You can’t miss the enormous barrel sign, the largest one of its kind in the west, as you drive down Gilman Boulevard. It marks the site of the Triple XXX Rootbeer Drive-In restaurant, one of the only two remaining sites of the once nationwide drive-in chain started in the 1940’s. Today, it is an Issaquah treasure, serving generously sized hamburgers, shakes, and root beers while surrounding you with 1950’s nostalgia.
The vintage feeling extends into the parking lot where there are regular car shows & gatherings of classic automobile and motorcycle enthusiasts from March through December. View the car show schedule on their website or Facebook page.
