The Galley Boy made with a veggie burger instead of beef. It keeps both Swen sauces, which are really the soul of the original, so vegetarians get most of the experience. Better than the name suggests.

About Swensons
Wesley “Pop” Swenson started selling hamburgers out of a station wagon at Akron’s Buchtel High School in 1933, and opened a proper drive-in on South Hawkins Avenue the following year. He sold it in 1949 to Robert Phillips, who began a slow expansion that has only recently reached Columbus, Cincinnati and Indiana.
Drive-ins across northeast and central Ohio, from Akron and Cleveland to Columbus and Cincinnati, plus the Indianapolis area.
