Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis’ latest summer road trip pit stop? Home.

The “That ‘70s Show” stars stopped at Cedar Rapids barbecue restaurant Willie Ray’s Q Shack on Thursday.

“Look who stop by today the man himself,” the restaurant’s Facebook post read.

Kutcher grew up in eastern Iowa and he graduated from Clear Creek Amana High School in small town Tiffin about 25 minutes outside Cedar Rapids. Kutcher and Kunis are known to make frequent visits back to the state.

Kutcher and Kunis appear to be on a summer road trip. The A-listers were spotted at the North Dakota Cowboy Hall of Fame in small town Medora last week, according to Bismarck-based TV station KFYR.

The following day, Fargo, North Dakota-based news station Valley News Live reported that the parents of two posed for a selfie with baristas in the drive-thru of a Caribou Coffee location in Fergus Falls, Minnesota.

More: This Iowan donated thousands of meals when disaster struck. Now, his free food movement is national.

Willie Ray’s Q Shack is famous in its own right. The restaurant’s owner Willie Ray Fairley made national headlines during the Midwest derecho in August 2020 for his do-good actions. When Cedar Rapids was devastated by the natural disaster, he cooked racks of ribs and hot food for neighbors.

Now, his movement to provide free food has gone national as his crew travels to places such as Louisiana and Florida to help after disaster strikes.

Kutcher’s return home received a warm welcome from Iowans and the internet: the post has racked up nearly 16,000 likes and more than 1,600 shares so far.
