CRIDER’S
Most popular hang-out in Greenfield for years. Everyone had to cruise this place at least once every night and sometimes during the day a couple of times.
In 1950, Kenneth Crider moved to Greenfield after serving a stint in the US Navy, attending Butler University. He would build the iconic Crider’s Drive-in Restaurant on West Main Street near the newly proposed Weston Village housing addition. Crider’s would unofficially open in May 1950 with an official grand opening later that summer. The new Weston Village addition homes would be completed by September 1951, and Crider’s would be up and running smoothly just in time for the new families to arrive.
We have been told that the Crider’s below is the one that was started in New Castle. I don’t know why I didn’t catch this before, because I’ve been there several times during the 1960’s.

The last photo with the little cupola on top is not the Greenfield Crider’s. That is a photo of the Crider’s in New Castle.
