Checked out this diner on a road trip. We wanted to try something other than a chain. The restaurant is clean! The food was good but a little underwhelming with flavor. The serving sizes are generous. I wish I would have tried the ice cream!

Checking over an off the grid system My client/friend said, let's go grab something to eat at this local place Mikes drive in over in W. Frankfort . I said, what do they have? They make all kinds of burgers, and they have their own homemade root beer. You have me sold at root beer. This is a unique place in that you can drive up in your vehicle And they come out and take your order car hop style, but you can't get the frosty mug of root beer unless you're sitting inside. So we went inside and oh that root beer. I don't know if it's unlimited, but I do know she filled my mug three times. I got the roast beef horseshoe, which was drowning in liquid cheese. And my friend got the fried fish sandwich which was, he said, nicely crunchy and flavorful. And did I mention the root beer? I'll have to

Excellent wait staff, very informative when you ask about the menu. We had the club with tater tots, a cheeseburger with cheese curds, and Italian beef sandwich with chili cheese tater tots. All the food was amazing. The homemade root beer was delicious and was worth the stop. The entire place was very clean which was great for us traveling through who appreciated a nice restroom. We would absolutely go back when traveling though again.

Ordered double burger, Italian beef sandwich with fries and chili tots and fried pickles. Burger bun was cold and dried out. Sandwhich was good, fries were ok, tots better at sonic. Wouldn't go back. Waitress was good. Oh and tea was old and sour.
