Some things never change–including people occupying tables without ordering any food or drinks!

John’s Drive In

Sunday, January 5th, 2020

John’s Drive In was located at 3336 Indianola, where Burger King is today. John’s was not listed in the 1950 city directory, but was listed in the 1953 and 1955 directories. By 1956 it had become Beverlee Drive In.

Almost as noteworthy is the telephone booth in front of the restaurant–another relic of the past.
