Starbuck's Drive-In Rebuilds with Community Support | Des Moines News

A devastating fire tore through Starbuck’s Drive-In in Nevada, Iowa, wiping out the beloved eatery and costing an estimated $175,000. Though firefighters contained the blaze quickly, the building was a total loss—compounded by the fact it was uninsured. City officials, led by Mayor Ryan Condon, are stepping in with demolition funds and rallying the community to rebuild. Owners Anna Sayre and Evelyn Yoder, who had renovation plans delayed by the previous owner’s passing, are partnering with the city to rise again. A 3D designer is donating their services, and a major fundraising push is underway—including selling sandwiches to RAGBRAI riders on July 22. Community leaders are now seeking a donation manager, as the city vows to help Starbuck’s reopen, powered by local love and support.
