1950s Drive-in Diners Make a Comeback

It's a blast from the past — the return of carhop service at drive-in diners. With so many dining rooms closed across the United States, restaurants are bringing back this classic slice of Americana. Many people have never experienced carhop service, since it went out of style back in the 1960s. But by having food brought to your car, you can stay safe and feel like you went to a restaurant without ever having to go inside. #InsideEdition

First time in 2020 I’m actually kind of excited lol I have a soft spot for old times so this is awesome

I don't know why, but the old lady made me smile when she said "Bring back old memories"

Old school is the best school! Love these car hops!

0:12 took me a few moments to work out HOW EXACTLY that tray and contents was hanging in mid-air. But I spotted how in the end :)

I think we’re going back in time this year

[annetteslife]

I hope this happens in Canada and in a way I wish we could stay retro

I remember the car hoop service form the movie “The Founder” which featured the CEO of Macdonalds. I recommend the movie for any aspiring entrepreneur.

“Carhop service is making a comeback”
Me as a carhop at Sonic: uh what

[Ddom._.]

I wish they will put security also because someone might steal the foods

[chrisa.]

See this is why I like inside edition over other mainstream media... They always try to put a positive attitude over everything and they aren't bias...

[jaysoh]

Imagine spilling soft drinks in your car

[CadyVirina]

I remember watching American Graffiti in film analysis. Fun fact, Harrison Ford had to wear a cowboy hat to hide his long hair for one of his other films.
