Double giant cheeseburger, hot dog, chicken tenders, onion rings, small fries, and two large soft drinks: $28My wife and I both commented, "good luck getting all that for $28 where we live in PA!"Granted, it's fast food quality (hence the 3 stars), but it's just as good as anything you get from a fast food chain (I'd say the flavor of the burger and chicken tenders was comparable to Burger King but no where near as greasy). Note: since this isn't a chain, you can get either Coke or Pepsi products. Which I think is a plus!It did take about 10 minutes or so for us to receive our food (which may seem like an inconvenience in today's 'drive thru/immediate delivery world') but I didn't mind it so much knowing the food was being made fresh.It's drive-thru only so there's no ambience other than the fun sign out front (attached), but the older lady attending to the drive thru was a kind and pleasant woman who provided cordial service.I'd recommend this place if you are either A) craving fast food or B) you're driving Route 66, like we were this day. But be patient and enjoy the nostalgia of a bygone era.

The food has for 33 years been worth the wait because they use fresh ingredients and cook fresh on order the right way! Not to say they're slow but busy!! The owners had it since he worked there as a chain and they don't operate if he isn't in the building!! The fries remind me of IN N OUT and the burgers are 20x better They have unique frozen custard flavor burst cones and cyclones !! Fried pickles, strawberry limeades, buffalo burgers!! Kids meals have came with a 50s cruiser car shaped box since I was little.... Gene and Gayle and the whole crew do a fascinating job here Last one left!!

I always struggle with scores of 3-4 for just "decent" food worth the price. I would give this place a 4 if the wait to order and the wait for the food arrival were better.My giant burger was freshly prepared with fresh vegetables. The onion rings looked very tasty but there was no taste-very bland.The establishment was very clean, even the restroom. Live plants are everywhere and are very healthy-well cared for.We drove from Wagoner County. If I was in town and hungry, I might come here to eat.This is not a burger "worth the drive."

Ate there on a busy Sunday afternoon. Had a couple burgers, tots and KuKu fries. The burgers and tots were good, but I wouldn't say great. The KuKu fries were waffle fries with chili, cheese, green onion, and a sour cream packet. They were delicious. The building has been there a good long time, so the layout and chairs/booths are not really designed to accommodate large crowds or bigger bodies. There are two drive thrus though, one on each side of the building. I won't go out of my way to go there again, but would eat there again if I was close. If you're going through Miami, you should stop and try it.

Just had malts here (delicious) because only drive through was open. Would love to try their food but needed to get out of the car if we were going to have a meal. Really cool looking classic place. Seems the indoor seating has been closed for a while. We took pics and continued happily on the Mother Road butterscotch and banana malts.

Great burgers and Rte 66 atmosphere at Wayland's Ku-Ku burger! The vintage sign drew is in the first time we were through here 25 years ago. The delicious burgers and experience keeps us coming back again and again.I usually get the Buffalo burger BBQ style (BBQ sauce pickles and onions). It also comes regular style (mustard lettuce tomato). Either one is delicious, so you can't go wrong ordering either one. I also add a slice of cheddar cheese to mine just because :) Tater tots are fried when you order them, and so are always crispy and delicious. Ditto the fries (regular and curly). Depending on the time of year you visit, you might get lucky and Wayland will have Fried Green Tomatoes on the menu - we lucked out and had 2 orders of those delicious FGT! Today (15 Jul 2021) the lobby is still closed for pandemic reasons. So we lined up with the rest of the folks at the drive thru and ordered there. They take and make 2 orders at a time, so everything is hot and fresh when handed through the window. The line moves reasonably quickly though so just crank up the tunes and have a little patience :) 5 get your burgers here when getting your kicks on Route 66 stars!

My family loves KuKu, especially when we were younger! It's great for kids because they have their kids meals come in these cute little cardboard vintage cars.Be sure you are aware of the hours! Lately, it hasn't always seemed to be as advertised (I think the owner has been dealing with some health stuff??), so I'd honestly recommend just calling first to see if they're open. I like to get the frito chili pie. Sometimes it has been better than others, but it's usually still good and filling. Fairly standard overall. For some reason I like to add their ketchup to it. I guess I like that it adds a bit extra flavor and moisture, since theirs can seem a bit of a drier type of chili pie. On my last visit, it seemed like there were more fritos than chili, so I would have liked to have a bit more of the meat and beans part. In my opinion, the ice cream is what makes KuKu's a cool spot. I love all of the flavored soft serve options, like butterscotch, cotton candy, and several more. What they do is have the ice cream part be vanilla soft serve but there's syrup neatly swirled, thanks to the machine, of the flavor you choose. If you've saved a decent amount of room, don't miss the hot fudge sundae. Sooo good! Vanilla ice cream topped with a nice and thick, flavorful hot fudge. You can also have whipped cream and nuts, which I always do. It's a respectable portion... you could probably share it with someone, but that's no fun!! ;)The only thing with ordering ice cream is if you do it as takeout, like I did on my last visit, be sure to remind them to give you your food first before the ice cream!!! We ended up sitting in the car waiting for our meals while they had already given us our sundaes... so a bit melted by the time it was all said and done.4 stars because it seems to have a few quirks these days, but still a fun (and for me, nostalgic) spot on Route 66.

Great stop in rural Oklahoma. The building has the feel of an old school mom & pop burger shop that is a staple of the local community. Mostly drive thru with the interior only open on select days. Staff and service were excellent. We got a double giant cheese burger, double giant bacon cheese burger, small tater tot, small mozzarella sticks and a large cherry limeade for around $28. Burgers were great and made fresh to order. Limeade was great - not overly sweet as some can be - with the infamous nugget ice (for the girlies)! I would recommend to anyone that finds themselves in Miami, OK.
