Knott's Berry Farm - Chicken Dinner Menu Comparison

Today on Knott’s Monday let’s look at the way prices used rise, slowly…. It seems like prices now a days are going up faster than even the computers can keep track of them. So let’s venture into a simpler time, when prices increase’s were small and took years to take affect.

We’ll be looking at Knott’s Berry Farm’s Chicken Dinner Restaurant Menu’s from 1955 to 1970. This is the cover of the 1955 Edition.





The following are the price pages from 1955, 1959, 1967 and 1970 (I think it’s 1970 or close). I have also scanned the entire menu for each of the four periods; the menu itself is a Souvenir type booklet of the park.

I wonder what $3 gets you there today. The Chicken Dinner is of course still open and I’m sure they do a fine business as well. Looks Yummy. (Link)
