A wonderful stop for sweets and treats in downtown Indianola. Real fruit shakes, candy, coffee and drinks, etc. Very nostalgic atmosphere.

Cute little place to stop. Takes you back in time to an old candy store with ice cream sundaes, floats & more. Lots of fun candy to look at. Places to sit inside and a bench outside. We went at the end of the day so they were out of two different ice cream flavors. We took our kids and they thought it was neat. If you are looking for “something different” or get the “we’re bored”, give this a try.
Kid-friendliness: Kid friendly as in there is lots to look at. If they struggle with touching everything, maybe not ?. The bar stools next to the ice cream freezer are high, so more for 6+ year olds without supervision.

If you want a MALT instead of a malt, go here. I'm always disappointed when I order malts anywhere now because none of them ever taste like malted milk. This one was so good!

Went in on Sunday. Young lady was by herself. Car show on the square. We ordered 8 shakes. The were all delicious. She was quick and a very good server.
I've traveled the world over, and this is the best soda fountain on the planet Earth. Old school soda fountan/sundry. The Cherry Coke chocolate Coke tastes just like Harry used to make them. The Malts taste the same as well. This place is an Iowa institution and should be placed on some type of a national historic register. I can't tell you how much I love this place. This is the first place I go every time I hit town.

the old americana aesthetic is well put together. very traditional yet modern enough to not be annoying. love this place so much, the staff is very caring as well.
Vegetarian options: It is not listed on the menu, but you can ask for a veggie sandwich. It has cheese, lettuce, and tomato all in a toasted panini. its my go-to every time i order a sandwich from there. the tomato is juicy, the cheese is gooey, lettuce is crisp, and the panini gives a perfect crunch. price should range somewhere between 4-7 dollars [including tax]
Opened in 1949 Corner Sundry is an indianola institution. They have all the traditional soda fountain favorites. From green rivers, malts, Bannana splits and more. A wide selection of vintage candidates including twin rings, candy buttons, and candy cigarettes. ?Recently they have added sandwiches and walking tacos. A must stop for whole family.
Kid-friendliness: The owner is very kind and patient with kiddos.
I visited the Corner Sundry on the west side of the square in Indianola, IA, the afternoon of 12/13/23. In the midst of errands I decided to sit, relax and have a cup of coffee. I'm very glad I chose this small place, my first time there. My individual cup of coffee was freshly brewed, tasty and hit the spot. The owner, Mike, was friendly, personable and served me with a smile. The place was busy when I first walked in, but it didn't take long to get my order. I will indeed return!
So good!
