The Colby Drive-In sat on the west side of the town and is now partially covered by a large building that sits on the south side of the property. It was opened by April 1953 when it was operated by Don Phillips.

Today, a football field has been etched into where the drive-in once stood. However, you can still see the general outline and arguably old remnants of the entrance which appears to be connected to W. 5th Street on the north side of the property.
