Damon's grill and sports bar www.damons.com The food was awesome! Great ribs and chicken.

Churches chicken. They left here in the mid 80s, but I still remember how they taste.

Church's chicken had some good chicken. Their chicken kinda tastes like Popeye's. I like Popeye's chicken. I miss Shakey's restaurant. There was one in the Alexandria, Virginia area in the late 80's. Their all you can eat buffet was very good. They had macaroni and cheese, fried chicken, lasagne, spaghetti, pizza, tacos. I definitely miss that place.

I miss Brown's Chicken -- like their old ad said, "it tastes better!"

I do like Popeye's though as well. I've developed cravings for their spicy!

For almost a decade, we had an Outback right down the street from my home, but they closed it. Outback's are still in Massachusetts, just not so handy for me. I miss it. Sometimes we'd go for just appetizers and desserts. Coconut shrimp, potato skins, some liked the Bloomin' Onion but too greasy for me. Their apple/cinnamon/vanilla ice cream dessert was out of this world. :happyface

I actually had a pretty good thing going. I had a Subway, D'Angelos, Blimpie and Quiznos all right near me. Now, Blimpie and Quiznos is gone. Quiznos had excellent food but near me anymore. There still in Conneticut but still.

I wish Fuddruckers and Whataburger were still around, both had awesome burgers, especially Fuddruckers. I used to love Rax Roast Beef restaurants, but they went defunct back in the early eightys, although someone told me a few years ago that one still existed up North some where. I like Bojangles chicken but they are no longer in my area, they also had some really good sausage bisquits as well. I really miss Pizza Inn, i thought they had the best pizza around.

I miss the Taco Bell that was near me. They are around but not in walking distance to where I live.

I haven't had Taco Bell in over a decade.

Red Hot and Blue BBQ. They have the best potato salad ever. Ours closed a couple of years ago and the next closest one is about 40 miles away.

Sonic. They've left Fort Wayne TWICE now. Both times they were doing great business so who knows why they closed. :(

I wish there was a Godfathers Pizza around here. I haven't had any since the mid 80's in NC. That was always my favorite pizza.

I love Godfathers pizza. I practically lived on it when I was a teenager. It was always pizza at godfathers and a movie. Luckily there is still one left in my area. But 2 also left. I miss Whataburger and Popeye’s from when I briefly lived in Arizona. And from here A&W and Dunkin Donuts if that counts oh also Skippers fish and chips.

I wish RUSTLERS STEAK HOUSE was still around.

I think the closest Godfathers to me is about 2 hours away. I used to call up the local radio station sports show and answer trivia questions because they gave away free pizza's from Godfathers. Good times.

Yea I wish my town had a Dunkin Donuts. There's one over in the next town but I don't get over there much.

I miss Church's Chicken too, especially the wings and that crazy pepper. There was another chain that left my area when I was a kid in the early 80's called Gino's. They served the best burgers. I still remember the taste now and decades have past.

Sometimes high taxes in a certain town could do places in. There was this Popeye's restaurant so close to me did excellent business! One day it closed without warning. Come to find out the suburb it was located had the highest town taxes and the owner closed it. That sucked. I have to go to a further and smaller location now for Popeyes.

There are way too many Dunkin Donuts near me. I don't even go to any. Can't remember when the last time I went there. They aren't the same. If you have a Wegman's supermarket near you, that's the best place to get doughnuts.

Wegmans is based here in my city, but I know they've been expanding in Pennsylvania and into the Maryland D.C. area over the years.

We just got a Wegmans here in Virginia about two or three years ago. Everybody loves it.

I never heard of Wegman's . I wonder how far they are from me? I do go to Martin's Supermarket here in town and get doughnuts. The only problem is that they don't have much variety. I get the same ones over and over.

Thanks.

El Chico, I love Mexican food and I crave their avocado enchiladas.

Thanks.


Does it show any Wegmans near you?

It looks like the closest store to me would be the one in Frederick, MD. That's 40 minutes away.

Don't know if you have a vehicle, but one of these days, take the trip. Wegmans is worth it. The best produce and bakery. Very high quality food. Chinese wokery, ready made subs, Wegmans has it all.

It does sound good. I don't go up to Frederick too often but I might drive up there. I usually go up there to go to the mall, usually around Christmas time. I'm always looking for new food. lol

Yeah, we always have friends and relatives that come from out of town and Wegmans is one of the first places they want to go to.

