The Drive-In

Located a mile and a half from the ferry dock, we are a must stop (and taste) on Washington Island. Burgers are our specialty and our ice cream is a real treat! 

On our lawn we have glider swings for adults, a sandbox with toys for children, yellow umbrellas and shaded picnic areas.

Alby’s Nest tiki bar featuring local and domestic beer, Island orchard hard cider and a variety of wines is located directly behind The Albatross Drive-In.

The Albatross is an Island landmark – a destination – an institution that has served generations. Destroyed by fire in 2002, it was rebuilt by popular demand, and our family continues to bring “smiles” to our devoted customers year after year.

We love serving you! We love what we do!

Our Menu

Burgers are our specialty. Our meat is ground fresh and the patties are formed by hand. Our ice cream treats are to die for and include 60 flavors of custom made shakes and malts! There is a lot to choose from but we are a custom shop – you think it and we’ll make it!

Warning!

We are not fast!

We are good,

We are cheerful,

We are courteous,

But we are not fast!

For fast, go to Chicago.

North of the Tension Line you are,

So relax,

Take time to smell the flowers -

And give us time to prepare

Your order with T.L.C.

(Tender Loving Care).
