Watson's Soda Fountain Cafe - Orange

The entire staff was pleasant and on the task and this was an overshake, as the service has fallen most everywhere in the last time. we tried this blt and it was very good with a unique twist. large portion size. street parking is difficult, but the opposite is nice for a walk.

Watson’s is a historic mainstay of old town Orange, California!! It’s the oldest soda fountain in all of California!!! When you step foot in this beautiful place, you’re immediately taken back to the vibrant culture of the 1950s in America!! The bar too has been expanded and they now have a great coffee bar called Kiki’s Corner inside as well! Next time you’re at the Orange Circle, you HAVE to check it out!!

If you want a little throwback kind of vibe, diner feel with some hefty portions head over to Watson's. I have always loved this spot, having gone to Orange High School this was one of the go-to spots we would hit up. They've been around since 1899 and love the atmosphere. If you have seen That Thing You Do you will definitely recognize this place because some scenes were shot here We had the Cinnamon Toast Pancakes and not even 2 people could polish off the plate. It was super yummy! Besides that, burgers, fries, breakfast all great and nothing to complain on that end.

Never Again. This used to be the perfect family spot for food breakfast lunch or dinner and desserts. With amazing service and super friendly staff. Now if you’re looking for a place that will take over an hour from the point that you order to get your very mediocre borderline bad food then this is the place for you. However it will never again be a place for me my family or any of my friends. sad to see a orange circle legend fall so far from Grace. Never again!

Way over priced. If the kitchen looks like the bathroom it is scary. Nasty bathroom! The floors weren't even clean anywhere. Food was barely okay and absolutely did not warrant the very high prices. Sure it was cute, fun nostalgic but far from worth it. I would have liked to leave a tip but $20.00 for a sandwich and drink... Hope they at least pay the help well.
