Seriously, if you've never had an ice cream shake at Cafe 50's, you've never had a shake. They are absolutely amazing and come in pretty much every flavor of the rainbow (okay, 46 flavors). This is a killer deal -- grab it now. From Groupon Los Angeles:
A diner's oversized booths and oversized pies have long been a beacon of hope for teens dumped after prom and frowny clowns looking for new novelty-sized props. Take refuge in the crispy crust of an old-fashioned eatery with today's Groupon: for $8, you get $20 worth of nostalgic nibbles at Cafe 50’s, which has two locations.
Cafe 50's serves traditional diner fare, including all-day breakfast. Coat your stomach in sugaryness with malted waffles ($6.95), chocolate chip pancakes ($7.69), or cinnamon banana french toast ($8.95), or find yolkjoy with Cafe 50’s omelette selection ($8.95–$11.95), each made with three grade-AA eggs. The lunch and dinner options are seemingly endless: choose from hamburgers ($6.95–$11.95), salads ($4.29–$10.95), and sandwiches. Cafe 50’s also specializes in old-fashioned shakes, offering 46 flavors to choose from. Try the snicker-bar shake, a shivery sip blended with butterscotch, peanut butter, and chocolate ice cream ($4.79).
Owner Craig Martin complements the classic diner formula (kitschy memorabilia, late-night hours, home-cooked fare, man in corner swinging antique golf clubs) with vintage accents, including a 1957 Seeburg jukebox, old-fashioned booths, and an adjoining memorabilia room full of B-movie posters, I Love Lucy reruns, and Cold War–era newspapers.
There are two locations: One in Santa Monica Blvd in Los Angeles (near West LA) and another on Vermont.
Seriously. If you like shakes, get this Groupon Los Angeles now.
