The Lexington Candy Shop is a well-known and historic restaurant famous for its old-fashioned and handcrafted sodas. The menu features classic New York breakfast options, though some may find the prices quite high. The service is generally good, and the atmosphere gives visitors a sense of stepping back in time, often described as a "time capsule." The handmade sodas and egg creams are a highlight, with many customers praising their nostalgic and delicious flavors. The establishment uses historical equipment to make all the soda fountain classics, adding to its charm. While some find the prices for soda fountain items to be very expensive, the quality and authenticity of the drinks are appreciated. The restaurant has been a part of New York's tradition since the 1920s, offering a unique and authentic dining experience.
