Popping over to POPS

The Travel section of the Dallas Morning News went to POPS convenience store and restaurant on Route 66 in Arcadia, Okla.

Most of it you’ve already read about here. But this excerpt indicates that business is still going strong after POPS opened in August:

Despite its out-of-the-way location, Pops was an instant hit. About 20 people were waiting in line at 5 a.m. the day it opened, and more than 11,000 bottles of soda were sold the first week, according to Jessica Ockershauser, marketing manager.

The store now sells an average of 9,000 bottles a week. The restaurant serves about 700 people weekly, she says, and on weekend nights the wait time can be as much as two hours.
