About A&W prices
Roy Allen opened a root beer stand in Lodi, California in 1919 and later went into business with Frank Wright, and their initials became the name. It was one of the first restaurant franchises in America. Today the US restaurants are owned by their franchisees, which is why prices and hours change so much from one A&W to the next. The figures here are typical prices before tax.
