Little Bros. Burgers
Royal Oak, MI

Here is a tiny and I mean tiny burger joint in Royal Oak, MI called Little Bros. Burgers. It is just down the street from the old Royal Oak Theatre. Because the Grand Trunk Western runs diagonally behind it, this place is actually a triangle in shape so there are only about 8 stools inside. Can you imagine how small the building behind it is? So small I was unable to take an interior photo.

I had a rather tasty three burger, fries and drink combo for six bucks. Not bad. Since these pictures were taken, there has been an outdoor seating area added to the left of the building. If memory serves this was formally known as the "Cozy Coney". 09-08

For those of you that have passed through Benton Harbor, MI, this old marquee at Henry's Hamburgers will most likely be a familiar sight. According to the Chibbqking site, the Henry's Hamburgers chain started in Chicago and during the 1960s proudly showed off its 200 locations across the states.

According to the Henry's site, the Benton Harbor Henry's opened in April 1959 and immediately established a reputation for service and value. The Henry's chain went defunct in the 1970s while this Benton Harbor location lives on, even adding in drive-thru service in 1988. 07-09
