Retro ice cream shop serves up classics

A Cobble Hill ice cream shop has a retro flair -- an old-school soda fountain in a building that was once a pharmacy.
The Brooklyn Farmacy and Soda Fountain at 513 Henry St. serves old-fashioned favorites like egg creams, root beer floats and sparkling sodas.
And when temperatures rise, so does the foot traffic.
Area residents say the shop is a great place to escape soaring summer temperatures.
