Welcome to Paul’s Drive In – A South Kansas City Landmark since 1960

In an ever-changing world, it’s comforting to know some things never change, like Paul’s Drive In. We’ve been in business since the 1960s serving authentic smash burgers made with fresh, never frozen, beef.

Come in and try our signature Big Boy burger with all the fixings. Other local favorites include our Italian pork steak and tenderloin sandwiches. And of course, there are crispy french fries, onion rings, and tater tots, not to mention fried mushrooms to round out your meal.

If you have any room left, we serve the best soft serve in the area. Enjoy a classic cone in vanilla, chocolate, or zebra, a shake or old-school malt, a cyclone, or a soda float. Don’t forget our banana split that’s perfect for sharing!

Food was amazing!

Idk what more else to say. 😂

Haven’t had this good of a burger in awhile.

Wow!

I have been eating here for over 50 years! This is a good ‘ole hamburger stand! The Italian steaks can’t be beat. The Big Boy burgers are awesome as well. Not to mention the tenderloins and the tater tots!

A Double Big Boy from Paul’s is easily one of the best burgers in the city! I can’t recommend it highly enough!
