Shady Glen Manchester CT Inducted into James Beard 2012 America’s Classics – Bernice Cheesburgers FTW!

Just had to share the cool news about a Retro Roadmap favorite- Shady Glen Dairy Store and Restaurant of Manchester CT is a James Beard Foundation America’s Classic Restaurant!

How could you forget the cheesiest cheeseburger you’ve ever seen on Retro Roadmap?

We visited Shady Glen last fall and it has since become one of our favorite stops between Massachusetts and Pennsylvania.

So happy for this family owned roadside classic getting world class recognition! I bet the lines will be long now – not good for us, but good for them!
