My impression of a roadhouse is a rundown bar/grill on a US highway, from
the after WWII/before interstate highways days. Populated by local
layabouts, drinking long-neck local beer, and adventurous types driving
to distant cities in their new '46 Chevys. A couple of Indian
motorcycles parked out front completes the scene.
Am I close?
