A&W Drive-Ins
The fast-food restaurant chain A&W Restaurants, Inc. has become synonymous with root beer floats and draft root beer. Its “frosty mugs” were the most popular. It was founded in 1919, which means it is one of the oldest chains (noted for having introduced drive-thru service) in the country. It is set to carry on that legacy once it opens more locations than it ever closed down initially. It is nice to have A&W back.

Carrols Restaurants
It might be hard to believe, but fast food existed before Burger King and McDonald’s. The OG of burger dining, Carrols had the Club Burger. You could buy special Looney Tunes glasses as well as hamburgers which were once 15 cents (in the ‘60s, but still!) When Burger Kings openend up around Carrols turf, the founder Herb Slotnick ended up giving in to the tough competition and transformed Carrols locations into Burger Kings too. What a whopper shame!
