History

The shopping location that is currently known as Club Cool originally opened as Ice Station Cool in 1998 [1]. Ice Station Cool was themed as an arctic research station. Guests would enter through a snowy cave, before passing through an ice tunnel with real snow [1]. During their entrance into the main area, guests would also see a frozen caveman holding a bottle of coke [2]. Once inside the shop, guests could sample various coca-cola flavors from around the world[1].

In June 2005, Ice Station Cool closed for refurbishment. At this time, the location was completely redone, eventually reopening on as Club Cool on November 14, 2005 [3]. This new Coca-Cola sponsored location still allows guests to sample Coca-Cola flavors from around the world, however it is now has a modern urban theme.

In 2013, Club Cool got entirely new flavors for guests to sample. The old flavors were all replaced at this time, although Beverly remained [4].
