Tired of fast food drive thru windows? The same old food in a hurry? Not what you'll find at the locally owed A&W. Fast car service during the lunch break brings me in along with Double Bacon Cheese Burger.
A real treat for the family is their great fried chicken. Might be the best in town but figure on 20-30 minutes on an order. Faster on Thursday when it's the special but worth the wait anytime.
A&W is know far and wide for their root beer so give it a try. Personal I don't care for the frosted mugs so the to go cup is a must. -

2/4/2012 1 Check-in Here
My buddy and I stopped here on our drive to Indy. We had to stop and get has and since restaurant wasn't far away he wanted to check it out.
Everyone knows that A&W is known for the root beer float so my buddy ordered that and loved it.
We didn't have the time to order fried chicken, but next time driving through will check it out. We just ordered a burger each and fries and it was fine. The workers were really nice and friendly and some of the nicest employees I have ran into at a fast food restaurant. -

For me, getting the fried chicken here is one of the best things about being in Greensburg. As sam w. said, this is a pretty unique aspect of this particular drive-in. I think the only fried chicken I've had that is better was at a wedding where it was homemade. The chicken is always moist and flavorful with lots of meat on the bones. The skin is light and crisp. It's not too salty and there is a little kick of pepper that makes my mouth water just thinking about it! I love how it is never too greasy. They make your chicken fresh, so call ahead if you don't want to hang about at the drive-in. It takes about 20 minutes.
They also have the regular A&W menu so you can get fried cheese curds or a coney dog or their delicious root beer floats. My one complaint is that their "biscuits" are actually dinner rolls.
I love how they don't have little electronic ordering boxes. You just flip on your lights and someone comes out to your car. The service isn't always super fast, but it is such a big place for just a few servers. I always marvel at how strong they are - they have to carry around those jangling change belts along with bags and trays full of drive-in goodness.
If you are ever in Greensburg, I highly recommend stopping in here. It is my one, absolutely must-do thing in this town. Luckily I have willing partners-in-crime in my fried chicken indulgence!Listed in: Tree City Fun

Best Bone-In Fried Chicken Ever! This is a dish unique to this particular A&W. The chicken is from a local farm, and instead of cutting the breasts in to halves, they serve fronts and backs. They also have the usual A&W fare -- Burgers, Fries and Root Beer Floats in a frosty mug! It's fun to pick up food from here and take it to the park.
Of all the Greensburg Trifecta (the three food joints you should always try to eat at when visiting, no matter how short your time -- Pizza King, Stories, A&W and/or sometimes Dairy Point), A&W is probably my favorite. The only downside is that they close down in the winter (hello, drive-in in Indiana), so time your trips to this small town well...Listed in: The Greensburg Trifecta

My Daddy did an amazing job of getting my brother and I cultured Hoosier. When we were small he'd want to get out of the city and into some local small town. Greensburg was one of those culture stops. He'd drive us out there and let us both order our own delicious floats at the Drive-In. We'd chug the frothy-golden-beers of root and smile all the while watching the girls skate out to the cars. If anything, go for the nostalgia. But the caramel-colored root beers are good too.
