Welcome back, 's! πŸŽ‰

After four years, this Main Street staple is officially open again (and the restoration is absolutely beautiful)! We’re thrilled to see one of America’s longest standing soda fountains serving up memories once again right here on Caroline Street.

From classic sandwiches, cold plates and sides to fountain sodas and milkshakes, Goolrick’s is ready to welcome you back. Stop by and experience this beloved piece of downtown history for yourself at 901 Caroline Street.

Congratulations to the entire Goolrick’s team on this exciting new chapter! We’re so happy to have you back downtown. ❀️
