Tee Pee Restaurant, Historic drive-in restaurant in Indianapolis, United States.
The restaurant featured a central teepee-shaped section with stucco exterior, flanking wings, and a cantilevered canopy extending around the building perimeter.
Albert Ray McComb established the restaurant in 1932, initially operating seasonally before expanding to year-round service and changing its name to Tee Pee Cone Shop in 1936.
The establishment incorporated Native American architectural elements and menu themes, offering signature items like the Big Chief hamburger and fresh-baked pies.
The restaurant served breakfast, lunch, and dinner throughout the week, with curbside service allowing customers to enjoy meals directly from their vehicles.
The restaurant purchased a prize-winning steer at the 1945 Indiana State Fair as a promotional event, generating substantial attention from local media.
