I've only eaten in them a few times - there aren't any real close to where I work or live, but whenever I drive by one it seems like they're always busy.

I remember once (mid-'80s?) going to a bar/restaurant that had similar seats and tables made from barrels - probably not with the leather(ette) upholstery though. It was probably in Upstate NY - the upper Hudson Valley or maybe Adirondack ski country.

It's still around here. Every once in a while there's an estate auction...

Yeah, it's probably still in a lot of places in NC too: barbecue joints, etc. There's a chain of "Southern-themed" restaurant/gift shops in the Southeast called "Cracker Barrel" that probably has some of that stuff.

Cracker Barrels are coast-to-coast now and now I want some gravy.

Yeah, the lid covers always seemed a little troubling to me too. The pile of that carpet is so thick it looks like you'd practically need snowshoes to walk in there.
