Roy Rogers
Name: Roy Rogers Restaurants
Type of Food: Roast beef sandwiches, burgers and fried chicken
Interesting Fact: The Roy Rogers name was used because it was felt Roy personified an honest, wholesome image, as well as the nostalgia invoked of the ol’ West’s reputation for good beef and “down home cooking.”
History: Marriott International, Inc., founded the chain, licensed the name from Roy Rogers, and operated the restaurants from 1968 through 1990. The first location opened in 1968 in Falls Church, Virginia. In 1990, Marriott sold the chain to Hardee’s, who proceeded to convert 220 locations to Hardee’s, selling the rest of the locations to McDonalds and Wendy’s. By the end of the 1990’s just 13 Roy Rogers franchisees were in existence. Most were located along highways in the Northeast. In 2003 brothers Jim and Peter (Jr.) Plamondon announced their purchase of the Roy Rogers restaurant trademark and franchise system. An initiative began to revive the Roy Rogers brand. As of 2005, 55 restaurants are operating under the Roy Rogers Family Restaurants name.

My family have been addicted to Roy Rogers since the one in Falls Church opened. We were at the opening of the one in Alexandria where Roy appeared. We are now living in Winchester, VA and have to travel to Leesburg to enjoy your roast beefs. We would love to have one open here. If I were twenty years younger, I would open one myself, but being 80 have it’s disadvantages.

Visited Painfield Travel plaza of course a dummy stood in linee not knowing she did,nt order I asked the staring cashier if she was work got lip, another cashier called me geeze they opened a 2nd register at noon. ordered a bacon cheesburger, she could’nt find the key on the register. I said angrly does anyone here know what they’re doing.She asked another girl it remained a mystery. So she rings the burger and chaarges me for cheese. I (pissed) say how does a $4.49 burger become $5.08 she says tax, i say how much she says >39 I say thats wrong she yells at me don’t take it out on me I say don’t yell at me I’m not your husband. I say your charging for cheese which I already paid for. She didn’t get it so I left not happy with Roys. I know for a fact since I was a kid Trigger counts better than you employee’s Not a “Happy Trail”

My family has been an avid user of the Roy’s ranches for their Roast Beef since the one opened in Tyson’s Corner, VA. A new one recently opened in Front Royal, VA and since our Granddaughter lives there and we visit, we decided to stop for the beef. I was waited on by a young gent named Cody who, when not punching buttons, kept his hands in his pockets. Even while do the register, he maintained one hand in his pocket. My only hope was that he had both pockets sewn in his trousers and wasn’t playing pocket pool.
There was no supervisor in sight so I let it go. The food was still good, he didn’t have anything to do with the packing, thank heavens.
