Red Robin
Red Robin is a casual dining restaurant famous for its gourmet hamburgers and bottomless steak fries. The restaurant operates under its four cornerstones: Values, People, Burgers, and Gift of Time. Though burgers are definitely the go-to item on the menu, there are plenty of other options to appeal to every member of the family including appetizers like onion rings and quesadillas, chicken or prime rib sandwiches, macaroni and cheese, milkshakes, signature cocktails, soups, and a number of salads. Vegetarians also have the option of ordering a veggie or Boca burger. More about the cost of owning a Red Robin franchise is below.
Facts & figures
Red Robin is a privately held casual dining chain. While the majority of the locations are owned by Red Robin itself, nearly one-third of the Red Robin restaurants are franchised.
Red Robin Franchise Opportunities - History
In 1969, Gerry Kingen bought a restaurant named Sam’s Red Robin, soon dropping the word “Sam” from the title. Ten years later, the restaurant started franchising, beginning in Washington and expanding around the northwest. Though Kingen stepped away from the company for a while, he returned in 1995 to boost profits. His return was successful – there are currently more than 400 Red Robin restaurants in operation throughout North America.
