Fun fact about Richmond...

Do you know where Richmond's first drive-in restaurant was located? 

2000-3-seabright-1

The 1950s are known for drive-in restaurant culture, the place to hang out on a Friday or Saturday night.

But the first drive-in restaurant opened in Richmond already in the 1930s. The Seabright, run by the Doherty family, was located on Sea Island, according to the Friends of the Richmond Archives.

Its location was a great place to watch airplanes coming and going from the new Vancouver Airport.

The Doherty family owned the Seabright Dairy, so it was natural they served homemade ice cream and milkshakes at their drive-in. They also served soft drinks, tea, coffee and sandwiches.