A little off topic, but I wish I live in Redskin territory like you. Won't be able to this year, but in 2013, I am going to take a trip to a home game at Fed Ex. lol

Yea I get the Redskins on tv every week. lol I want to go to the Cowboys-Ravens game this fall but I don't know if I'll be able to. They only come up here every so often. I've only been to one NFL game and that was back in 1999 between the Ravens and Browns. I'd love to see a Cowboys game.

I had a Subway, D'Angelos, Blimpie and Quiznos all right near me. Now, Blimpie and Quiznos is gone.

I hit a nearby Blimpies once in a while. They're located inside a Marathon gas station. Once in a while, they offer a buy-one-get-one-free coupon in the Sunday paper coupon section.

damon's. dad said they didn't have enough food when we brought take out. it was plenty for me. dunkin donuts, krispy kreme.

ruby tuesdays,quizno's,and schlotsky's deli.

My college town had some of the best food that I dearly miss

There was a chinese place called New Kahala that was such a dive it was cash only but DELICIOUS and there was also a local deep dish pizza place called Quatros that was out of this world. I will totally have to have both if I ever end up back in that town.

We used to have............

KFC (closed 1982)
Red Barn (closed 1986)
Dominoes Pizza (closed 1993 or 1994)
Dominoes Pizza (again) (closed 2004)
Ponderosa (closed 2007)
Little Ceasar's Pizza (closed 1997)
Sometimes I wonder when Friendly's will leave us because I heard the corporation itself filed chapter 11 and they closed a bunch of them in the Boston Massachusett's (sp?) area.

I thought of a few more. Chuck wagon, Brown Derby, Main street pizza.

Restaurant chain that used to be in the area:
Red Lobster
They have the best biscuits. Their fried shrimp is really good. There is very little seafood that I like.

Bob's Big Boy. I miss their combo plate.

I miss Denny's, they closed down about ten yeara ago. They had the best breakfast in town, and were open 24/7.

One I mi$$ is Ponderosa.. Then they changed thier name to BACK HOME BUFFET (And I loved thier mac and cheese) and then sadly went outta business http://www.sitcomsonline.com/boards/images/smilies/frown.gif

Another one is COUNTRY BUFFET .. I loved thier terikyi chicken wings amoung other things...

I miss the original Burger King from back when they were still good, and not using highly engineered blubber calling it "meat".

I also miss Quiznos, Denneys, Azars (Big Boy franchisee), KooKooRoo, and Woolworth's lunch counter

Ya thats right Jim....

We used to goto BK every friday and it was delicious!!!!!!!

Burger King. I went there for my high school graduation dinner back in 2017, and it closed a few years later.

I once had Hardee’s in Saint Ann while I’m at work but it had been closed down since Last Summer.

I havent eaten at a Hardees in many years!!

Are there hamburgers still g00d??

Royal Fork and Chuck Wagon. I love the classic all-you-can-eat buffets. Old Country Buffet not as much, as their main courses became really watered down over the years.

I guess I miss pizza hangouts like Pietro's Pizza, Pizza Haven, and Godfather's Pizza, but that was mainly for the arcades when I was a kid rather than the food.

For seafood, I miss Sea Galley and Skipper's.

I miss Bob's Big boy , Red Lobster , Alcapulco Mexican restaurant and a lot of Sizzlers closed down too !:(

I miss Quizno's. Their Chicken Carbonara was the greatest sub.

I miss Godfather's Pizza. It went out of business in the late 80's when their parent company went bankrupt. They had the thickest, cheesiest pizza, it was so good. There's a different Godfather's Pizza in southern Kentucky but it's nothing like the one we had here in the 80's.

Boston Market

Quizno's, Outback, and IHOP shut down here. I miss all of 'em.

Rax Roast Beef Restaurants.

hometown buffet

Bishop's Buffet.

I miss Quizno's too. Are there any of those left anywhere?

Another one I miss is Orange Leaf Yogurt.

I never got the chance to eat there, but I wanted to as I've heard good things about it - Wahlburgers.

They had a spot in Coney Island that closed in 2017 and a Times Square location never opened.

I believe the closest one to me is on the boardwalk in Atlantic City, NJ.

Another place like that was Shakey's Pizza.

I also miss Winchell's Donuts, although to be honest the newer-style donut shops blow it away.

I'm surprised nobody's mentioned any grape seed extract joints! :spit: :rotflmao:

We had a Shakey's Pizza here in the 70's to early 80's. They wore red & white shirts or vests with white straw hats I believe. It was very popular with the nearby college students and the military soldiers. I ate there a few times once I got my drivers license. My parents would never take us, too noisy for them.
