Geocache Description:

Medium sized Lock and Lock locate where Cozy's drive in was once located.

****HELP!!! This cache needs SWAG! This cache was muggled recently and I have replaced the cache container and log book, but did not have any swag to put in it. So please help repopulate this cache's swag reserve.****

Now stands a modern looking building which is now a BBQ restaurant, with pretty good food. It wasn't always this way. Not too many years ago stood a small building which was Cozy's Drive in, and had been serving food for near 50 years!


In 2004 the circle grill was opened up by the current owners of Cozy's driving in, in an effort to keep the business alive. the new building was no long a drive in configuration, with a lager building with eat in dining and a new modern look. Inside sports many old license plate spanning many years and a mural on the wall of the original Cozy's drive in.

**Sorry about the small picture. It is the only one I could find of it as the "Circle Grill"**

The Circle Grill changed hands at least once, then in 2008 (I think, it may have been 2007) the circle grill once again changed hands, but was now called Mr C's, with an awful black, red and white loud checkered paint scheme. I do not believe it lasted as Mr C's for very long because it was up for sale again in 2008.

After that it became a BBQ restaurant with a much more mellow and comfortable to the eye paint scheme. But with only one BBQ dish offered, it went up on the for sale list again.

Inside view:

It is a modern building but still captures that retro feel when you walk in.

The building then changed hands at least twice, but now seems to be taking a strong foot hold with the newest owner. The food is the best I have tasted so far, and they now offer many BBQ dishes on their menu. I just had the BBQ Cheddar Cheese Burger with some corn fritters, (which I hadn't had in forever!) while repairing this cache from being muggled.

So take a load of during your hunting, and have some BBQ, and sign the log book!!

Note: The current owner is aware of the cache and has given permission for it to be there. Also, Please stay on the restaurant side of the white wall as the lawn above is owned by the owner of the house there. there is no need to walk on his lawn to retrieve this cache.
