Indiana: Schoop's Hamburgers,
And what is with WAWA, in PA, never heard of them.
They're a 24/7/365 operation. It used to be that when the contractor turned over the door keys for a new store, they threw them away!
Most of you probably already know about the FEMA Waffle House disaster level assessment, it has been discussed here multiple times.
Also, if you come in after 1AM without a firearm, they loan you one.
just kidding
Waffle House, Jersey Mike’s, and Whataburger are pretty well known and probably in more than one state already. I wonder how well-known the others are.
I’ve lived in TN for 34 years. I’ve never heard of Pal’s Sudden Service.
Oklahoma, Braum's, OK. Reasonably consistent
Texas, Whataburger, still OK, I'll drive out of my way for a vanilla malt there.
Arkansas, Slim Chickens, Good enough
Georgia, Waffle House?, must be some kind of decent food desert.
Cook Out has a long line of cars in the drive through at all hours of the day.
The Popeye’s next door has 1-2 cars in their drive through about 4-5 days a year. I don’t see how they stay in business.
I wouldn’t have thought of Awful House as anything but a national chain with locations in almost half the states. Lots of regional barbecue joints they could have picked in Texas. And for California, they went with an international chain instead of a regional chain like In-n-Out. And Jersey Mike’s? What IS their definition of Regional?
Braum’s works, as does Whataburger, although maybe it should be under Illinois with Williams Chicken giving it a run in Texas. Or any of several regional Taco chains. Torchy’s would qualify; Fuzzy’s may have too big of a footprint to be Regional, but not by that site’s definition.
If I opened the bag and saw that, I’d toss it right into the trash
BBQ Chicken (BBQ doesn't stand for "barbecue") is a chain of Korean fast-food restaurants that specialize in spicy fried chicken. I believe the chain in headquartered in Korea, but it is rapidly expanding in Southern California.
When it comes to burgers, I like Tommy’s in Southern California, which is famous for its chile cheeseburgers. In Northern California, I like the burgers at Nation’s Giant, a small chain.
Choice of Taco Time in Washington is a joke. By far and large the most popular local Fast Food is Dicks. A few years ago Dicks announced they were expanding, and cities were begging for Dicks to choose their city.
In New Hampshire, Beach Plum beats Moes IMHO.
You’re going to get a double pastrami burger at Crown Burger in Salt Lake City.
Went to the next article there and it was the best fried chicken in each state. For Ohio they have: Ohio: Boomtown Biscuits & Whiskey - Cincinnati. Only the restaurant is across the river in Kentucky. I don’t trust them.
We had Freddy’s Steakburgers last night in Ohio. One of the Chaps Put Beef locations is 1/2 mile from home in Maryland. Good choice.
Arctic Roadrunner in Alaska can hardly be called a regional chain. It has one restaurant in Anchorage.
Read later.
Moved out of LA so I can no longer get Tommy’s and Whataburger. I live in the boonies but there is an In-N-Out 8 miles from me so life is good.
No El Pollo Loco?
Mighty Taco in WNY.
