Hot Springs, AR

3220 Central Avenue

There was a Burger Chef in Hot Springs, Arkansas on Central Avenue, it now houses a Wendy's, but many many moons ago it was indeed where we went every Friday night for our funmeal.  Not sure if the address was the same back then.. but the Wendy's address is  3220 Central Avenue.

Pete Burtness opened the Hot Springs Burger Chef in October of 1961.  He and his store are featured in the September 1977 issue of Scene after finishing an extensive remodeling.  Below are some pictures clipped from that article, you can read the full text of the article here.
