Lena Drive Inn

Awesome old-school kinda place! Simple and small only four tables outoors, but most people stay in their cars, after all, it is a drive-in!. Fast, efficient and friendly service, and D E L I C I O U S AND WELL-SERVED burgers!

We drove an hour from Dubuque to go here and I really enjoyed it! There will be no mistaking this food for a 5 star culinary experience... It's not. That isn't what this place is for. It's best at reminding us what drive ins were like when we were kids and for that it has NO EQUAL! The food is good the service is great the staff is fun. I do not know of another place like it. I WILL come back.... Several times... I know it.

Cool place in Lena that checks all my boxes every time I go there to eat. Keep up the good work, great food, and excellent customer service!Food: 5/5

What a fun step back in time it is to go here. The service is fast and the food is good. The prices are reasonable also. Try their turtle sundae it is delicious.

What a blast from the past! My husband and I used to go to the one in Mt. Carroll since that's where we're from. I miss those big colored ball lights on top! We'll definitely be back!

The service was outstanding. We were in town from Chicago. We were there only for ice cream and we decided we wanted some cheese curds. The fryers were off but they still got our order. They were amazing. Sadly we were leaving Wednesday and we planned on eating there. But it's closed on Wednesdays. We will definitely be back next time we are in the area.

So glad the Lena Drive-Inn has reopened. The Pizza Burgers are fantastic. Our server was a very nice young man, very clean cut and courteous. He even remembered that we said we might order ice-cream after we were done with our meal. He must have been watching his customers and came up to us at the perfect time. I'm glad the legend lives on. What a great family fun place to eat at!

Friendly and fast staff! We got ice cream and it was exactly how we remembered to be...DELICIOUS! They even offered a pup cup for our fur baby who loved it. Highly recommend the small town atmosphere, nostalgic drive in feel, and great eats!

The food was terrible. Onion rings were little dried up burnt oil pieces..i was in shock when we got them an burger was tastless. We spent 27.00 on 2 orders of burnt up onion rings, a plain burger an 2 ice creams which was the only thing that was good. I do not recommend this place an we will never return. Service was good tho.

Service was top notch! The owner and server greeted us and were very friendly. The owner came out halfway through eating to make sure everything was good and thank us for stopping by. The food came out within minutes and was delicious! Don't normally write reviews, but they deserve all the kudos!
