Name a major restaurant chain that you have never visited / spent money in.

[Zavulon]

Me:

White Castle (I would, but none in my area)

Taco Bell (I have actually entered a Taco Bell to use its bathroom, but have never eaten there.)

Cracker Barrel

Whatever those "Big Boy" restaurants are called

Olive Garden (try not to hijack the thread, folks :rofl: )

IHOP

TGI Friday's

I regret that I can't add McDonalds or Burger King to the list. Sbarro's, too.

1. White Castle, Ruby Tuesdays, Cracker Barrel

Red Lobster, Longhorn Steakhouse, Bugaboo Creek

[Zavulon]

2. You just reminded me...

...by mentioning Ruby Tuesday, which I have visited, you reminded me that I've never been to a TGI Fridays. Time to edit my original post. :)

3. Dupe, delete

Itchy trigger finger on the mouse, I guess.

5. Ruby Tuesdays is quite good.

There's one in Decatur, Illinois, my hometown. When I go down to visit my family, I sometimes request that we go there for dinner. :-)

14. there aren't any local to me

so it's really a lack of opportunity in my case.

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

20. Meh.

It's good if you've got money burning a hole in your pocket, and you want huge greasy portions of something.

4. Bob Evans, Red Robin, Applebees, Cracker Barrel, Stuckeys, Lubys

[Gatchaman]

6. Red Lobster

They're always too crowded, and to be honest, it doesn't look that good (not a big seafood fan).

I also have never been to White Castle, In-and-Out, Jack In the Box, or Sonic, but that's because of geographic constraints, not choice :( Of corse, we only recently got an IHOP in this area, and I was underwhelmed.

My only regret is that I can't add Cracker Barrel to the above list.

Edit: I've never been to Stuckys or Howard Johnson either. I thought Stuckys was out of business.

7. i have fond memories of ihop.

noting like a big ole plate of "i don't feel good" at 2:00am on a saturday morning after a nightout at the bar. That ihop is long gone now.

I did go to Olive Garden once. They served me mouldy bread and then gave me a hard time about bringing me something else. Never went back.
