The root beer in the cold frozen mug is just amazing. It's just so smooth, and not overpowering. For food I ordered the zip burger and fries. The zip burger is kinda like a sloppy Joe that has mustard, onions, and pickles on it and oh wow was it good. The fries were pretty decent as well. It's also very good price wise. Overall I definitely recommend this place, and will be back in the future.
Probably the best cheese fries I have ever had.
Super great service.
Shout out to Cameron, he’s a rockstar!
I have liked this root beer stand for many years & only drove by to see that it was still there. I feel transported back in time by the 50's style joint where you order and dine in your car. The waitress brings the order to your car window. There exists here a genuine nostalgia that Sonic drive-ins just do not have. My daughter fondly remembers us coming here for a mug or root beer or a root beer float. Small mugs for small kids hands was great because kids can hold their small mugs well and they know their needs were considered when this drive-in bought tiny mugs. I will make it a point to stop in for a mug again soon.
If you like the old school drive in, this is your place! I've loved this place since I was a kid. The whiz burger is my favorite! The black cow is amazing too! There's a sweet lady that always takes our order and always remembers me! I'd give 10 stars if I could!
Old style food drive in and pick up. Great hot dogs and a variety of burgers. Loved their 🍟 fries. Told was a feature of the road there 60+ years. Definitely a must try stop if in the area.
My daughter is a huge root beer float fan and has been begging me to try this place.
It did not disappoint. The customer service was immediately welcoming and friendly and she gave a great explanation of the "favorites".
The root beer was amazing and the root beer float was even better.
The cheeseburger wasn't my favorite (too mushy) but the onion rings more than made up for it.
And who can beat these prices??!!
We'll definitely be back.
Absolutely incredible. A MUST stop if you're going through/staying in the area. Our car hop, Janice, was incredibly nice and informative about the place's history. Both the root beer and food were to die for
Such an awesome little drive-in! We’re new to the Independence area so this was our first time trying this restaurant & it was great! Prices are very reasonable, our carhop was very friendly, and the food was great! Very yummy comfort food. We definitely will be coming back. We are very impressed.

The ordering kiosk works well and isnât cumbersome like some can be. They asked to see if I had any ordering questions. The food came out quickly and was tasty. The dining room was clean and organized. Some people still take pride in their work, I
They don't serve food but all kinds of drinks. It's a very warm, welcoming, engaging, family-feeling spot in the community where kind, funny, open and warm people gather or hang out alone. It has a smaller pub-like or "Cheers" type atmosphere in Inde
While some of the trail names are pretty crazy, this is absolutely a fantastic park for MTB and hiking alike.
The trails are well taken care of and have many different types of features on them. Coupled with the fact that there are many, many miles
Very informative tour of the home of the Truman's!! The inside is the same as it was when Mrs Truman passed in 1982. No picture taking allowed in the home itself. I was surprised to see one reviewer must have snuck in picture taking of their visit. T
