Spinoff: Discuss your favorite fast food spots that's no longer with us (RIP)

[konceptjones]

The last few posts in the CFA vs Popeye's got me to thinking about spots that I used to eat at back inna day that have closed.


I'll start with one I was talking about in the thread: Hot N Now.

Hot N Now was the hookup in college. Burgers about the size of McDonalds regular burger but for less than a dollar (IIRC only 39-49 cents each). Decent tasting burgers and the fries weren't bad at all. It was drive-thru only, no walk-up window or anything so you had to get that one cat in the crew with a car to roll over there to cop bags full of 'em for the low-low.

There's only one surviving spot in the country: In Sturgis, Mi right on the 12 (aka "Michigan Ave"). Best believe I'mma fall through there when I drive back to Tha D.

Mr Hot Dog was my favorite place when I was a kid in the 70's. Damned good coney dogs and fries. Their menu started to expand to include chicken and fish but they closed the spot we had in Saginaw before the menu really got diverse. Like Hot N Now, there's only one left and it's in Bay City, Mi.

There's a grip of Church's out here. Generally speaking, If I just wanna grab a quick two piece thighs, I prefer Church's over almost every other spot.

fam... FAM!!!

Stuffed pizza at Sbarro's was sooooooooooooooooooooo goddamned good. It was a forreal miracle I didn't get fat or end up with clogged arteries in my late teens/early 20's 'cause I used to cop 2-3 of them stuffed slices on the regular.

I've never seen a freestanding Sbarro's in my life, always in a mall, and every one of them consistent with the food.
