Midway Drive-In

Midway's Story

Owners: Bill Ghiz and Cory Hutchinson

Midway Drive-In is an experience. Established in 1939, Midway Drive-In has been a staple on the west side of Huntington, WV. Although it has passed through a few hands, Midway has found passionate, enthusiastic owners, determined to maintain this classic take on Americana Cuisine.

Midway's co-owner, Bill Ghiz, has loved the legendary hot dogs since he was a kid. He was introduced to the landmark drive-in by his dad, the late Joe Ghiz. Bill’s relationship with Midway continued as he worked his way through college at Marshall University by working as a curb boy at Midway. The drive-in also played host to his first meeting with Samantha, whom he later married.

When the opportunity came to buy Midway & reopen its doors in 2008, childhood friends, Bill & Cory Hutchinson couldn't pass up owning a piece of history in the west end of Huntington.

Cory has a passion for cooking, serving, and entertaining. The opportunity to buy Midway was a dream-come-true. With quality and authenticity of top importance, Cory used his relationship with the local food-industry to ensure they had the best quality products.

The Midway Drive-In experience is more than just delicious hot dogs, crispy fries, amazing cheeseburgers, & decadent homemade milkshakes. Midway is a slice of history, a dream, a passion, and a family. Cory & Bill hope you love Midway as much as they do!
