Why all the love?
We make your food fresh as you order it! We use only the best products to ensure our customers enjoy the best quality food we can serve. We believe we have the best coney you will ever taste. Pair that with homemade root beer made with 100% cane sugar and an order of fresh-cut french fries, and you’ve got a meal you’ll love!

We offer eight different kinds of sandwiches, over ten different kids of side orders, five dinners, a variety of soft drinks (including our delicious homemade root beer), milkshakes, and hand-dipped floats.

Toppings include cheese, lettuce, onion, tomato, pickle, mustard, ketchup, or Miracle Whip.

Tim S.
A classic old-school drive-in. The food is vintage drive-in fare: coneys, fries, floats, and homemade root beer. Service was quick, and the portions were good. Prices are reasonable. If you’re looking to indulge in a bit of culinary nostalgia or just want some fresh-cut french fries, look no further.
Ron H.
Great place to eat. Old-time drive-in. Service was fast. Food came out quickly. They came right to my car. They also have a drive-thru window. Very good price. Very nostalgic.
Mark B.
Enjoyed another great meal at the drive thru. Sad to see the season come to an end soon.
Stephanie Z.
A hometown favorite with carhops and homemade root beer! They also have a newly remodeled menu.
Roxanne B.
Mac & cheese bites were cheesy goodness! Staff was friendly and fun – great sense of humor! Oh – and the fries with vinegar! Just like I used to get at the fair!
Matt D.
Nice place to grab a bite if in the area. The staff was really friendly and patient with us even though they had a line out to the road.
Ashland-Wooster Drive-In
Our History
The business was opened by Barb and Bob Fordyce as an A&W Rootbeer Stand. It has a very limited menu consisting of hot dogs, shredded chicken sanwiches, popcorn, Jones potato chips, and homemade rootbeer and orange drink.

Joann and Bud Bemiller bought the business and ran it until 1984, when they sold it to their son Steve and his wife, Deb.
the A&W franchise was dropped, and Ashland-Wooster Drive-In was born and brought the addition of the drive thru, many new menu items, and a new look.
Steve Bemiller sold the business to us, Mindi and Frank Keener. We are excited to continue providing the excellent food the community has come to love. Our goals are to provide a great place to work for our employees and to give our clients the best customer service possible.
