  Where the good times roll and history comes to life

  in the mid-1950s california became the state with the highest rate of car ownership in the nation. weiss and dobbs began expanding the san francisco car service concept restaurant into a successful chain. by 1954 the mels franchise was pulling in about $4 million annually. weiss estimated they were cooking up 15-20,000 hamburgers a day. mels became a fixture of contemporary life, with bright neon lighting, carhops, and a pre-fast food menu. in the 1950s and 60s you could find one or more mels drive-ins throughout northern california, locations stretched from san francisco to oakland, berkeley, sacramento, san jose, walnut creek and salinas
