What's not to love? 11/24/2005

What's not to love about this place? Car hops on skates, fresh creamy root beer! MMMMM!! You can even buy it by the jug to take home. The ice cream is great and so is the food. Although we mostly go for the root beer. It's fun to pull up on a hot summer night and get a big frosty glass of homemade root beer. We often see an old car or two --it's reminiscient of the 50's. I often send visitors to town over to Ardy and Ed's for some fun. Great place! more

A Flash from the Past 6/6/2005

This drive-in reminds you of Happy Days. The car hops are on roller skates, 50s music is playing in the background. It is located close to Lake Winnebago in a pretty quiet neighbornood. It is a fun place to have a root beer and burger and relax. It is a must go to place at least once a summer for out of town people and many more times for those in the area. more
