Tesla Diner, Drive-in, Supercharging Station Opening: Photos
Tesla CEO Elon Musk has already tried the food. Tesla has been working on a diner-supercharger-drive-in concept in Los Angeles for years — the building broke ground in 2023 — and it looks like the project has finally entered soft-opening mode. CEO Elon Musk (and some other Tesla enthusiasts) have already tried the food. Musk called it "one of the coolest spots in L.A." I just had dinner at the retro-futuristic @Tesla diner and Supercharger. Team did great work making it one of the coolest spots in LA! — Elon Musk (@elonmusk) July 14, 2025 The supercharger station triples as a 1950s-styled diner and drive-in movie theater, complete with burgers and shakes, but modernized with two 45-foot LED movie screens. InsideEVs reports that there are about 75 V4 Supercharger stalls, and a security guard told the outlet it is expected to be open in a few weeks. First look at Tesla's completed Hollywood diner and Supercharger! It looks sick! Really dope futuristic/retro vibe. Tesla has completely taken down the fencing surrounding the whole place, so these photos were able to be taken from the public sidewalk/street. The diner features… — Sawyer Merritt (@SawyerMerritt) July 9, 2025 The station, located at 7001 West Santa Monica Boulevard in Los Angeles, will be open 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

Cape Breton Drive-In celebrates 50th anniversary
A throwback to a different era, the Cape Breton Drive-In hasn't changed much since the day it showed its first movie on the big outdoor screen. 'It was July 10, 1975 when we opened,' said Lindsay McKinnon, the drive-in's new managing owner. The drive-in theatre – located along Grand Lake Road in Sydney, N.S. – recently marked its 50th anniversary. 'I think it's a testament to this community's love for drive-in theatres and the nostalgia that comes with that,' McKinnon said of the milestone. Over the years, the drive-in has managed to keep a lot of its classic charm, offering a different experience from streaming a movie at home or seeing one in a standard theatre. 'You don't have to worry about the other audience members on their cell phones or talking or kicking your seat, and if you're the kind of person who's doing those things you don't have to worry about anyone complaining,' said McKinnon with a laugh.

(CTV Atlantic / Ryan MacDonald) The past 50 years have included some challenges, including the COVID-19 pandemic and a few prolonged closures in the years leading up to it. However, MacKinnon says, in this day and age of video streaming, there appears to be a rejuvenated interest in the drive-in experience. 'I think there are somewhere in the vicinity of 50 drive-in theatres still in Canada, there are only two here in Nova Scotia,' McKinnon said. As for what's next at the Cape Breton Drive-in, McKinnon says plans include expanding their canteen menu. She also hopes to offer food delivery to vehicles in the not too distant future. McKinnon adds the cost for a snack and admission for a carload will remain a bit of a throwback, too. 'I mean, I'm not going to say we have 1975 pricing, but we definitely don't have 2025 pricing,' she said. For more Nova Scotia news, visit our dedicated provincial page

Burgers, nostalgia and tradition: Keller's Drive-In serves up a slice of Dallas history
Celebrating burgers and tradition at Keller's Drive-In in Dallas Celebrating burgers and tradition at Keller's Drive-In in Dallas Celebrating burgers and tradition at Keller's Drive-In in Dallas On National Hamburger Day, there's no better place to celebrate than Keller's Drive-In, a Dallas institution that's been flipping patties and serving customers straight to their cars for decades. Some even call it the longest-running drive-in in North Texas — and its burgers speak for themselves. A bite of burger history CBS News Texas If you've never been to Keller's, you're missing out on more than just a meal. You're stepping into a slice of Dallas history. Owner Jack Keller has been part of the family business since he was just six years old. "The whole world has changed," Keller said. "The inside of Keller's hasn't changed, OK?" In a world of gourmet burger joints and trendy toppings, Keller's keeps it simple — and affordable. A double meat cheeseburger, fries, and a drink still come in under $10. And yes, you can still get a cold beer for $2.75, tax included. Behind the grill I tried my hand at working the grill, but let's just say I'll leave the cooking to the pros. "This spatula is balanced just right," Keller told me, comparing it to a samurai sword. My technique? Not quite up to par. "Not a professional, clearly," he joked. But what I lacked in cooking skills, I made up for in appetite. "Yeah, I could eat 10 or 12 of these," I said after my first bite — and I meant it. More than a meal For Keller, the drive-in is about more than burgers. It's about community and accessibility. "It's weirdly enough connected to freedom," he said. "Where anybody can come and not worry about how much they spend here and really enjoy the experience." So if you're looking for a place to celebrate National Hamburger Day — or just want a taste of nostalgia — Keller's Drive-In is ready to serve you, carhop style.
