Old style food drive in and pick up. Great hot dogs and a variety of burgers. Loved their 🍟 fries. Told was a feature of the road there 60+ years. Definitely a must try stop if in the area.

I have liked this root beer stand for many years & only drove by to see that it was still there. I feel transported back in time by the 50's style joint where you order and dine in your car. The waitress brings the order to your car window. There exists here a genuine nostalgia that Sonic drive-ins just do not have. My daughter fondly remembers us coming here for a mug or root beer or a root beer float. Small mugs for small kids hands was great because kids can hold their small mugs well and they know their needs were considered when this drive-in bought tiny mugs. I will make it a point to stop in for a mug again soon. Atmosphere: 4 Recommended dishes Black Cow

If you like the old school drive in, this is your place! I've loved this place since I was a kid. The whiz burger is my favorite! The black cow is amazing too! There's a sweet lady that always takes our order and always remembers me! I'd give 10 stars if I could!

Such an awesome little drive-in! We’re new to the Independence area so this was our first time trying this restaurant & it was great! Prices are very reasonable, our carhop was very friendly, and the food was great! Very yummy comfort food. We definitely will be coming back. We are very impressed.

My daughter is a huge root beer float fan and has been begging me to try this place. It did not disappoint. The customer service was immediately welcoming and friendly and she gave a great explanation of the "favorites". The root beer was amazing and the root beer float was even better. The cheeseburger wasn't my favorite (too mushy) but the onion rings more than made up for it. And who can beat these prices??!! We'll definitely be back.

The root beer in the cold frozen mug is just amazing. It's just so smooth, and not overpowering. For food I ordered the zip burger and fries. The zip burger is kinda like a sloppy Joe that has mustard, onions, and pickles on it and oh wow was it good. The fries were pretty decent as well. It's also very good price wise. Overall I definitely recommend this place, and will be back in the future. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
For a place named for their in-house root beer, I'm not a fan of it. However, I am a fan of the delicious chicken nuggets and several other menu items. On this trip I ordered 18 nuggets (don't worry I ate 6 and saved 12) with barbecue sauce (Gates original sauce is what they give you for dipping). The nuggets are the best around as they are gigantic and tasty! I also ordered a whiz burger (crumbly burger with cheese). Prices are affordable and the car hops are always friendly. With a large menu there is no reason not to try this blast from the past. Service Take out Meal type Dinner Price per person $1–10
Foods low tier and sits in a hot box..... just look at that chili dog! No where near fresh! I had really high hopes for this place. The only thing that was decent was the chili tots, but than again the chili has this interesting sweet taste. Corn dog wasn't even cooked all the way. MANAGERS need to do some work here Food: 1 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 3

This food was affordable and delicious. The server was nice and our food was ready super fast. We got: whiz burgers (come with cheese, pickles, mustard, and onions), whiz dog, onion rings, fried mushrooms, Frito pie, and root beer. Everything was great.
