E's Inn American Restaurant

Great little hamburger joint straight out of the 50's - 60's locally owned and operated by original owners. Reasonable price with a menu that go on forever, check it out on their website. I think the menu inside the cafe is bigger then the menu online Service is great. Parking in front. Really, it is worth going out of your way just for their food.

Excellent place to grab a bite to eat and just sit back and visit with friends. The menu is extensive with everything from Burgers and Patty Melts to Fried Mushrooms, curly fries, fried okra and tons more. Even Tacos and burritos!! Everything Ive had here has been fantastic and I always top it off with a Cherry Limeaid. Friendly staff and great atmosphere. Prices are average with the special burgers being a little higher but overall a great place with fair prices. Would recommend as a must try mom n pop shop!

A blast from the past. Home town fast food at its finest. Friendly staff, delicious bites, and super clean. Dining room is now open until 7:30, yes!!! Loved the Frito pie and brownie sundae. Will be back for sure.

Disclaimer: I gave them a 3 on the atmosphere because I go through the drive-thru on most occasions. Now that I think about I could give E's Inn a 5 on atmosphere with my experiences and view from the drive-thru. First, I am always surprised that the line in the drive-thru isn't longer due to the fact that E's has amazing burgers. The best in town. If you haven't had one, you are missing out. E's is on 60Hwy on the West end of town just before Main in Republic MO. When I moved to Republic and would drive by E's memories of the burger places that were around from the 1960s thru 1980s in Kansas City, Kansas would fill my head. I had not tried E's, actually, for almost a year after moving to Republic. One day during the summer of 2010, a good friend, William, and I were talking best burgers. I was mainly listening. William has tried many burgers everywhere, not just here in the Ozarks, everywhere! William asked me if I had tried E's Inn. I answered, "I am never sure if they are open, I very rarely see any customers." Well, my answer sparked something in William. The very condensed version of Williams' response can be summed up with " ... best top 5 burgers anywhere. " We did not go to E's that day, but 2 weeks had not gone by, I got a call from William, "we're going to lunch at E's. " I finally experienced "the best burger" without vicariously tasting one by my friends description of an E's Inn burger. E's has single burgers, doubles, triples, and some different burgers, cheese burgers, patty melts, etc. You can get fresh tomatoes, lettuce, pickles, onions, everything on them. They have fries, onion rings, shakes, and malts. I could go on and on. They have full selection on their menu, whether dining inside. There is plenty of space surrounded by a peace I have never felt when eating out. One must feel for themselves! When dining in, you will be greeted with positive personalities, attention, and patience that is second to none. It doesn't matter which employee that you encounter when walking into E's. You will get the exact same, every time you go there. The owner greeting you is a privilege. He is as genuine as it gets. This man truly gives you his gratitude for choosing to eat at E's. In my opinion, I feel that is why this place still has its doors open and still has the freshest cooked to order than anywhere else. I will communicate, not in any way a complaint. When you order, your food may take a little longer than you think it should. Let me say this, every second that goes by and maybe a little impatience has started, remember they food you order is going to be hot or cold to your expectations or in most cases will exceed your expectation. Every single time. If E's Inn is suggested along with a few other places to eat, I always choose E's. They have a perfect formula for quality of food, service, and price. The cost to eat at E's is not a shock. It's a surprise and little relief compared to what I pay for at like places. Take yourself, your family, or whoever and try E's Inn in Republic Mo. You will not be disappointed. To the owners of employees, thank you for everything. You give more than amazing food. I do not have to wonder why and how you have weathered the many years when many places like yours have closed. See you soon.

Update- E's in was great again! We had bacon cheeseburgers, curly fries and regular fries. So good. The guy working the drive-thru came out twice in the rain. Excellent service. I forgot to take pictures, I was excited about the bacon cheeseburger. You will have to take my word for it.... it was great! I had the quarter pound burger, my wife had the slightly smaller double, both great! Original review - E's Inn was good, I was impressed. They were really busy tonight and I had to wait in line just to get into the lot. It was worth the wait. We had the 1/3 pound burger with bacon, Suzie Q's, crispy chicken sandwich and fries. All good. Old style drive-in food. There were people standing out front getting ice cream cones and I saw on the menu they have butterscotch... I will be trying that soon. I'm also looking forward to trying the chili dogs and the onion rings! The staff was super friendly, food was hot and fresh and you can call it in for curbside service. (See the phone number in my pic) Heads up- I saw a sign "In God we trust, all others pay cash... so I'm guessing it's cash only. Old school!

I did the drive through because I was unable to get out of my vehicle, due to a back issue. When they come and took my order, I explained that I really appreciated them coming to my car because of my back. So when my food was done, they brought it out to my car instead of handing it to me through the window.

Great little local diner. Big menu for the whole family. Mini tacos were great. Burger is truly a great one. Staff were super friendly, attentive to drive thru customers, great prices...will comeback many times now. Thank you!
