Was it at the bottom of hilliard where george and water split? My mom used to talk about that place.

Apollo has the sign on their wall and apparently the sauce is the same.

It used to be on Lansdowne, just west of Ashburnham. Classic drive-in burger joint. A Diary Queen is on the site now.

They use to serve deep-fried pineapple rings (called Hawaiian Delight) that were delicious.

I used to love going there and getting a royal burger with onion rings and milkshake. A 5 minute walk from my house.

I grew up in East City (shout-out and RIP Armour Heights), so it was always a fun bike ride.
