Lisa, I'll respond to this from a faint memory of Columbus. I do not recall a Blue Bird Cafe there, and although we had a Drive-In, as for its owners I'm not aware. Howeve, I seem to recall there may have been a Blue Bird Cafe in Hope, IN. It is quite possible that the Columbus Library may be able to help since they have old City Directories that could confirm your question. Regards, James Reynolds Hull, PhD 20224 N.
