We have an old fashioned Root Beer Stand in my home town; complete with car hops and hanging trays. The food is fabulous and the atmosphere always takes you back to the sixties. My fist job was as a car hop on the other end of town at the West End Root Beer Stand. They have been closed for years. Now we only have one on the east side of town, Woody’s.
As teenagers we would cruise State Street from one root beer stand to the other. That was a regular Friday night event for me and my girlfriends. Actually I met my husband on one such night and we have been married for nearly 42 years now.
My kids always want to eat at Woody’s when they come back to visit. We made many wonderful family memories at that old drive in restraunt. They still have the best chili foot longs in town, in fact probably the only place that still sells them. The root beer floats are out of this world and the onions rings are the greatest.
