Kathy Beaman delivers a meal at the Church Street Drive-In on Thursday, June 5, 2014, in Greensboro, N.C. Church Street Drive-In is a hamburger place. Or really, the place of the famous decked out sandwich they call the What-a-Burger. But it's more than that. It's been a fry-and-burger joint since 1959. It's been at its current spot, a box of a building off North Church, since 1965. It closed last year for five months because a Jeep Cherokee slammed into its wall. But it's back open, this small spot. It's good. But it's better when you talk to the family members who've run it. Four generations of the same family -- the Laws and the Truitts

Kathy Beaman delivers a meal at the Church Street Drive-In on Thursday, June 5, 2014, in Greensboro, N.C. Church Street Drive-In is a hamburger place. Or really, the place of the famous decked out sandwich they call the What-a-Burger. But it's more than that. It's been a fry-and-burger joint since 1959. It's been at its current spot, a box of a building off North Church, since 1965. It closed last year for five months because a Jeep Cherokee slammed into its wall. But it's back open, this small spot. It's good. But it's better when you talk to the family members who've run it. Four generations of the same family -- the Laws and the Truitts
