I was greeted when my order was taken, but after the sale, when I said 'thank you', all I got was a 'yep' out of the young lady taking my order. I think returning the gratitude was in order, especially after I paid a 20% tip I didn't realize there was no service and that not only would I have to pick up my food order, but I would also have to clear my table and dispose of my trash. What was the purpose of the tip? For the people behind the counter and in the kitchen just doing their jobs? The fries were decent, but the chicken breast on my sandwich looked like it came from a baby chicken. No way this is a chicken breast, but rather a small cutlet. A bit deceptive on the menu. I am pretty sure that during my visit there was an area manager, or possibly the store manager, sitting near me, but she spent more time talking on her phone than doing anything to improve the customer experience. My experience did not equal the $23 I paid for my meal. I will not be returning, nor would I recommend. read more

We came here for dessert. Place was half empty on a Sunday at 1 pm while super hot outside. That's seemed odd. Staff was ok. Ice cream was ok. Ice cream scoop is huge. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Lots of dirty tables.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Not sure what to think of this place read more

Came up to "Party at the Plaza" and we needed a quick bite- Soda Fountain Express it was. They never look busy when I've walked by before, and sure enough they weren't busy on the inside either. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The interior is nice and clean, but I don't think they fully committed to the soda parlor aesthetic as much I was hoping for.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Their Coke Zero from the fountain was gross, so I had to switch to Diet. My Double Cheeseburger didn't have much sauce on it, and the patties were extremely tiny even by smashburger standards (I thought I had just received a single burger for a second). My bf's Spicy Chicken Sandwich was "just okay". Luckily the fries were fresh and crispy, and came in a big enough serving to fill us up. Don't know if I'd visit again but for an "okay" meal on a time crunch, it was decent enough. read more

My family and I went to the Soda Fountain Express on a Friday night. We ordered the Everything But to share it. When we received it, it looked very good. But the ice cream was like milk. It was totally melted. It was disappointing because there wasn't any ice cream just milk. read more

we love going here with the whole family! The burgers are my favorite and the kids love the ice cream treats!

My wife and I met a manager named Chelsea. After 5 minutes, we felt like she was an old friend. So welcoming and so kind. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The whole environment felt that way.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Oh, and the mint ice cream was really good too! Highly recommend! read more

Took my daughter here for a PTO fundraiser night. The service was super fast! Ordered her a root beer float because she said she wanted to try it. Turns out she didn't like it. Staff at the counter were so accommodating and got her a scoop of chocolate instead. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Also this place smells so good like nostalgia.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Was excited to try this restaurant but was so disappointed! From the minute we walked in, the staff looked and acted miserable. They were rude, didn't want to accommodate our request for half of the meal to be to go, and they weren't welcoming. Upon realizing the ketchup container was empty, I walked up to the counter to tell them and they replied "there's packets here." and brushed me off. We got the food and it was disappointing to say the least. The sauce on my burger was spicy, with no warning, and my girlfriend's bacon on her BLT was so burnt it was inedible, resulting in throwing away nearly $40 in food. Even my Diet Coke float was a disappointment as the ice cream was freezer burnt. -10/10 we will not be back! read more

We walked in, after having a nice dinner at a near by restaurant and we were so excited about the candy selection they had. We walked in wanting just a few shakes and ended up spending over 50 dollars just in candy. We ordered two shakes; I got a regular shake and my daughter got an unbirthday shake. We sat down and waited, waited some more. We decided to go ask why it was taking so long to get two shakes, only to find out our order was never entered in the system. After a 70 dollar ticket plus a 10.00 tip to the lady in the front counter we expected more than just an apology. Even if it was one free shake, I mean we waited 45 minutes for TWO shakes!!!! Disappointing that their customer service was lacking. read more

Fun fun fun! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The smell of fresh baked cookies and treats hits as soon as you open the door.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The neat 50's dinner vibe is good, but not too overplayed.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The food menu was pretty basic with burgers, hot dogs, chicken strips fried and onion rings. Niece had the chicken strips and fries, the good crinkle ones. She's picky but they met her standards. SIL had the bacon cheeseburger, and hitch she said was good and I opted for the chili dog and onion rings. Definitely the old classics taste, al good. But then we went for the real purpose for our visit...desserts! Niece opted for the candy by the pound wall. SIL had the Neapolitan Banana sundae without pineapple, but the pineapple still made its appearance. I had the Everything But shake and that should be illegal. The shake itself was a good chocolate shake, but the enormous amount of toppings above was epic. The brownie itself was fantastic. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place is a bit noisy, but there are lots of happy folks.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The service is all behind the counter, no wait staff on the floor, but they were all very pleasant. I think next time I'll skip food and start with the sweets. read more

