It's getting scary bad with no end in sight!
The O’Charley’s company used to own other chains but got rid of them years ago to refocus. Surprised to hear they could be in trouble.
Their headquarters is in south Nashville, TN.
Of the three names mentioned, two of them have poisoned me. I hope they both go "belly up".
And gas is below $4 for now... Wait until it finally hits $5 and $6 just like Obama wants and see what happens to those places that only survive from expendable income. He is clueless.
Three Denny’s went down in my area about 6 months ago. Boarded up ,they look horrible and are fast becoming blights on the neighborhoods.
An Italian resto that was here when I moved here more than 30 years ago closed shop about two months ago , too. Thank you Øbama. You’re doing a swell job.
EBT Only Night, Free Beer with 100 dollar purchase!
The problem is, there are too many people having trouble paying for the pizzas and Big Macs they ate two years ago.
Whoooo! At least Outback (the ORIGINAL Support Our Troops resturant, caterred steak dinners to the troop in Afghanistan) ain’t on the list and ought to survive.
Denny’s Chapter 11 Grand Slam breakfast.
One Denny’s in my area became an America’s Diner, which lasted only a few months before it also closed. And the other Denny’s seems to be on the brink - the menu has been cut and business looks very slow. We had a Wendy’s and a Domino’s also close within the last year. And the place that replaced Wendy’s - a Cajun place - also closed after about six-eight months. We also have a Sears that’s seemed on the brink for years. And a Taco Time closed in the mall food court. Sounds like next time I go back, the Sbarro’s might be gone too.
Before ordering, I used the Ladie's Room, and it was the most disgusting public restroom I have ever been in. I will not post the repulsive mess here. (Yer welcome) I should have left the premises immediately - but didn't.
When the hamburger came, it had two micro sized patties of 'beef' (?) in the bun. (NINE dollars!) They were thinner than Mickey D's baby burger, and were ice cold. The onion rings were so limp, they fell onto my hand when picked up, and they were barely even warm. The coating was not crunchy - but it was slimey! The malt tasted like chemicals.
I told the manager about the restroom as soon as I left it, and told the server about the horrible food that was served to me and my guests - (that no one could eat).
The manager told me she would try to get the restroom cleaned up soon, and the server offered me a free coke.
I will never eat at a Bob's Big Boy again. Of course they don't care - the only people who enter are tourists, and they aren't counting one bit on return business!
If any restaurant should be closed - it should be them!
We got a family-owned place where I live [Continental Pizza] that serves 12” x 9” rectangular 6 topping pizza for about $13.
Makes a meal for 2 people with 4 pieces left over for a snack the next day ...
And it is Waaaaay better [and cheaper] than Dominos ...
Also, large subs [12”], the mostly costly of which is $6 ...
The Dairy Queen in my town serves consistently good fast food. That’s where we head when we want fast food.
Love their hotdog and chicken baskets.
Now, I’m sad to hear about Marie, probably Denny’s also....I quit Wendy’s when they quit the “hot’n’juicy” adds a couple of decades ago (all their crap is dry as cardboard now). Sbarro’s ? That cardboard airport pizza? No big loss there.
when young scantily clad nubile women cannot entice men to eat a hamburger you know you are in trouble
‘Gone Galt’ here...not one extra dime being spent on ANYTHING outside of food and fuel UNTIL this country shows some sign of getting back on the right track.
What exactly is the, um, “danger” of bankruptcy? They file Chapter 11, close a few stores, lay off some deadwood, terminate a few contracts, and continue operations with no debt. Not getting the “danger.” It’s what you do when you get too bloated.
It was "scary" with "no end in sight" in 1961. And 1971, 1981, 1991 and 2001. And it was true. There was no end. 2011 and we're still here. 2021 we'll still be here. With maybe fewer Wendy's and more Culvers.
Trouble with these places, is for the most part, they don’t actually serve food. No, instead it is something that looks like food, tastes funny, and is more likely to have been made in a chemistry lab.
Worse yet, I think the modern grocery store has gone the same way.
We need a grocery store that only serves REAL food, grown without massive human interference, chemicals, alterations.
I suppose I can grow the stuff myself? I think that might have to be the next alternative.
When you look at national obesity today, much of it can be blamed on lack of excercise, but I actually think the majority of the problem is the content of “food” today.
