Mugs-Up Root Beer is a unique and beloved institution that has been serving customers for over 60 years. This tiny, retro-style drive-in offers loose meat burgers, hot dogs, and crispy fries, all made to order. Their signature root beer is a must-try, served in a frosty mug or a gallon jug for a sweet treat. The friendly service and nostalgic atmosphere make it a welcomed change from the usual eatery. The car hop style is old school, and the staff is known for being polite and efficient, even with the regular crowd of customers. Whether diners choose the Whiz Burger, the Super Burger, or the all beef hot dog, they can expect comfort food that brings back memories. The tots are cooked to delicious perfection every time, and there are even harder-to-find items like breaded mushrooms. Mugs-Up Root Beer is a fantastic spot for families and anyone looking for a delicious and different dining experience. The experience is enhanced by the nostalgic way orders are delivered on a tray that hooks onto the car window, making it a true gem in the dining scene.
