Story

In 1919, our founder Roy Allen set up a roadside drink stand in Lodi, California to introduce a new beverage called "root beer" at a parade honoring returning World War I veterans. With his creation an instant success, Allen and partner Frank Wright named the beverage we know today as A&W® Root Beer. Allen and Wright started franchising roadside stands, making A&W Restaurants the oldest franchise restaurant chain in the country.

In 1931, A&W was born in Fond du lac at Merrill and Main St. It was soon traded during the depression for food to a Grocery store owner and moved to Fond du lac Ave. In 1953, It moved to its current location. The Fond du Lac A&W is one of A&W's original Drive-In restaurants.
We are proud to stick to our roots and honor the past, while still growing with the changing times. We are committed to making it right, every time. Laughter, simple pleasures, and celebrations are all vital to A&W.

Ask around, everyone has an A&W memory: first dates, baby mugs of Root Beer, high school sweethearts, and that perfect burger.

Root beer. Orange dream ice cream cone. If there is a third component of the good life, it doesn't matter because the first two things on the list have it covered.

What can I say about Jim and his team? They are friendly, organized, accurate and consistent. They are very generous contributors to local charities and causes. Heck, we love 'em so much we bought Christmas trees here for the past 2 years! Be sure to visit often!

There's nothing like a drive in! Food is always good. And root beer is awesome. Nothing like A&W root beer, made fresh every day!
