If you’re craving a sweet treat along with a hearty dose of nostalgia, you’ve got to pay a visit to Pearl River Drug Co. Visiting a pharmacy when desiring something sweet may seem like a strange notion; however, it makes complete sense when you learn that Pearl River Drug Co. is home to an old-fashioned soda fountain. Take a look:
Pearl River Drug Co. is located along Main Street in the tiny town of Poplarville. From the outside, it looks like an ordinary pharmacy.

It’s not all run-of-the-mill at Pearl River Drug Co., though. In the back of the store, you’ll find its most unexpected (and best) feature – an old-fashioned soda fountain!
