Farm Luck Soda Fountain & Dry Goods

Located in the heart of beautiful downtown Waxahachie, Texas. This converted bank turned old fashion soda jerk gives the feeling of going back to a simpler time. The seating and decor leaves brings back a time where Waxahachie was the rail city in its splendor. The menu is simple with only a couple of food items such as, sandwiches, soup and salad, to make way for what brings you back as a kid, the ice cream. They have a huge banana split that puts the dallas fair to shame and need a crowd of hungry kids or three football players to scarf it down. The ice cream they use is blue bell so you know this small town cafe loves its texas roots through and through. behind the soda fountain there is a candy store with an assortment of candies you rarely see now a days. this is a great place to sit and have lunch after church, or convince the kids to come antique shopping with little resistance. Come check out this great piece of history restored to a yummy future.

The root beer cream soda (picture) was not what I originally ordered. I ended up not like what I ordered a whole bunch, I took a gamble with something different. Owner (I think) overheard me say I wasn’t the biggest fan and made a replacement (that I loved) himself. This place is awesome. Food, soda, ice cream and service all highly recommended.

Tasty ice cream!!! Cute place and friendly people. I’ve been many times and it’s mostly a really great experience. Occasionally I get an “eh” food day, but not enough to not return. Usually it’s spot of for a good sandwich and taco soup. Coffee is French press which is pretty good too!
