B-K Rootbeer is an independent chain of drive-in fast-food restaurants, distinguished by their draft root beer and root beer floats. A midwestern chain, B-K restaurants are located in Indiana, Michigan, and Ohio. B-K stands for "Bergerson & Kenefick" [1].
At one time, there were 238 B-K drive-ins around Indiana and surrounding states. It was founded by Melvin and Mary Bergerson in the mid 1940s in Michigan City, Indiana.[2][3]
B-K Rootbeer stands opened in the 1950s and served hamburgers, milk shakes, ice cream cones, hot dogs and other foods.
