Hendersonville, NC
I love the neon mortar and pestle, although it's a shame it's been enclosed in plexiglass -- but I'm guessing that's for preservation purposes.
There's a fascinating history behind this location. Here's just a snippet from Mike's On Main website, the current occupant of the premises:
"The building was built in 1900. It was built and operated as a pharmacy by Dr. William Hicks Justus until 1957 when it was sold to Dr. Albert Beck and his brother Bill Beck. Justus Pharmacy installed and operated the first soda fountain in Hendersonville, and it still operates as the only soda fountain in Hendersonville."
