Chris RAugust 6, 2014Great selection of sweets and smaller meals. A bit pricey, but they do run daily specials. (10% off sundaes on Sunday, etc). Worth a visit to see the old fashioned musical gear too! Go back in time!Upvote2Downvote- Jim BurganMay 10, 2013Not only is the Gom delicious, their Gom "Cheese-Br-Ger" has been a favorite since was a kid. Great ambience, fabulous food, home made over cream (ever had a "green river phosphate"?) and more!Upvote3Downvote
- Sammy TerryMarch 21, 2014Inside better than before refurbishing. I wish they would use the original gom cheeseburger recipe (which was far superior than the version the "chefs" created flex to soothe their desire to create.UpvoteDownvote
Hotel IndigoAugust 14, 2013Splurge on a banana split or old-fashioned milkshake before exploring the in-house museum with rare items, including an 1850s marble soda fountain.Upvote1Downvote
ᴡ IlligJanuary 27, 2013Get the gom sandwich or the artisan grilled cheese with avocado sandwich. The tomato bisque is amazing too!UpvoteDownvote
Jennifer DuncanJuly 4, 2012Order the real soda fountain drinks and save plenty of room for ice cream. The peanut butter sauce is to die for.Upvote1Downvote

Kristen WatsonJune 15, 2018Thought I would get chicken strips and fries because really - how can you go wrong? Pretty disappointed and very greasy. Stick with ice cream.UpvoteDownvote
Shelby KirkMay 30, 2011Caution! The spicy dijon mustard on the sandwiches are so hot, and they put so much on, that you cant taste it!UpvoteDownvote
