Dairy Queen restaurants across Texas are celebrating their 75th anniversary, including the location at 1835 W. Louisiana St., McKinney. In commemoration of the milestone, Dairy Queen is asking its customers to share their favorite DQ memories at https://dqtexas.com/anniversary.
“DQ restaurants in Texas have been part of the fabric of the Lone Star State’s communities for 75 amazing years,” Lou Romanus, CEO of the Texas Dairy Queen Operator’s Council, said in a news release. “Almost everyone I meet tells me about a particular memory they experienced at their favorite DQ restaurant in Texas. The anniversary of the DQ brand in Texas is a wonderful opportunity to share these stories with fans across Texas.”
Dairy Queen has Texas-specific menu items that cannot be ordered anywhere else in the country. The Chick’n Fried Steak sandwich, Hungr-Buster and BeltBuster burgers and Texas T-Brand Tacos are all fan favorites, according to the news release. 972-542-0480. https://dqtexas.com

Are they all owned by Pakistanis in Texas also? Our local DQ owner never washes his hands, does not wear plastic gloves, and handles bananas with his bare hands. I’m shocked that it is still in business as I hardly ever see a car in their parking lot.
find another DQ
well, yer on Illinois
Rusty, I seem to remember you having a very Texas-style DQ memory...
Wow that’s nice you are blessed to still have them.
Yep, the same state where they found fecal matter in McDonald’s ice machine where they make their ice cream. But that is what life is like behind the curtain.
I haven’t found one without a Pakistani. They are as bad as 7-11’s.
20 years ago, you could get pintos with breakfast. They had everything. Kemp, TX. They opened at 5 am. Miss those days.
The DQ Dilly Bar.
Reminded me of a couple “golden moments” in my youth. Thanks.
You should probably get out more. You know, make a little progress.
yessir they still do in farmersville and quinlan
IMO, DQ gave one kiddo E.coli from the steak finger meal and our other kiddo tripped on the spongy floor tiles and had to have stitches.
split time in socal bet In-N-Out and DQ. DQ usually after the matinee. great memories.
I loved fosters freeze in so cal
yer opinion or finnicky kids
DQ’s chicken fried steak used to be so awesome. Real steak battered and deep fried. Now, all they have is some sort of pressed meat, steak fingers.
oh my yes it used to be wonderful
| "Dairy Queen celebrates 75 years in Texas, asks customers to share favorite DQ memories" Stopping at the DQ in Anson while on our way to OKC to visit family members. It's since been closed down. Not sure why...it was a very popular place to hang out there in that small town. |
