The menu is a bit confusing to find what you like because it is has a garage theme to it. The food, however, is top notch. Very good food at very fair prices, and an order of fries is enough for the whole table to share. Has a nice staff who are always very friendly and attentive. This place is definitely a favorite of ours and we usually dine there when in the area.

Owners and management are super rude and not helpful. Food is terrible, microwaved version of whatever you’re ordering and the place is so noisy the entire neighborhood has to put up with racing motors and cars peeling out at all hours on the weekends. Owners have no regard for property owners who have to LIVE nearby and their peaceful right of enjoyment of their property that they have PAIDFORANDLIVEIN!!!

This place has gone down hill few years ago, so when I heard they re opened it I also heard wasn’t that great. They use to be known for their burgers and shake. Last I went there before they closed was really gross. I may give them another chance since they have a new manager. Maybe…

This a drive in with great food but the best are all classic cars there to view. Be early bcos parking is scarce bcos all the classic car displays. Beauty at it’s best. It a great night out and eye opening. Service is great too. You might even find your dream car sale, at a price. These classics are worth more than some folks pay for a home. Lol

Food is good, nice to see the new owners kept the place the way it should be — A drive in We were there and outside visiting with a man who owned a really cool older 30 – 40’s car, He asked the waitress for a Blue Top sticker for his window, the waitress went and asked the owner. She came back and told the car owner NO ?? Maybe just me but I found this… the owner of the car had food(so he spent money) and the Blue Top owner does not want to give out stickers that are most likely less than 50 cents each to get free advertising? I saw this business in a whole different light after seeing this.

Was curious about this place as it has been a staple in the area for a long time. Awesome car shows, but very bad food. My friend brought us food and I actually had to verify where the food came from after I ate so that I never eat there again. The bun was terribly soggy and the burger was dry and super hot on the inside(almost as though it had been microwaved). The fries were stale cold after only a five minute drive that my friend made to his home. It saddens me that such a US41 legend is so bad. I’d rather eat McDonald’s and drive by to see nice cars from the street. Save your time and money and go anywhere else.

My wife ordered a BLT and got two pieces of bread with bacon and mayo. Bringing the omission of the LETTUCE and TOMATO to the waitresses attention, she exclaimed Oh! Did you want that too? I almost fell out of my seat. I got two hot dogs and they came on buns that were cold and hard. The hot dogs tasted like ball park franks, very salty, but the waitress claimed they were custom made for the blue top drive in. The ambience is wonderful but the food is overpriced and the quality is very poor. Unless things change there that place will unfortunately go down the drain. PS they offered to provide water for my three dogs«Timex, Rolex, and Seiko» but never produced the proffered water. Oh well!

Unfortunately this place didn’t taste the best and after hearing a waitress make inappropriate racial slurs with a group of other customers I definitely won’t be back

Had the Polish sausage and fries. Both were very bland. The service was good. But that doesn’t make the food any bettor. Will probably not go back.

Food is marginal at best. Very few places to sit down and eat. On the weekends the cars are cool, but too many old guys just sitting around and not making room for paying customers.

I’m sorry to say that we were disappointed today when we ate there. The burgers were frozen and the meat was tough and not very tasty at all. The fries were not cooked all the way. They were hot, just not cooked all the way. I hope the owners read these reviews and make some changes. They could have a gold mine there. I would suggest they use fresh ground beef and hand make their burgers and use fresh potatoes and make fresh cut fries. Maybe use a vent hood and get the smell out into the street to draw in more people. I wish them luck with their business, but they do need to make some changes.

Great food! Place was packed the night we went in. Got a seat quickly and service was good and quick. If you have a nice car great place to show off. Will definitely go back

ofcourse the cars are what make it an awesome place to go, but… I went on their 2nd opening day with my nephew, and we got approached by the waitress outside and she asked us if we wanted to order. we both asked for a bacon cheeseburger n fries. I understand they were busy, but… an hour and 15 minutes and we finally get our food? it got handed to us cold. the fries, the slice of cheese was still unmelted! the average burger place in town serves them bigger than what we got too. for the price(which wasn’t exactly cheap), you think it would atleast compete with that um… legendary burger joint across the street. we didn’t even get asked if we wanted mayo or ketchup packets either, so needless to say… it was a joke. i’ll give it a 3 star, only because the cars are better than the food.

Unless you are coming to gawk at classic cars, do yourself a favor and don’t come at all. After years of waiting for someone to buy the Blue Top and turn it around — what a disappointment. Blue Top is a refurbished Diner/Drive-In. Guy Fieri would call it a dive, too, if he tasted the food. Fries are frozen, burgers probably are too. And if you order a Fried Egg Burger like I did, you might get a scrambled egg burger. Good lord. I can go to another new burger place(named after Michael Stivic, hint hint) and get a burger made with fresh meat and a FRIED egg for less. Other family members got mayo, mustard and ketchup on their sponges — err, buns — and they got SOGGY. Yuck. When the best part of a burger joint’s meal is the fried zucchini stick, watch out. Like I said, go to gawk at cars but bring your own food. Ain’t that a shame? My tears fall like rain. Blue Top’s the one to blame.
