Jones 88 dip

Homey atmosphere, friendly service, varied menu, and delicious food. Even the bathrooms are pleasant! Definitely recommend stopping if you're wandering through that part of KY.

Today we took a step back into the simpler life, similar to my early teens; a country Dairy Dip/Diner in Marion, KY. It gave us a Happy Days or Grease vibe; memories from our youth!

Everyone was very sociable and courteous; greeting everyone. You'd think they knew us! Lol The music was a 60's - 90's mix and was fun to listen to, and think back on younger days.

There were alot of options to eat; from burgers and fries, pizza, meat and 3 plate lunches, to shrimp, fish and even steak dinners...plus all the dairy dip favorites; cones, sundaes and milk shakes galore!

Marvin had the large chocolate shake, I chose butterscotch!
Omg, they tasted like grandma's, made with home churned ice cream and rich cocoa! Mine tasted like a creamy Werther's, in milkshake form.

They were delicious...and huge! I think a small would have sufficed for me, had I know how big they were!

I had fried Blue Gill, with fries and coleslaw. It was moist, flaky, not greasy and delicious! It tasted so fresh, I could almost imagine mom frying it up after a day of us fishing!

Marvin got the Western Burger with fries and slaw. It was juicy and tasted awesome; like it just came off our back yard grill!

Mom got the shrimp basket, with fries and slaw. She said it was really good, but she wouldn't share a piece, to let me find out for my self! Lol

Our server was quick to respond; our glass was never empty and our service was great!

It was a great afternoon; I highly recommend them, if you are ever out riding country roads near Marion, KY and looking for a great place to eat!

We love nostalgic diners and this one suited us well. Named for the Oldsmobile Rocket introduced in 1952, the year the diner opened. At first it was an ice cream & shakes Drive In, which was a new style of dining that Jones & his partner observed on their driving trips to Chicago to pick up new Oldsmobiles for their car dealership. It quickly became a full service diner & a local favorite. The building was added to several times, overtaking most of the parking space for new Oldsmobiles at the dealership. There is no longer a dealership, just this quaint and very friendly diner. They have a huge menu and 8-10 daily blue-plate specials. Buddy got the Hot Brown with mashed potatoes (of course) & fried Okra. He said it was the best roast beef he had EVER had. I had the low carb chicken topped with Swiss, onions, & green peppers with a side of green beans (cooked with ham, naturally). Valerie topped up our teas several times and brought out the 2 page ice cream & shake menu. After difficult deliberation, he chose butter pecan. It was fabulous. We will return if we’re in Marion, KY again!

I really liked it for being my first time there the wings really were good they takes exactly like my favorite wings from Rally's my girl got the strawberry salad I like the chicken that was on it but for the price I paid I would have rather have the all you can eat crab oh well next time but I like the wings

Great place. Lived the food and ask for Jordan. Very knowledgeable on the menu and is always willing to help ya pick something out. Never disappointed when waited on by him.

Delicious. All meals ordered were well prepared and flavorful.
Pictured is the Tex Mex Salad. Shell was delicious. Vegetables were crisp. Meat was cooked perfectly.
Parents, this restaurant does not skimp on kids meals.
Restrooms and dining area were decently clean.
Staff was friendly.

Very good home town restaurant. Employees are great the food and service is Awesome as well. Recommend it to anyone.

Drove by, dropped in, first time visit. Good food, large portion size. Everyone was friendly and asked us to come again.

Give them a try.

Love this place!!!! We've been here many times and they don't ever disappoint!! We had a video call dinner date night with my husband who was working out of town and the young lady that waited on us knew that my kids and myself hadn't seen their dad in a while and she let us sit and talk away for a whole 30 min. After they closed and she didn't say anything about us leaving. Thank you!! That was really awesome what you did for us we were having so much fun the time got away from me. Great family place!!!

Great burgers and the best onion rings I’ve had in years. It’s way better than McDonald’s, cheaper than McDonald’s, and they never get my order wrong. Love this place.

Great little hole in the wall. Found a bluegill sandwich!!!

Absolutely mind blowing country style cooked food

I got the ham and cheese stromboli and I give it a 10/10.

Lucky find this place here! I'm sure that they have a full menu, but we went for the 'dips' the flavor selection was very impressive boasting flavors ranging from cotton candy to Snickers and even BANANA PUDDING! The staff was very friendly offering up a recommendation when I was unable to decide. I live in Alabama. But when I come back up that way.... I'm will definitely be stopping by for another Banana pudding milkshake.

Good food, large portion size, amazing staff, service dog friendly. It a bit off the beaten path but we had a wonderful experience and I enjoyed the food. It looks to have a good local crowd. Will definitely come back.
