Root Bear diversifies
By Paul Delean, THE GAZETTE May 26, 2011
MONTREAL - Turns out an old (Root) bear can learn new tricks.
A&W, the hamburger chain that’s been a Canadian fixture since 1956, will open one of its new “urban concept” restaurants Wednesday in Montreal, featuring innovative technology, a modified menu and singles-friendly seating.
A&W has been one of Canada's 50 Best Managed Companies since 2002.
The Burger Family® and their iconic logos have represented great-tasting burgers for generations.
The first A&W drive-in restaurant in Canada opened on Portage Avenue in Winnipeg in 1956.
A&W's new restaurant design, unique both inside and out.
We serve our famous A&W Root Beer® in frosted mugs so it's always the perfect temperature.
At over 700 restaurants and counting, A&W is Canada's second-largest hamburger chain.
The Sirloin Uncle Burger™, the latest addition to The Burger Family®, was introduced in 2008.
