Relax this winter the best way ~ grilled cheese and hot cocoa!

Things are cooling down, so as your craving for ice cream lessens (just a little!), stop in for grilled cheese sandwiches of all kinds as well as freshly made hot chocolate! Both are bound to take the chill out of the day!

But as the weather continues to fluctuate, you can still enjoy sundaes on those hot days, drizzled with chocolate or caramel (perhaps both?), and topped with everything you can think of from pecans to bright sprinkles and more! Or indulge in a favorite phosphate, milk shake, or a simple ice cream cone for on-the-go yums!

We've always been a favorite of Independence, and we can't thank you enough for visiting our little corner, taking photos and giving us shoutouts.  So come and see us Mondays through Saturdays from 12pm to 6pm! We've repainted inside and out, plus added a brand new sign outside to let all the world know who's here!

So come on - let's enjoy ice cream together!

About us

While Clinton’s Soda Fountain has been in business since 1988, our building on Independence Square dates back to the 1800s. Step into Clinton’s Soda Fountain, sit at the marble bar, and experience a moment in history. Decades ago, young Harry Truman worked at a pharmacy and soda fountain at this very location on Independence Square. People from every state in the U.S. of A. have come to visit Clinton’s Soda Fountain's old-fashioned fountain, order a sundae or phosphate, and relax after a day of sightseeing and shopping. Whether you order Harry’s Favorite (a butterscotch sundae with chocolate ice cream) or pick your own pleasure, Clinton’s is a must-stop destination.
​
Over the years, it housed a shoe store, jewelry shop, pharmacy, and soda fountain. Today, the charm and tradition of the old-fashioned soda fountain continues right down to the checkerboard floor. Take a peek at the 100-year-old marble countertop and wooden backdrop that were originally used at another soda fountain in Kansas. Clinton’s serves classic soda phosphates with flavored syrups, ice cream, and other treats for your sweet tooth. Throughout the room, historic photographs depict scenes from yesteryear. Cool off after a promenade around the square and see the location where hardworking Harry got started at his first job before taking on the biggest job in the land.
