I guess it is technically not a &#8220;Coca-Cola&#8221; store (perhaps a licensing issue?). The name of the store is <a href=\"http:\/\/www.niagarafallshotels.com\/attres\/always-refreshing-soda-shop.php\">Always Refreshing Soda Shop<\/a>. The person had been working in the falls for years, and yet didn&#8217;t know such a place existed. I stopped by and took a few pictures for this person, and I figured I&#8217;d post them here.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m not a fan of Coke, but if you are, and enjoy some of their vintage-looking items, then you should probably check the store out.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a