I stopped in here when we were at Westport Plaza to visit the Rawling Store. I've been to the location at Union Station a couple times. This is a pared down version of that shop. There is a limited food menu and shake menu compared to the Union Station location. However I thought it was serviceable and everyone was happy with what you got. What I really loved about the location was that you ordered at the counter and then just took a seat. This service style is much more efficient that the table service at the Union Station location. As a result we got the orders in fast and the food came out quickly. The staff was pleasant enough as well. The store was clean and had that 50s decorative vibe that you expect from the location. It isn't something I'd go out of my way to visit, but this works if you want a burger and shake. read more

We only came here for the freak shakes, but it was well with a visit to Westport. The Everything But... freak shake is what pregnancy dreams are made of and it definitely lives up to the hype. The freak shake prices ($10+) and sizes feel more manageable at the Westport location than the Union Station location. We visited during lunch on a weekday so it was not too crowded, which allowed the kids the opportunity to bounce off the walls after sharing some ice cream. The great thing about this location is you can easily walk around outside to help get the sugar wiggles out. read more

I had high hopes for this establishment. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The interior is designed like a modern day soda shop[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] however I was shocked at how food and desserts were served. I expected glass or glass like dishes (e.g. cups & bowls) however instead we received desert in paper & plastic. I looked around to see if other patrons had disposable dish ware and they did as well. The quality and taste were so so. I'd recommend skipping and checking out others like Crown Candy or The Fountain on Locust. read more

Food: 3 Stars Service: 5 Stars The highly anticipated Soda Fountain Express in Westport is finally open! The old St. Louis Bread Co. was completely remodeled inside and out, giving a nod to the 1940's & '50's soda shops but with a modern twist. Menu is kept simple with a handful of quick bites, sundaes, and creamy milkshakes. The husband opted to try the Everything But..., which literally has just about everything in it but the kitchen sink. It's a meal in itself! Hop on over for a sweet treat with your loved ones! read more

Service is friendly and always a good time. Food always fresh the chicken tender and chicken wrap are my favorites

[[HIGHLIGHT]]The inside of this place is so cute! It smells amazing and sweet right as you walk in.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The staff is very friendly and helpful. I got the crispy chicken wrap with ranch and fries. The fries were pretty good, but the wrap was a little... sad. It definitely seems overpriced but this would be a fun place for kids. My boyfriend got the double bacon cheeseburger and liked it enough to finish. He said he would give it a 3/5. He said the bacon on it was a little weird. Wasn't a bad experience at all! Just wish the food was a bit better. read more

I rate this establishment 2.5 stars. The food is subpar and pricey for just sandwiches fries and ice cream. You're definitely paying for the location. The service in ok, they're not rude but they're not engaging or attentive. We waited 30 minutes for our server to come back and check on us. We then waited again to pay our tab. The overall all visit was below average. read more

Jade V-- fantastic service! She deserves a tv and more she made my children very happy! thank you Jade!

Terrible customer service from the time we walked in. The two ladies behind the counter were some of the most rude people I've ever met. Both had bad attitudes. Ice cream freezer burnt, food mediocre. Best to save money and go somewhere else. read more

I was so excited to try this diner. The decor was gorgeous as you can see from the pictures. I ordered a double cheeseburger and a side of fries. The food was absolutely ATROCIOUS. The fries, while they were crispy, did not have a stitch of salt and were bitter tasting and weird. The burger continued the bland theme, probably one of the worst burgers I've had. It came with tomato, onion, lettuce, and some special "sauce" that might as well have been Mayo. Very disappointing. For them to be priced around Five Guys price range, I needed the food flavors to be on par, and they absolutely were not. And for them to charge separately for the fries that were as bad as they were, is absurd. Do not waste your money here unless you're grabbing a shake read more

We were going to Starbucks but decided to get ice cream instead. So glad we did! It wasn't crowded when we went in. The place is beautiful! It's very much a 50s-inspired interior. We had some ice creams and snacked on some food. Everything was great! Feels like we got a better experience than some of the people in the review here but we would definitely come back read more

A few work colleagues and I decided to try the Soda Fountain Express today for lunch. The interior is designed in the theme of an older style soda shop, with candies lining the wall as you walk in. Super cute and very clean. The menu is limited with a few burgers, chicken tenders, chicken sandwich, hotdog, pb&j. They have an assortment of shakes, sundaes , and scoops. We all got burgers w/fries or onion rings. The burgers are made with fresh patties not the frozen ones. The onion rings were some of the best I've had. We also got ice creams I had the All American sundae. Very delicious all around read more
