Regardless of the popularity or legends about Rawley's they maintain the drive-in mom and pop feel. Counter order, freshly made classic drive-in food. Burgers, hot dogs, chicken sandwiches, fries and more. All absolutely delicious. Small eat in area with table delivery of your counter order. Looking forward to visiting again!

Best onion rings ever! Can't go wrong with the works hot dog. Great mix of flavors. Chili fries are ambrosial. All the fries were covered and the chili is sublime. Grumpy old man took my order but the food made up for his lack of finesse
