• Red Rooster Drive-In, 1566 Route 22, Southeast, +1 845 279-8046. Just north of Brewster on Route 22. Crowd-pleasing drive-in has been serving up burgers and shakes for decades. Cheap eats, but oh so good. After you wash down the burger and fries with a soft-serve ice cream, walk (if you still can) next door for a round of mini golf.
