Have you ever wanted to go to one of those old-timey restaurants where it feels like you just time-jumped into a different decade? Perhaps there’s a jukebox in the corner playing Elvis music while burgers and shakes are delivered right to your vinyl booth? Located in various areas of New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Delaware Nifty Fifty’s is a vintage food spot that serves up family-friendly meals including cheesesteaks, burgers, chicken and waffles, and of course thick, creamy milkshakes.

Established in the late 1980’s, Nifty Fifty’s has since been admired as an awesome Philadelphia eatery that offers a “retro” experience, making it feel like you’re enjoying an authentic 50’s family lunch or dinner. One of the key attractions is the colossal milkshake menu, and not to mention “The World’s Largest Soda Fountain,” featuring ice-cold colas in every flavor you could ever imagine! There are also jukeboxes in the corners blaring out tunes from the 50’s and 60’s, adding to the old-timey appeal. Grab a handful of quarters, slip on a leather jacket, and boogie on down to this far-out joint!
