The Museum does not have a restaurant or food service. During race events, practices days, etc. there is a small food stand, the Coca-Cola Pit Stop, in a small building next to the Museum. Otherwise, there are many good restaurants on Main Street in Speedway, just two or three minutes away. And, there are a number of fast food places northwest of the track on Crawfordsville Road, five to seven minutes away.
