Most of these drugstore eateries were phased out in the ‘70s, but this lunch counter held on, even surviving the transition of Eckerd's to Rite-Aid. The restaurant seems to have also held on to its prices, offering hot dogs with the works for $1.49, and egg, tuna or chicken salad sandwiches for $2.69. Want a veritable bucket of cherry-vanilla coke? You can get that here too.
The Counter is open Monday through Saturday, from 8 a.m. (yes, they serve breakfast) until 2 p.m.
846 Merrimon Ave. 252-1866, http://www.riteaid.com
