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!

Simple and tasty, old fashion ice cream parlor. The young lady that helped us was so sweet. Go check it out.

We were super excited to try The Corner Sundry tonight after dinner and as soon as we entered the door, the female employee working behind the counter rolled her eyes and shook her head looking at us with annoyance. It was 7:40pm (check the cameras) and there was still 20 minutes to closing. She was very clearly frustrated and when we turned to leave I told her not to worry - we surely wouldn’t be ordering anything. Super disappointed.***Even more disappointed in the owner’s response below. That’s quite an interesting spin on what actually happened. All the same, we won’t return.
Very wonderful place, very quiet place. Very good shop for kids and adults, to purchase ice cream, candies, chocolate candies and etc. I've visited this place yesterday, I really liked it so much. I wish it will be some more places shopping scapes for kids like this one. Thank you for having us yesterday.

I go at least once a week with a group of friends and we always enjoy this small town shop that is so friendly. The malts are the best in town along with the customer service. Prices are very reasonable!
