Top Drive-In Restaurants In The USA

(From The Hartford Courant)

HARRY'S PLACE in Colchester, Connecticut has fittingly landed in GOURMET MAGAZINE'S list of 10 GREAT OUTDOOR SPOTS TO GET A MEAL, some being classic drive-in restaurants that will even hang a tray on your rolled-down car window.

You won't find anything fancier than french fries, hamburgers, and coleslaw at most of the spots on this list, but as any connoisseur can tell you, it's worth driving out of your way for a perfectly battered corn dog. Frozen custard, chili dogs, and ribs are also typical offering.

Gourmet's 10 great places for drive-in food are:
THE BEACON DRIVE-IN -- Spartanburg, South Carolina
THE COZY DOG DRIVE-IN -- Springfield, Illinois
HARRY'S PLACE -- Colchester, Connecticut
JAY BEE'S -- Statesville, North Carolina
JOBE'S -- El Reno, Oklahoma
LEON'S -- Milwaukee, Wisconsin
MUG-N-BUN -- Indianapolis, Indiana
SUGAR'S -- Embudo, New Mexico
TASTEE INN AND OUT -- Sioux City, Iowa
TAYLOR'S AUTOMATIC REFRESHER -- Helena, California
