As we drove down N Classen Blvd enjoying the remnants of old Rte 66 in OKC, we HAD to stop here! Unfortunately it was closed, but it was still worth a visit and a few photos.
From the website okcmod.com:
"This great Googie building opened in 1961 as a Quick’s Hamburgers and was owned by the same guy who opened the Charcoal Oven on NW Expressway (which is still a thriving hamburger stop to this day) a few years before. Quick’s opened a second location a few years later, but they both closed around 1973. Neptune Subs then moved in and has been doing a very brisk business ever since. This is one of the best lunch spots along Classen Boulevard in OKC, and that’s saying something in an area filled with Asian restaurants."
