People Will Drive From All Over Iowa To Belmond Drive-In For The Nostalgia Alone
Remember what it was like going through a classic drive-through restaurant? You didn’t even need to get out of your car – simply sail up to the window, make your order, and minutes later you’re chowing down on delicious, fresh-made food. For those feeling nostalgic, you don’t need to settle for a generic fast-food burger. Iowa is seeing a renaissance in drive-through restaurants, and one location in a quiet part of the state is worth the drive from anywhere.
The small city of Belmond might seem like it's in the middle of nowhere - but one nostalgic restaurant just might make it a destination.
They say that you can tell how good a roadside restaurant is by how many pickup trucks you see lined up outside, and Belmond Drive-In seems to be living up to that.
It's only been in its current location since 2014, but you may be fooled into thinking it's been sitting here since the 1950s - it's a near-perfect time capsule.
If they have the Hot Beef on offer, don't miss it - this pile of hot roast beef topped with toast, gravy, and mashed potato is a one-of-a-kind messy treat.
