Chuck a Burger Restaurant Review

I haven't written anything new in a while! My old boss called me back in to work this week to help shoot a dance school. It was my first week of work since Nathan was born and, I have to say, it was exhausting. But it was a lot of fun! I love watching the little girls in their dance costumes!

Anyway, I have helped photograph this dance school for years. The first time I went along, my boss took me to this drive in/restaurant called Chuck a Burger. (When I heard the name I was like... what? But yes, that is the name!) Every other time I have shot at that school, I went there. So yesterday, I decided to take my husband and son there.

It really is a cute little place; like going back in time. Inside, they have photos of Elvis and Sonny and Cher on the walls. There are a bunch of oldies playing in the background. A waitress comes up to take your order. They make everything to order, so it takes a little longer then most fast food places.

Their menu is classic style; burgers, fries, shakes, etc with a few wilder things (The spaghetti with chili comes to mind). Their burgers are pretty good, I like them a lot. Their milk shakes are great too! 

The Chuck a Burgers used to be the St. Louis place to get a burger. Sadly, as people are always in a hurry now, the drive-ins are in danger of going out of business. If you are ever in the St. Louis area, you should check them out. If people don't continue to go to places like this, they will all be gone. Or do people not want to stop and appreciate their history anymore while enjoying a great burger?
