I have memories of the food counter being there but I don't remember eating
there. We had one in the only real shopping center in our town when I was a
kid and it was pretty much the only place to hang out when we got to the
driving age and had a car to get there.

As for the shopping center, I can remember just driving around and around
the parking lot with a car full of people to see who we could find.
Everyone was there of course. lol
