When you’re craving a burger, a mom-and-pop drive-in is the place to go. Here’s a classic little restaurant with the tastiest burgers, fries, salads, and desserts you’ve ever tried. Check out Stewart’s 58 Drive-In:
The little building that houses Stewart's 58 Drive-In has a rich history, starting in the 1960s. It's been home to several different restaurants over the decades, but in 2014, Shannon and Gregg Stewart renovated it and created a local spot with the most delicious drive-in food you'll ever try.
A visit to this retro restaurant is like stepping back in time. Stewart's 58 Drive In is located southeast of Eugene along Highway 58. The address is 47434 OR-58, Oakridge, OR 97463.
There are almost a dozen premium hot dogs on the menu, including the Sonoran Dog, which is wrapped in bacon, then topped with avocado, pico de gallo, pinto beans, and chipotle sour cream. You've never had a hot dog like this before!
You wouldn't normally expect to get a fresh, crisp salad at a drive-in, but Stewart's is the exception. The specialty salads on the menu are all created with the freshest ingredients and savory salad dressings.
In addition to standard French fries, you can choose white sweet potato fries, onion rings or Shannon's home made potato salad as sides to your burger, hotdog, or sandwich.
You'd expect to find tasty shakes and root beer floats at a drive-in, but Stewart's also offers some of the best desserts in town. See what kinds of sweet cakes and sundaes they're serving up today.
The next time you find yourself traveling on Highway 58, stop by Stewart's 58 Drive-In for a tasty meal and delicious dessert. After Labor Day it operates on winter hours, Wednesday through Sunday from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m..
