"Nom nom nom -C"

- Halie H.

"Car hops are friendly and fast. The atmosphere is definitely from a long forgotten era of 1950s rive in style resturant. Food is still made to order, fresh fries, burgers hot off the press, and ice cream that is soft serve but still thick and creamy, just like real ice cream should be. I absolutely love the style this place brings and the service to boot."

- David T.

"This place is awesome. I love the texas toothpicks and hickory burger. Don't forget the banana split for dessert. Very good prices. I can feed a hungry group of 6 for under $75!!! Variety a little bit of everything. I'll be going back"
