Visited Springfield in 2021, traveling US 66 from Chicago to St Louis.
Stopped a couple of times at the Cozy Dog Drive-In.  I did not try a Cozy
Dog, but did have their cheese burger (very good!) and their onion rings,
also good.

If you get there too late in the day, they will likely be out of the rings,
though!

South of Springfield, in Litchfield, is a place called the Ariston Cafe.
IIRC, it has been there since before Route 66 was there.  Food was
excellent there also.  Not "fast food" as the Cozy Dog, it is a sit-down
place where a waitress takes your order and brings out your meal.
