This has been standard Saturday lunch growing up. And when I went to SHS, this was also lunch some days. This is an institution. The owner is so nice, and you cannot recreate these at home. It's the bun/mustard/pickle combo and the meat is just right. Add a homemade root beer and you are good to go! The fries are good to eat in the car on the drive home, obvi.
The food is good, but you're coming here for the atmosphere. The owner (pictured) will happily give you the nickel tour of Maid-Rite's humble beginnings as a converted rail car; the first ever drive-in restaurant; over a century of service and great food served up in unique, comfortable surroundings.
Definitely have the homemade root beer!

I’ve been going here since I was a little tyke. Every single time it visits Springfield it’s the law of the land of Lincoln to stop in and have a couple Maid-Rite’s and a mug of homemade Rootbeer!
