We've also expanded into new, more convenient spaces. The drive-ins of the '60s have been replaced by contemporary free-standing restaurants with drive-thru service.

As our customers' needs for convenience and faster service grew, our restaurants changed to meet those needs. While our commitment to having the best-tasting food hasn't changed, our restaurants are dramatically different than they were in the drive-in days. And our Burger Family burgers are still made with fresh, quality ingredients. Our onion rings are made fresh from whole onions every day. We still serve A&W Root Beer® in frosted mugs. At the heart of that growth is the fact that, while so much of our world has changed, the simple things that made A&W so popular in its early days are the same today. Since then, A&W has continued to grow, expanding into over 1,000 locations from Vancouver Island to Newfoundland. It's an enduring friendship that is the source of A&W's continued success across Canada. Whether they were kids in the back seat of the family sedan, or just hanging out with their best friends on a Friday night checking out the hot cars, Canadian baby boomers grew up with A&W. In fact, millions of Canadians today still carry vivid memories of special moments in their lives that took place at their local A&W drive-in. Because we were there first, our drive-ins served as "the place to be" in town. In many communities, A&W was the first nationally branded restaurant in town. Canada's original-and fastest growing-burger chain.
