Founded in 1915, the South Pasadena Pharmacy is like a nostalgic old ice cream soda shop although the pharmacy component is as high-tech and advanced as it gets and offers excellent pharmaceutical service. A trip to the Fair Oaks Pharmacy and Soda Fountain should always include a browse through The Gift Store which offers amusing vintage items, seasonal displays, bath items, jewelry, fashion accessories and a huge assortment of candy, stationery supplies and greeting cards.
