College Street Café
Description
Step inside College Street Café and you’ll feel it immediately… the nostalgia, the Route 66 magic, and the kind of comfort food that tastes like home. 🍳🍔
This week, Joy sits down with owner Mary Lou Meierotto, who stumbled into running this beloved Springfield diner completely by accident and ended up carrying on a legacy that dates back to the 1950s. They talk about everything that makes this place special, from hand-patted burgers and the chili-and-grilled-cheese combo everyone raves about, to the regulars who’ve been coming here for decades and still insist on sitting at the counter.
It’s small-town comfort, bighearted hospitality, and classic Route 66 Americana all rolled into one cozy booth. Pull up a stool… this one will make you smile. 🙂
