New owners of The Country Drive In are enjoying the new experience

by Michael Mattison
The new owners of The Country Drive In are continuing the decades old traditions that were established by the several previous owners.
Arturo Rodriguez Enrrigue, Maria Michel and David Enrrigue, along with manager Goretti Enrrigue, opened The Country Drive In doors for the season on June 2.
They are continuing the long-standing menu and keeping the feel of the old-time drive ins with car hop service.
“It is a new challenge,” Arturo said of owning the business. “We lived in Winthrop for over 10 years before moving to Gaylord. We always came to the drive in. We loved the food and service.”
Goretti said, “He saw it was for sale for a couple of years and thought why not buy it. He finally decided last year to do it.”
