Cozy Dog Drive In

About Us

Welcome to the Cozy Dog Drive In, home of the Original Hot Dog on a Stick and a Route 66 tradition since 1949.

Our story began in 1946 when Ed Waldmire Jr. and Don Strand created the original Cozy Dog using a unique batter recipe that we still use today. For generations, travelers and locals alike have stopped by to enjoy our famous Cozy Dogs, homemade chili, and a taste of authentic Route 66 hospitality.

Whether you're making your first trip down the Mother Road or returning for another visit, we invite you to pull in, grab a Cozy Dog, and become part of a tradition that's been bringing smiles to travelers for more than 75 years.
