The Drift on Inn was a roadhouse established in 1930 on Aurora Avenue North in what was then unincorporated King County, now the City of Shoreline. The nightclub reportedly once played host to Frank Sinatra, Harry Truman, and Bob Hope, and the adjoining Club Hollywood Casino was open 24 hours a day.

In this image two regulars chat over a drink inside the club. An electrical fire permanently closed the club on April 11, 2015.
