There are two Chick Fil A franchises near me that do just under 10 million a year in gross revenue each
That’s crazy for fast food
More like a busy Cheesecake Factory
Probably a few In and Outs in hot spots do that too
The one on Sunset and Orange in Hollywood for sure
It’s a 5-7 car double line all night
There’s a regional chain headquartered not far from me that could become a phenomenon along the lines of In and Out if they wanted, but they’re privately held and expand fairly cautiously, “Cookout.” Their drivethroughs are open late, always slammed. Once was double lane drive through only, but have opened stores with dining rooms in more recent years in addition. It’s owned by Junior Samples’ daughter and her family, believe it or not.
The one you can see from the 405, Hawthorne area, does killer biz. But so do all of the in n outs, once they are open for the day, they are blocking streets with cars in line til they close.
In-N-Out is good, but I still think that Carl’s Jr when the Karcher family owned it was better. They didn’t have to advertise, their food was their best advertisement. In-N-Out is still owned by the Snyder family and their quality should hold up as long as that is the case.
Just opened the second one in OR Friday morning here in Grants Pass. Total traffic mess with happy, smiling fans.
Forgot to say In an Outs
