This is my favorite soda place in the valley. And yes, I have tried them all. Sodalicious is across the street from my house, and it would make sense to go there rather than drive 15 minutes to Soda Shop, but I won't. I can't stand the sickly syrupy sweet taste of SD sodas and their frozen, underbaked cookies. The Soda Shop has amazing cookies (I suspect they come from the nearby Sweet Tooth Fairy-YUM!), and the sodas are perfect. My vanilla cream Coke is perfectly flavored, and doesn't taste like a full cup of vanilla syrup was haphazardly dumped in it. Their teenage staff is pleasant and happy, and they always get my order right. Their punch cards are the bomb! My teen kids all love it here, too. It is a win-win for all of us when we are looking for a quick treat.
