According to their wonderfully nostalgic Daly Restaurant website, there is only one Daly Drive-In (#6) still operating today. Having opened in 1959, it is located at 31500 Plymouth Avenue, Livonia. When WKNR’s Gary Stevens cut this Daly Burger ad in 1964, there were 11 Daly Restaurants in operation. By 1974, there was 17 Daly Drive-Ins altogether having peppered the Detroit map at it’s peak. Daly #1 and #2 were the last to close in 2003.
