Had to make the road trip 3/05 for the first day of their 69th anniversary. I got the first fried chicken of the season and it tasted so good! You can save $3 and enjoy it for their Monday special. They have a daily special, Thursday is grilled or fried chicken sandwich combo.
Did you know this was one of the first businesses in Hinckley. The best part is how reasonable the prices are. Staff always seem to be enjoying their customers with friendly and prompt service.
I will certainly make the trip again for another favorite of mine, the DJ deluxe burger and onion rings. Don’t forget the chocolate malt too.
They keep the dining room spotless and you can enjoy their patio and watch the trains go by.

Some serious nostalgia going on here! Such a cool spot to grab a bite to eat or get a sweet treat if you are traveling off of the interstates! We stopped in here on a lazy Sunday afternoon and this place was popping! You can feel that 50s diner feel when you step inside. We opted for some ice cream and were not dissapointed with a chocolate sundae with Andes mints! Will definitely be back and highly recommend!

Right out of the 50′. Great decor! Love the soft serve. Staff was friendly. They also serve food and have indoor/outdoor seating. And they were playing cool music.

Small town drive in. Every table was almost filled! They have a drive through and a walk up as well. We stopped here driving through town and they did not disappoint! Clean, friendly and great food. Everything is made to order. We got the burgers, fries and shakes. So good!! If you’re driving through this town, definitely make a stop here!

I have driven past this place tons of times. I definitely will be coming back. The soft serve ice cream is pretty much perfect. The facility itself feels very neat and historic. We came at a busy time and they were still decently quick.
Parking lot is a little tight but other than that, it’s a fun little establishment.

Food is good, soft serve ice cream/hot dog type place. Order was screwed up, hence the 3 stars. Polite service. Ordered chocolate shake and got vanilla, ordered giardinara with my beef sandwich and didn’t get any. They have take away and dine in. Walk up window counter service. Cutsie old fashioned atmosphere. Route 30 old time atmosphere. They are seasonal, so check that they are still open.

Very cool place to have lunch or dinner. 60’s theme throughout the whole place. Favorite jams from the 60’s plays as you eat. There is an indoor and outdoor area to eat. Walk up or dine in. I’d rate customer service a 6/10. I think I was a but happier for a first timer then they were.
The menu has a variety of choices and prices are $$. I didn’t take a picture of the desert menu but it went on and on with choices. From Banana Splits to fresh-made Malt drinks or milkshakes. Toppings Galore as well with flavors to choose from. We chose the twisted cones. They come in S, M &L. Which is great for small children! Definitely will be back with the family to try some other must haves like a pizza puff, corn dog or even fried chicken!!
