Now Through Labor Day, Shoney’s Will Feature Summertime Classics, Including Shoney’s Whole Strawberry Pies To-Go and other Go-Tos for Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner, When the Season Has Guests On The Go

America  (RestaurantNews.com)  For 78 years, Shoney’s has created meal memories for millions. And with ‘100 Days of Summer at Shoney’s,’ the rock star restaurant brand is celebrating all the great reasons that it is still THE destination for families and folks who are on the go during the summertime.

It’s the time of year that is all about road trips, kids out of school, picnics and parades, a robust breakfast to start the day and lunches and dinners after a day in the sun or on the road. Shoney’s, renowned nationwide for its southern hospitality with a twist, is amping up its All You Care to Eat Fresh Food Bar with summer-centric options across all dayparts for every member of the family.

“Shoney’s and summer have been best friends for decades,” quipped Shoney’s Chairman and CEO, Mr. David Davoudpour. “We value and embrace Shoney’s fans every day. We also understand that folks with fond memories of Shoney’s may only see us during their vacation or travel time this year. We want to be part of their new memories as they gather with us this summer.”

100 Days of Summer at Shoney’s will feature delicious desserts, including Shoney’s Whole Strawberry Pies To-Go and individual slices of Strawberry Pie. Shoney’s Strawberry Pies are made in-house from scratch, featuring delicious, fresh strawberries in a flaky crust, mixed with Shoney’s special glaze, and finished with whipped topping.  Shoney’s Hot Fudge Cake, a dessert with its national holiday, is also a delectable mainstay. Shoney’s has served millions of servings of both in its coveted. Each has inarguably played a key role in the brand’s recent resurgence.

“Fresh Salads, thick sandwiches, signature items like our All-American Burger, homespun soups and super sundaes? It’s all here,” continued Mr. Davoudpour, who, for the past 18 years, has been on a quest to continue reinvigorating one of America’s favorite brands. “When we say there is something for everyone, we mean it and we serve it. Drop in, eat to your stomach’s desire and get back to your vacation or road trip. Our doors are wide open and your favorite items, always fresh and delicious, await you. Enjoy it all with a Coca-Cola product in a friendly atmosphere. As we love to say, “Let’s Eat.®.”

Shoney’s category leadership, relevance to, and reverence from the restaurant industry are inarguable and impactful. Decades ago, Shoney’s became the epitome of the family dining experience and remains a recognized brand. It is consistently praised for having the best value rating among all family dining chains while being hailed for its service, menu variety, and diners’ recommendations.

Since acquiring the great American eatery in 2007, Mr. Davoudpour has been on a driven and spirited mission to reinvigorate and revitalize Shoney’s, one of the first and most popular family casual dining concepts in the United States. To return to what Mr. Davoudpour confidently calls Shoney’s “Glory Days,” the brand hopes to grow through franchising following an extensive revitalization effort. Shoney’s is offering franchising opportunities to qualified single and multi-unit candidates.
