Milkshakes, candy by the pound, bowling shirts? Be still our beating retro heart -- Bertie's has come to Arcadia.
Located at 4041 East Thomas Road (40th Street and Thomas), Bertie's opened Monday (with cake pops in hand, natch) offering a sweet treat or two to go along with the vintage shopping.
Inviting guests to stop in for a milkshake or ice cream cone while relaxing at the soda fountain, Bertie's also features a candy shop. Called the Sugar Shack, treats past and present can be purchased (think Sugar Babies, Bit-O-Honeys, and Chiclets) pre- or post-shopping for Hawaiian shirts, vintage handbags, and eclectic little black dresses.

Keep Phoenix New Times Free... Since we started Phoenix New Times, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Phoenix, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Phoenix with no paywalls.
