The Polk-a-Dot Drive In was founded over 50 years ago. The Drive-In was originally a school bus painted in Rainbow Polk-a-Dots. Lunch was served from a mini-sized kitchen inside the bus.

Today, it is a beautiful 50's Style Drive-In that has become one of the most memorable attractions along Illinois Route 66. Download our menu in PDF format.

Every year on the first Saturday of August, we sponsor a Cruise Nite. You will see some of the finest cruisers in the Midwest show up for this event. Be sure to mark your calendar.
