Nice small little old school American style diner/park and eat. Has outside seating, car hops, and inside diner.
The air must have not been working on the day I came here cause it was HOT inside and out.
Service was fast, simple and easy, and very friendly. Large simple menu with non-meat option (I was surprised by this, I didn’t order any of it, tho).
I tried several different hot dogs and sausages, and all were very good. The patty melt was hands down the best thing I ate here, and that says a lot as everything was really good.
The jalapeno poppers were spicy!
The cheese curds were great, along with the mozzarella sticks. The waffle fries weren’t bad either.
If you’re in the area and want great burgers/hot dogs, this is the place.

It’s a charming rustic-style drive-in. I will say my waitress was not very attentive, and I waited for a long time to be helped and for my tray to be taken, and it was not very busy. I think their food was very tasty and has that craving-filling flavor. I would recommend trying it out if you are in the area.

Fun drive-in experience with friendly and attentive staff and delicious food! We loved the Anchor Burger, the Giant Burger, sweet potato fries and the chocolate malt. They have an extensive menu and a fun cardboard car for kids’ meals and an old school diner cup. $55 for 4 full meals and a malt isn’t bad! Definitely recommend.

This place used to be amazing. I’ve been bragging about it to my boyfriend for years. He’s never been. We went today, it’s been many many years since I’ve been here I got the fish and chips dinner and the breading was so hard I could barely bite into it. The fish was incredibly dry. The fries were old tasting. No flavor to any thing. Everything was over done. We ate inside and there was zero air flow. Our waitress was good and friendly. Won’t be back, sadly. I’ll pay the higher prices at George’s for better food and dining experience.

It took a long time for our food to get in. There were a lot of people inside and outside. Only 1 waitress inside, not sure if she was responsible for both outside and inside…
The food was ok. I ordered the swamp water, it sounded interesting and tasted good. Fried clam was just ok. Hot dogs that other people looked amazing and I probably should’ve ordered that.
Kids meal came in a cardboard car thing, pretty cool for the kids. There was also a toy in it. Nice touch.

Cute lunch spot close to the national park! I ordered an LA street dog woth onion rings and a soda. Everything was piping hot and well prepared. Friend ordered a sandwich and sweet potato fries that were the perfect color. She also ordered the green soda and was pleasantly surprised by it! Great place to stop for a quick bite while in town.

FUN! What a fun lunch. Pretty darn good BLT. server just a nice person. If you’re a #rootbeer fan…get a frosty mug full. Drive in, eat in your car, or walk up window. They do charge a cc percentage fee. It’s listed on the menu. Affordable and nice

Amazing food, amazing service, can’t wait to go back! Best root beer we’ve ever had. Every food item we tried was top notch! Huge menu of items – enough to please even the pickiest eaters.
Try the Bosco sticks – they’re deep fried and delicious. The Thai chicken wrap was epic too. Pizza puff was just the right amount of spicy and the dough on the outside was thin, fried, and delicious almost like an egg roll. Kids meals come in these awesome folded Buick Roadmasters with toys hidden inside. Prices were amazing. Highly recommended! Great place to stop on the way back east from Chicago.
