| - The food is okay (better then Micky D's). But you don't really come here for the food. No, you come here for the 1950's car hop experience and root beer. I've been to "car hop's" but they were not the real thing. I believe Dog N' Suds are the only real car hop experience out there. They have the classic trays that attach to the windows of your car, just like in the classic movies. They also, give you root beer in a classic frosted mug. It's so cool to be sitting in your car with a frosted mug and NOT a plastic or paper cup! You feel like you are you a movie from the 1950's. The only thing missing is handsome Jean Dean as your date.
There is a famous story about a dog I had 4 years ago, when I lived in the state. My father put his mug of root beer float in the cup holder and the dog stuck his nose in it. He sucked it down in less the 10 seconds. Then had a taste for root beer like zombies do for brains. It's funny how would get excited when we pull into Dog 'N Suds. He knew, he could possibly sneak a taste. He would hop around and whine! I remember, when we told the car hop gal the story, she laughed. She remembered him when we visited another time that season too. She even asked us if she could give him a little bit of root beer! Which we let her.
The root beer is amazing. The best around. I honestly came here, just for root beer and the car hop experience. I believe they make their own root beer? It has to be? My grandparents made their own root beer when I was growing up. Their root beer tastes just like my grandparents did. I really dislike most root beers from Coke or Pepsi. I can only really enjoy real homemade stuff without all the chemicals. I believe they use real sugar and not the yucky corn syrup stuff in most pop. At least I remember it tasting like that.
I live out of state and this is one of my favorite places to visit, if I am around. Last time, I visited I didn't get a chance. It was February and I knew they closed during the winters. But if you are local hit this place up! Forgot national chain restaurants. This place has cheap food and the food is way better then Micky D's or BK! You can't even get good root beer at the yucky fast food restaurants.
One last thing, this is real! It's not the fake lame-o 1950's kitsch. It's the real car hop experience and it's just really fun!
