Does anyone have access to directories from 1979-81 or so?

There was major construction next door to open a Popeye's chicken. I don't hold a lot of hope for something better than that. Powers-that-be in the retail and food service worlds do not view Northlake/Briarlake/Oak Grove as the upscale demographic that we, the residents, think it is. :-(Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-34146664926299213932016-02-17T10:03:43.456-05:002016-02-17T10:03:43.456-05:00My wife would be excited about a drive-through Sta...My wife would be excited about a drive-through Starbucks (makes it easier to get coffee without having to bring the kids inside) - have to drive to Loehman's Plaza/Brighten Park for that now. Current Northlake Starbucks is in a weird location.

Therefore it holds odors, bacteria, mold etc. I hate going into an old Wendy's with carpet. Just looks dirty!AJnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-9670233199963192372016-02-16T18:07:22.785-05:002016-02-16T18:07:22.785-05:00No tears from me.

I was not impressed the few times I went there. I just don't think any Wendy's is that good any more. Years ago I thought Wendy's had the best burgers around but now I think they are tasteless. The only fast food place I go to is Chickfila. Much rather go to one of the many fast casual chains that are around.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-90951867801801357862016-02-16T13:12:06.805-05:002016-02-16T13:12:06.805-05:00What baffles me is how these places that have been...What baffles me is how these places that have been open for 10, 20, even 30 years, suddenly are not doing good business and up and close.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-2067357183420550462016-02-16T10:53:22.825-05:002016-02-16T10:53:22.825-05:00I’m not sure if the quality of food/service change...I’m not sure if the quality of food/service changed or if my taste have matured, but I’ve found both lacking during my more recent visits to Wendy’s. I suppose if they plan to relocate that location something closer to I-285 would make sense maybe near Northlake Parkway and the new development happening in that area.

It's a really classic piece of late 70s fast food architecture, but I doubt that will save it.<br /><br />~mindspringyahooAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
