Description

Specialties

Check out our Hotdog with red sauce, you won’t regret it.

We also have a very tasty cheeseburger deluxe with olives, or our fish & chips.

History

Established in 1970.

In 1970 an additional restaurant was built in Flushing, Michigan. This restaurant had a more expanded menu and was eventually open year round. The Clio road store had been a seasonal 7 mo. operation. Flushing was managed by some family members in the beginning and then eventually sold to son Rob. The restaurant has now gone independent as the Flushing A and is owned by son Scott. Still serving the same delicious red sauce hotdogs and many other favorites. Where is Larry now? Still active showing up as maintenance man and every week cleaning those root beer lines to keep that clean fresh taste.

Its an A & W minus the W… Food is good and service is excellent. If you are looking for lamb chops or oysters on the half shell keep moving. Hot dogs, hamburgers, onion rings and all things fried in oil are here. All to be washed down with a mug of root beer. So if you crave a hot dog onion rings and a root beer head to Flushing. You can always walk it off at the park next to the reasteraunt

Found this gem while heading up north. We were driving up 75 and had a hankering for a good Flint coney dog and we already passed Flint. I decided to use my handy Unilocal tool and we strayed off the hwy a few miles (a bit further than anticipated) to hunt down a good hot dog. We finally arrived at the location and there was a oldie car show going on and it was super busy. It was a cool looking old style place like you see with the car hops. They have a diner type restaurant that you can eat at and also a walk up ‘to go’ order spot for carryouts… which is awesome and very convenient! We ordered two coneys and a small fry and got our food nice and quick. I devoured my hot dog because it was super awesome and more than hit the spot! The fries were also very good, nice & crispy and tasted really fresh! I would definitely go out of my way to get to this place again! A+++

This place is great! Patty melt is awesome. Great place to go with friends. Price might be just slightly high, but I’d go again.

This place rocks for flint style coneys! I prefer the plain hot dog, with red sauce,
I have to clear these other reviews up… its not ketchup cooked with onions, and its not marinara sauce either, those reviewers obviously don’t know their sauces. Also The red sauce has not changed since it was an A&W so how they can think it was better as an A&W I have no idea, their food is exactly the same as before! Look you either like a sauce or you don’t, but that does not make it a bad sauce, to each their own.
I get free refills every time I go (which started after they became Flushing A and not A&W), and you also get a free ½ gallon for ordering 6 hot dogs to go. When I lived out of state, this was one of the first places I would go after coming back.
Their chili is their flint style coney sauce, on their chili cheese fries, so its meat and not western chili.
I have never gotten bad service here, and they are always very friendly.

With all the coney places in the area, I am surprised to see this place get the high reviews that it does. We ordered a large order of coneys, fries, and onion rings from the A recently. The fried and rings were standard from a bag and came out greasy and limp (and this was before they even got home). The flint style coney was good but not the greatest. They offer a special red sauce version that everyone said was good but it definitely tasted like marinara on a hot dog. It wasn’t special beyond its ability to make me not want to eat it.
All and all, I think this place was better when it was an A&W but that isn’t saying much.

Five stars? Other reviewers must have been rating for sentimental reasons. I would never go back to this restaurant – there is just no reason to. Flushing has lots of good restaurants where you will get better service and better food.
I had the hot dog with «famous red sauce» which tastes like ketchup cooked with onions. I had to scrape it off my hot dogs to be able to eat them. My dining companion had the coneys and while the chili tasted pretty good, it was really more like loose burger on top of the hot dog than chili. The frosted mugs that others mentioned? Didn’t come with our root beer, which wan’t even cold. No refills were offered either, even though the mug cost close to $ 2. All in all it was an experience I don’t need to repeat.
If you’re in Flushing, go to Kathy’s or Sorrento’s or even Homeboy BBQ or any of a number of places. Other than the quaintness of Flushing A being an old-​fashioned drive in, there’s just no reason to eat here.

Definitely a top 5 burger, That is high praise from me, as I am a burger aficionado.
Good service and atmosphere when eating in. Love the old school parki lot service. Take out gets done quite fast.
Run good specials throughout the week and the Car Cruises are a fun time to attend.

A classic drive-​in, this place still serves some very good food. They’ve changed the name to the «Flushing A» and done a little remodeling lately, but it’s still a fun restaurant with some nice memorabilia. I believe they are still one of the few places where you can get a hotdog with the special red sauce – it’s a meatless sauce, tomato based, but different than ketchup. This is my mother’s favorite, and it goes especially well with a nice frosty mug of root beer!

Love this place. Amazing hotdogs with homemade redsauce. This is not your average corporate owned franchise.
