Well these places are not real drive-ins. Mostly they're plate lunch places. It's pretty goofy if you ask me. There might be real drive-in here but I don't know of any. Too bad! |

Rainbow's is probably the most well-known Drive-in in the state so I know a thing or two about it. I have had burgers and fries at the place but mostly, they serve plate lunches. Nobody goes to Rainbow's for burgers and fries.. I'll get burgers because they're cheaper and smaller than a plate lunch and my stomach can't handle a big plate. They serve fried rice there too - that don't make Rainbow's a Chinese restaurant. They also serve ice cream but it ain't an Ice Cream Parlour. You people take things too literally. You have not proved a thing - except your pettiness. That's par for this course, I'm sorry to say. Deal. ![]() https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DZig8jvVEwQ |

Local food for local folks at a "drive-in"! > Nobody goes to Rainbow's for burgers and fries.

A reasonable decision. > They serve fried rice there too - that don't make Rainbow's a Chinese restaurant. So it's still a drive-in?

Literally it remains a drive-in, you even admitted as much. .. You have not proved a thing - except your pettiness. I and Yelp proved it IS a drive-in and that Hawaii has quite a few, just not of the Sonic flavor. > That's par for this course, I'm sorry to say. > > Deal. ![]() I always do. > https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DZig8jvVEwQ Well they all agree, it is a drive-in. One started in 1961! And the first to put a late lunch at a...wait for it...drive-in! |

Do you even know what a drive-in restaurant is? The drive-in restaurants in Hawaii are not drive-ins because there is no in-car service. If you want to eat in your car you have to go in the restaurant and get the food yourself and then waddle your fat ass back to your stinkin' roach filled car. People on the mainland might think this island is filled with drive-in restaurants but they're in for a shock because the drive-ins here are not like the drive-ins on the mainland. We just call them "drive-ins" to fool the tourists and people that might post to Usenet. |

But there was then... http://archives.starbulletin.com/199...ess/index.html And there is now: https://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/Locati...hu_Hawaii.html So is that just covered parking? I know you lost your drive in theaters: http://www.driveinmovie.com/HI.htm So did everything else get gobbled up too? |

I was raised in Kailua and I loved Andy's Drive In. You could see the red roof from the top of the Pali. I went there from small kid time. They didn't have any in-car service back then either. Alex Drive-in had carhop service.. That's was very cool but that closed down back in the 80's. Andy's closed down over 15 years ago. Now it's an O'Reilly's Auto Parts store. Hardly the generator of fond memories. Sorry to dash all your hopes and dreams of real drive-ins in Hawaii. You best go somewhere else to peddle your trollish wares. ![]() http://www.honolulumagazine.com/core...In/&mode=print |

Sorry you all lost those drive-ins. :-( Calling a standard plate lunch place a drive-in is a misuse of the term though. |
