A New Mexico themed diner. Interestingly, it is on Southwest Avenue. Their slogan is something like, A taste of the Southwest on Southwest.

Celebrating its 61st year under four ownerships, Carl's Drive-In at 9033 Manchester Road in Brentwood, Missouri, a southwest suburb of St. Louis, has been satisfying customers since car hops went out of style. With limited seating (16 seats) and limited parking, this Route 66-themed and cash only American diner specializes in hamburgers, cheeseburgers, hot dogs, foot-long chili dogs and house-made root beer in frosted mugs made by the original IBC root beer recipe, which Carl Meyer bought in 1975. A gas station in 1918, the building was converted into a hot dog stand in 1943. Carl Meyer bought the property in 1959, named it Carl's Drive-In and offered curb service and a walk-up window. The car hop era ended in 1969. Frank Cunetto bought the business in 1987 and long-time customer Mike Franklin assumed ownership in 2015. The names have changed and the car hops are gone but Carl's root beer and the burgers and dogs are as delicious as ever. My wife and I managed to find a couple of seats for an early lunch. My wife had a bowl of chili and a fish fillet sandwich with fries. I had a bowl of chili and a double bacon cheeseburger with pickles, onion, mustard, lettuce, tomato and ketchup with fries. I only wish I had room for a foot-long chili dog. Naturally, we washed it all down with frosted mugs of root beer. And we capped it all off with two Ted Drewes concretes, chocolate and strawberry. It brings back fond memories of the 1950s, when drive-ins and car hops were the rage.

After a morning at the fabulous St. Louis Zoo, we opted for lunch at Hi-Pointe Drive-Inn. First, realize that this restaurant small and is shoehorned into a very small lot. The parking lot is a good indication as the restaurant is likely crowded if the lot is full. At HPDI you order your food and pay before choosing your table. If the weather is nice, sitting outside is a good choice. You order is brought to you upon its preparation. The venue is attractive yet spartan. The construction is, in part, a combination of shipping containers. Hi-Point Drive-In may be hard to find if you donât know where the theatre of the same name is located. Traffic in the parking lot only flows one way, as thereâs insufficient room for two way traffic.

We did a take out pizza from here for lunch. The crust and the flavors were very good. When I picked it up, the decor of the place was very cute. I would try it for lunch.
