do though. Edit: except for the stirring part

You are so gorgeous…why are you not on tv….and your voice is so pretty….hugs from carolyn in Columbus ga

Glad to see old famous stores still standing

That is how all fountain pop is produced. Literally out of any pop gun, it just does the mixing itself 😂

“He’s been doing it since 1970, so he’s a pro” *spills all over the side of the glass*

This place looks amazing!

Merci. When I was in New York, I did not know about this and none told me. My next visit, I definitely shall.

I really really really miss those old soda fountains. I used to stop in after school and get a burger and fries and a coke float or a vanilla ice cream soda . Good times. 💖

I love how this place left it the way it was back then. It like a breath of fresh air from the past if that makes sense. I love it. ❤

Wow! So nostalgic! Good old days!! Blessings

Amazing ❤️❤️❤️

Damn those places are always so cool a step back into history literally

She has such a professional, reporter way of speaking!!

I’m old enough to remember the candy stores as they were called doing that. One left that’s fabulous.

Honesty is the best policy

How absolutely, utterly delightful 💖 So many of these sweet, smal businesses are gone, and with them, all that precious history. The idea of enjoying a coke the old fashioned way once in a while makes having soda an event like it once was 💖 So charming 💖

Wow! It seems like such a magical place! I’m surprised there aren’t others and that Serendipity, for one, doesn’t still do this. That place, also, has been such a magical destination over the decades to take big-eyed children to enjoy huge ice cream sundaes, bubbly floats, and customized treats. What a wonderful place this is! So glad the son has kept this place open! Thanks for sharing!

That's awesome, I'm glad it wasn't destroyed by the manic covid hysteria like so many small shops and small businesses were. I'm glad they are still there.

Old is gold 😊

Nice choice of song for this Moonlight serenade by Glenn Miller is definitely one of my favorite big band tunes

If he mixes it the old way: Came for the Cola, but stayed for the Coke

Absolutely amazing. I wish to visit one day. That’s history in its form right there

When I was a kid in Massachusetts in the 1960s and '70s, we used to go to the drugstore soda counter for a prescription bottle of Coke syrup whenever we had a stomach bug. A spoon or two of the syrup would settle a "rumbly tumbly" and let you start getting food down.

We must keep as much of our history and traditions as possible. This place is a Gem

Reminds me of the Lunchanetts that used to be in every corner of NYC, we would go in for a 2 cent soda and a pretzel, or an egg cream, they made burgers, sandwiches, and scooped ice cream from the tubs of ice cream and you bought cones , banana splits , 🍨 sundaes, or ice cream in the folded cardboard Chinese food containers pints or quarts . Life during the 1960s and 1970s in NYC was magical ✨️

I’d be curious to see a side-by-side menu comparison of the original vs present day to see availability and price increases.

Glenn miller in the back Just perfection!

This is amazing! I hope he has children that can carry on the legacy. ❤

I appreciate you using Glen Miller type music in the background, to go with this classical coca cola story. 😍

there’s on by where I live and it’s SOO GOOOOOD. They also make fresh chocolate coke

That’s awesome, I would love to go there next time I’m in NYC.

Lexington Candy shop has the best chocolate milk shake I’ve ever had in my life.

_My Man has been doing Coca-Cola for 53 years. That's a record fellows..._

HOLY MOSES! That soda looks so DAMN good! RESPECT!

The music is "Moonlight Serenade" by Glenn Miller.

I love older diners and restaurants, makes me feel like I'm taking a step back into the past

Old is Gold always i love it this man old tradition still going on. ❤❤❤

Have to love an old place like that still keeping old ways alive. Glad the local clientele still go there.

How I love old timers Favorite...Like you're going the time tunnel...back to the 1950's era!

I live 15 minutes from there. It’s as old school as you want it to be. ❤️

Yep, my grandmother owned an ice cream shop in STL,Mo & was famous for her Coke/Coke floats. I remember the front store pumps, etc. until the school system messed everything up. It was called "The Fountain". Across the street from Mann Horse School in South St.Louis.

There is a diner/pharmacy (odd combo, I know lol) in Kenova, WV, Griffith & Feil, that still mixes coke. It's delicious!

The hidden gem. I’d so love to try it. If I ever get to visit the city.

They were incredibly rude to me and my girlfriend one day when we went in for coffee, literally just blank stares and no service, we sat for probably 20 minutes until we got a waitress (they weren’t busy) then the waitress said we could get coffee at the bar, so we sat down, waited some more, then asked multiple different staff if we could get coffee and they kept just pointing to someone else. Strangest experience I’ve ever had in my life. As a New Yorker, I’ve been to tons of restaurants and never experienced anything like it. We went to get coffee at Matto down the street, they were packed with only one lovely Italian guy working, and he was kind, welcoming, friendly, and fast and the coffee and pastries were excellent. Highly recommend Matto.

This is beautiful!

That was cool an nostalgic Thks for sharing 👍💯🥂

Wow, I used to make the sodas at Friendly's when I was in college. Syrup and soda water. That brought back memories! Thanks for a great video. God bless, Lynne🍃💜✝️💜🍃

I’m extremely impressed how long it has lasted that’s awesome
