Exterior of the
Kennewick, Washington Zip's. There is no set exterior design, as many are often buildings used by previous chains. The Kennewick location, one of a few set-built buildings, has been in existence since 1954 and has been renovated several times.
Zip's Drive-in is a Pacific Northwest-based American fast food restaurant chain founded in Kennewick, Washington in 1953. The chain, whose franchises are locally owned and operated, is named after Robert "Zip" Zuber, the chain's founder.
The chain is known for uniquely-named hamburger sandwiches, some of them known as "Papa Joe", "Belly-Buster" and "Big Zipper". The chain also features hand-cut and breaded cod fillets, as well as their handmade tartar sauce, usually made on-premise. They also offer deep-fried mushrooms, and offer 'tubs' of French fries or tater tots.
A typical Zip's meal, in this case being a Belly Buster, a tub of fries, extra large drink, and hand-made tartar sauce.
Some of their most unusual offerings include a hot dog split in half and served on a hamburger bun with ketchup, mustard and a dill pickle slice. They also offer the Hobo (originally called the Hobo Steak Sandwich), a ⅓-lb hamburger served with barbecue sauce, although it is believed the Ritzville, Washington location still serves the original Hobo Steak, as well as a Cowboy Steak Sandwich.
