Worst food ever. I waited 15 mins for my food and my almost break was done. Chicken uncooked and lettuce was disgusting all red.... Never gonna eat again here Read more
Food and service are usually acceptable, but expect 25+ minute waits inside or at drive-thru during peak hours. Unacceptable for... a fast food restaurant. Absolutely avoid when busy if you value your time. Read more
Did you know On June 20, 1919, Roy W. Allen opened his first root beer stand in Lodi, California. Four years later, A&W began... when Allen and Frank Wright opens its drive-in restaurant in Sacramento, California, combining both of their initials for thename, and selling the root beer from Allen's stand. Curbside service was provided by tray boys and tray girls. In 1924, Allenpurchased Frank Wright's stake in the business. In 1925, Allen began franchising the root beer, while the franchisee added theother menu items and operated at their discretion. This may have arguably been the first successful food-franchising operation.Allen sold the company in 1950 and retired.[1] A 1950s A&W Burger Family display in Hillsboro, Oregon[10] In the expansionyears of the 1950s and 1960s, franchisees were signing 20- or 25-year contracts under the older model.[1] The chain expandedinto Canada in 1956, opening restaurants in Winnipeg and Montreal.
