But the atmosphere is just the beginning of what Wayne’s has to offer. In addition to retro décor, the eatery is known for its tasty fare, which includes burgers, shakes, and other drive-in classics.

Retro fun is always on the menu at Wayne’s; however, for a truly nostalgic experience consider visiting on a Thursday for Classic Cruise Night, which in addition to classic cars, includes lots of activities as well as roller skating car hops.
