We are nostalgic. We yearn for the days of Route 66, diners, and classic cars. Imagine if all that was wrapped up into a restaurant? Well, that's just what's going on at The Classic Garage Restaurant in Wisconsin. Texas transplants and business investors have taken what used to be a service station and re-imagined it as a great restaurant. Today, it serves as both a restaurant and Cadillac showroom. Even if you aren't a car guy or gal, this place is unlike anything you have ever seen and you will absolutely love it.
Tucked in Eau Claire, The Classic Garage is a must-visit. The building is inspired by the style of a 1956 Texaco station, down to the green stripes running throughout.
The interior looks like a classic 1950s diner, down to the checkered floor.
