I really enjoy surfing your site!  Thanks for your references to my site, "Burger Chef Memories"!

I visited the restaurant in Cleaveland TN, "The Chef" the weekend of July 8-9, 2006.  I've posted some pictures.  It was almost unreal to walk in the door and see it in such original shape!!  The inside was remodeled, but the glass was hardly changed.  The ceiling was original and counter.  The pictures tell the story...

This store is best known for being the last Burger Chef to close.  They finally shut their doors in 1996.  There are some excellent pictures on Burger Chef Memories of this site take shortly before it closed.

Jackson, TN

398 Airways Boulevard

I worked there for three days and loved it. When they made me polish the ceiling and I broke the lights they let me go for some reason.  It was the place to meet and my mother hated it. The food was good and cheap.  I could get a cheesburger, fries and a coke for 57 cents. It played a big part in my teenage years. I fought, raced and lost my cherry from that parking lot. Even saw a man shot there. 1963-1971

A newspaper ad from the Jackson Sun in June of 1969 gave the address as 398 Airways

Kingsport, TN

802 Lynn Garden Drive

There's a nifty picture of this site circa 1955 on rootsweb, you can view it here.  Also, the Kingsport BC was mentioned in a local newspaper in January of 2006.  You'll find more on that here.

The Burger Chef in Kingsport, TN was still operating in 1990 I believe.

The actual address is 802 Lynn Garden Drive.  I think it closed in the early 1990s.  It might have become a Dairy Queen.
