One of the first things that incoming freshman see coming to the University of Oklahoma is Classic 50s, a brightly colored drive-in on Lindsey Street. Known by its first name, Classics is a residental hot spot for college students and families living in Norman when they want a greasy hamburger and slushie to drink. Classics is commonly known for it's drink specials, offering varities of specialty drinks like a sprittle, a sprite mixed with a bag of skittles.
This popular fast food joint is a defining mark in Norman, Oklahoma, and provides students with a place to hang out with friends, while enjoying some hot pickle-os (fried pickles). Classics also is a great place to get a job near campus, with employees earning tips when delivering food to the consumer's car. When asked about the job atmosphere, employee Candace Hewitt said it was a favorable place to work.
"There are some rude people, but I think you get that anywhere. It's a good place to work, and I make more money here than anywhere else that I've worked."
While Classics is a fun place to grab a bite to eat, there are a few things that consumers should know. While the drinks are fun and the food is good, the employees there can be a little unfriendly, oftentimes not even saying hello. The wait time on your drinks and food can take up to 7 minutes, and there are more affordable places to eat if you are on a budget. The rising number of feral cats sitting at the back door of the kitchen is a little alarming, but Candace said they are working on getting rid of them.
"I generally like it here," Candace ended the interview with a smile on her face. "It's always busy, but that's okay."
