Venues & Event Locations
The western end of the county offers one of the more characterful starting points: Goetz Sky-Vu Drive In over in Orangeville carries decades of American food culture in its layout, and The Burger Bus's classic burger service slots into that setting without missing a beat. Moving across toward Rock Grove, Windy Acres Golf Course is the kind of venue where people already arrive hungry and in a good mood — a cheeseburger at the turn or after the back nine is exactly the right reward. Stephenson County's regional course at Park Hills Golf Course draws players from across the area, and a food truck on those grounds gives the whole day a finishing touch it doesn't otherwise have.
Illinois does not have health or fire reciprocity — each local jurisdiction issues its own food-truck permits.
The Burger Bus and our local catering partners carry current health, fire, and business licensing. We're glad to share our documentation with your venue or organizer on request.
