This historic roadhouse is on route66 in a very small town called Hydro Oklahoma. You can see it from Interstate 40 which is the highway that robbed all the traffic from old Us hwy 66. Lucille's dates back to the dust bowl when it was a busy stop for travelers passing thru on their way to brighter futures. This style of "living quarters over the shop" businesses were very common in the 1930's and the Oklahoma historical society has registered and restored this site as a historical marker. It is not open for business however, but approximately thirty miles west, in the town of Weatherford Ok. there is a new "Lucille's Roadhouse" built to resemble the original and pay it homage. They are famous for their old timey soda fountain and fried onion burgers. But if I had to recommend an onion burger stand I would steer you to El Reno Ok. and a little greasy hole in the wall called "Robert's Grill". It's not much to look at, but has always had the best fried onion burgers in the state of Oklahoma!
