Fuddruckers And Lubby's To Liquidate All Assets
- Thread starter DrForester
- Start date
I have a Fuddruckers near me and was bummed that they were closed during the time I was sheltering-in-place (I'm currently back at work). Now that they're open again, I really should get some take-out while I still can. As well as some bread... The buns are so good. š¤¤
This was my first thought as a MA resident. Have watched most of the Marvel movies there, and always stop by and eat there. 2020 continues to suck.
Yeah, that's our Fuddruckers too; attached to Jordan's Furniture. Sad if they close; we like to go there then wander the bizarre thing that is Jordons, which seems more like a move set than a furniture store.
I used to like Fuddruckers a lot when I was a kid. The location back home had a Gauntlet Legends arcade cab that I sunk a lot of quarters into. I came across one fairly recently and took my family in and told them I used to like eating there. The location we stopped in was one of the filthiest restaurants I've ever been in, the food took forever, and I got pretty sick from the burger.
If this winds up being the end for them, I'll always have memories of Gauntlet Legends, I guess.

I'm not sure about anyone that didn't visualize this upon reading the thread title.
We just drove past Fuddruckers the other day and I promised to take my daughter when Covid is over. This sucks.
I honestly don't know how Fuddruckers survives being part of the franchise here in Canada, in only the 2 relatively medium-sized cities in Saskatchewan, but withered elsewhere in the country. I'd have to guess it was when they expanded the business out to include arcades, batting cages and mini-golf?
Yeah, the Ruckers arcade business probably helps. And I imagine they can stand out a little more relative to the local competition in smaller cities.
There's still a Fuddruckers in Schaumburg (or at least there was last I knew which wasn't THAT long ago) which I've been to a few times and they were awesome. I got the impression that quality control was slipping though when a new location opened up in the suburb by me about 6 or 7 years ago. I was so excited to have one close (Schaumburg is a 45 minute drive, if I was driving that far for dinner it was usually for something fancier than Fuddruckers, as good as it is. It was the kind of place I'd go sometimes if I was in the area for another reason, but that wasn't that common). I went on opening weekend and the food didn't taste right, it just wasn't very good. I figured just opening weekend kinks though and I went twice more over the next 6 months or so. Both times it was just really mediocre. Apparently I wasn't the only one to think so, because I don't think they even made it a year before closing down. Nothing has gone in that location since.
They had put in a Fuddruckers in my old home town not long before I moved. It was real tasty. Managed to find 1 on an occasional vacation trip to Gatlinburg, wonder if it's still there.
I had a trip in the last year to my Hometown, and the Fuddruckers is now some Meat and 3 Veg place. Shame.

Good news!

A Classic Fast-Food Restaurant Was Just Saved From Extinction
Fuddruckers will keep on slinging "world's best hamburgers."
Once while standing in line at Fuddruckers, my rather uptight grandmother mispronounced the name as Ruddfuckers and I laughed, and I then uncomfortably witnessed her silently shaking with rage and shame for what seemed like forever.
Just had Fuddruckers after a long time this weekend. It's so good, I hope they all don't go away.
Should have specified this. Luby's also got some new ownership to continue.

So both restaurants will continue for the time being.

It turns out you may not have to hoard Luby's LuAnn platters like they're toilet paper during a pandemic.

So it is a poorly written article but appears a franchisee of 15 locations bought out the Fudd brand and operations in the proceeding. For 18 million?Good news!
