One of many A&W locations around the Detroit area but not as unique as this survivor on Eureka Road in Southgate. Opening in the late 1960's to the chain's once "pagoda" or volcano-style roof and another quasi-mansard style many fast food chains adapted by this time still retains the vintage charm with drive-up kiosks and awning for car service. This location does not feature a dining room but has an inviting, sidewalk approachable patio area.

In 2015, this building incured some fire damage on the far right end, hence the slight mismatch in roofline, yet still troops on.

A rare drive-up A&W Restaurant in Greenville, Rhode Island has been here for since 1958 and has had some remodeling over the years. This small picnic area is this restaurant's dining area.
Free-standing or non-multibrand A&W locations are extremely scarce but always a real treat for fresh root beer made on site.
Sometime after 2012, the building was repainted orange.
