Lexington Candy Shop

Diner · Upper East Side

@infatuation

"When a diner has been open for almost 100 years, there’s a good chance that it’s worth a stop. A short walk from The Met, Lexington Candy Shop on the Upper East Side is one of the only places in New York that still mixes sodas just like they did when they opened in 1925. Sit up at the counter, grab some pancakes or an excellent tuna melt, and watch the waiters pump cola syrup into seltzer, mix egg creams, and pour coffee from a percolator that still uses a gas burner. " - bryan kim, will hartman, willa moore, sonal shah, neha talreja
