What happened to all the Grandys?

[SpursforSix]

I used to get the all you can eat chicken fried steak. And their breakfast was pretty iirc. Don't see them at all anymore.

In college, my buddy would get the all you can eat chicken and wrap a bunch in napkins and stuff them in his backpack to take home to his wife.

The food sucked and they went away

Nah. I mean..it didn't taste like real chicken fried steak but the gravy, roll, an mashed potatoes were good. A pm'd their breakfast was really good.

There's a Grandy's in El Paso about a mile from my dad's house. Can't beat their breakfasts. My kids will eat there every day when they are visiting Gramps :)

They were fine except for the dirtiness, bad service, bad atmosphere and terrible food. Not sure why they've struggled.

Maybe you hit the nail on the head. The ones I went to were nothing like that. Inconsistency maybe.

:lol this.. I have a faint memory of Grandys as a kid, and it was of a dirty shit hole that never had any customers that was closed to become the first CiCi's Pizza in town

To be fair, I think I've only had one Grandy's experience in the last 10 years, and it was in the shittiest part of Garland, Texas.

Yeah but you couldn't beat the stench of cigarette smoke while you ate that filmed over gravy on those lumpy, cold mashed potatoes. mmm

And that biscuit sitting in dishwater on that white porcelain plate with stains from 5 meals ago still growing on the rim. Wash that down with that fountain drink with about 25% the syrup it should have, like an Alka Seltzer with a small coke chaser.

There's one a couple miles from me in Denton

Where the fuck are y'all eating at??? That doesn't sound anything like the Grandys I went to. No smoking, no plates. You're thinking of your own granny or something.

:lol while we're on the subject of ghetto restaraunts.. What about fucking Fred's Fish? You know you've arrived in the hood when you see one of them.. Seriously nothing better than ordering overpriced square fish filets from an eyebrowless girl standing behind burglar bars.

Yea really :lol That Grandy's in EP is the only one I've ever been to and it's a tidy little place. Kind of like Cracker Barrel Lite.

LMAO!!!

All you can eat chicken fried steak? I'd give my eye teeth for such a set up. I'm limited to the Tuesday special at KFC when they sell a chicken fried steak and they're proud when you order it. It's pure garbage and yet every fucking Tuesday I roll in.

yep. you could pick all you can eat cfs or fried chicken. this included all you can eat rolls, mashed potatoes, vegetables. all though I doubt anyone going for all you can eat chicken fried steak was going back for more green beans.
I'm still not sure why they made you pick either chicken or the steak.

Later on, they got rid of that. And they went with all you can eat livers and gizzards. for real.

Not to mention they have to go to the ocean to catch the fish before they can actually begin cooking your order.
