Dave has a recommendation for Smitty's Better Burger in Hampton 6:30 Saturday, August 1st.  

This is an old time car hop location famous since the 1950's   Dave says the onion rings are to die for... :080:

Address:
1313 N. King Street
Hampton, VA 23669

Here is a link to their menu:

All are welcome, no reservations are necessary.  Put it on your calendar and stop on by.  Newbies and lovers of MINIs are WELCOME!!   FOOD, FRIENDS, & MINIs   :109:

I'm thinking we'll see you there  :023:

There's the carnival food place right beside Smitty's.  Funnel cakes for desert anyone???? :icon_razz:

YUM funnel cake...

I've eaten lunch there a few times great burgers and fries. :045:

We do Smitty's every so often for lunch at the shop. We were thinking about Doumar's soon and I think Smitty's will fill that need just fine. Though Doumar's does have great ice cream!

Just pick a date and time - we all like Dumars too   :023:

On 8/1/09 I have a retirement party to go to so we may be a little late but its just down the road from Smitty's.                                                                                                                   

I'm not a fast food / dine out kind of guy anymore. My internals prefer the things there used to now. But that won't stop me from marking my calendar and bringing the old Mini out for some BS time with fellow Miniacs.

Hey Steve, how about a call a couple days ahead so my grey cells can be refreshed???

Hoping to see you all and perhaps some of our new members at Smitties :026: I love the place ! It's really an "old time drive in". As Kathy has posted, in my opinion, the onion rings are to die for, just be sure you order the "batter fried rings" in order to get the real thing, otherwise you may get the generic frozen/processed type like they sell at Burger King  :118:

Put Sheri and I (Chuck) down, we may bring our (2) teenage daughters also.  Being we are on this side of the water and Sheri was born and raised in Norfolk, we are always up for Dumars.  We are always up for trying new old time car hop's places like Dumars & Smitty's,  there's not that many of them around any more.  :039:

Scott and Stephanie shall be there.  :044:

Just doing my bit to keep this thread noticed. I may have to try those onion rings.

AGREED!

While there is probably nothing even close to being healthy on the menu, the food is as good as it gets at a drive in. And YES, the onion rings are great!

Bump to the top  :104:

 :087: Not going to make it now. I have been invited to a wedding and reception I just can't pass on.

Perhaps the next burger joint (Sonic anyone?) meet.

Till then................

Come on people, sign up for the Smitties meet up !  If you have never been there, it could be a neat experience, if you're a regular, you already know the drill and what you like from the menu. It could be fun and if I'm not mistaken they have some picnic tables around the back, so we can all eat together v/s eating separately inside our cars. No fun or fellowship in that  :icon_exclaim:  Kath and I will be there on Saturday. Remember the motto, "post it, and we will come". If any of you have a favorite burger/icecream/hotdog/pizza, ect. place that you absolutely LOVE, post a note along with a suggested date and time, and see who show's up.....   Go for it !!!!!

Scott & I are in :)

Looks like I should have the night off.  See ya all there!

Are any of you bringing your dog(s)?  :icon_mrgreen: :106:

I am not sure, but we will all be disappointed if you don't bring The Nubster

 :044:  The little booger is getting smarter by the day.  Pretty soon he'll be driving me to Mini gatherings.  :103:

Ya know, I believe he just might.................

Deb, Franklin and I will be there!   :038: 

No mini of course, but you don't care...    :icon_eek:

These aren't the droids you're looking for....    :icon_mrgreen:

Those aren't the droids we're looking for...   

Hi Ben!  I look forward to seeing y'all!  :icon_mrgreen:
