A real step back in time to the last surviving Ace Drive-In. I chose to eat indoors instead of the car hop service. Staff was very helpful and friendly. Had a great shake with the special of the day which was spicy sausages.

We love the food and the root beer floats with homemade ice cream. You can have a tray attached to your car window or you can eat at the picnic tables provided. This place is seasonal and has only outdoor eating.

Recommended dishes: Onion Rings, Black Cow, Turkey Club Sandwich, BBQ Beef Sandwich and Fries

Used to go there a long long time ago. Looks like it is still just as good as it used to be.

You pull into a spot and a girl walks up to take your order. My first visit was very pleasant; double-cheeseburger was on a toasted bun and the proper sort of greasy, the fries were shoestrings and came wrapped in paper instead of a bag, and a very big root beer which tasted great before the ice melted. I will most definitely be returning to try more of that very big menu. Bring money because it's cash only, and don't forget to tip your waitress!

Old style drive up. Gals come up to your car take your order as you sit there in the comfort of your vehicle or there is picnic tables that you can sit outside. If you decide to stay in your car the girls will place your order on your slightly down side driver's windshield, just like the old style Dog and Suds.

Parking: About 20 parking spots around the restaurant. Easy access on an off parking lot from route 30.
