Since there was a lot of competition (from the likes of McDonald’s and Dunkin Donuts), the chain closed in 1981.
In addition to the competition they were up against, they also got a lot of criticism, in their Central Park Zoo location, for having bad quality food.
Little Tavern
Let’s face it, there were quite a lot of chains back then that replicated White Castle, and these guys were one of them.
Then again, they still served some good food, which means they’re entitled to a spot on this list.
Nedick’s
This chain started in New York City, in 1913, and expanded throughout the 1950s. They also had locations in New York, New Jersey, Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Washington D.C. Do you guys want to know how they started?
Remarkably, they originally only sold an orange drink! Over time, they added coffee, donuts, and hot dogs to their menu.
Shrimp Boats
If you love seafood, then this restaurant will be on the top of your list. Shrimp Boats was a famous seafood restaurant popular between 1955 and 1974. Their store locations grew to a total of 95 at its peak.
While most of their stores have now closed, there are still seven independent chains open until this day, located in Georgia, South Carolina, and North Carolina.
Shrimp Boats
We all love shrimp, so if you’re craving some, this place will definitely be able to satisfy it. Really, who could say no?
Personally speaking, Shrimp Boats is a place that’s given us a lot of fond memories to look back on. Do you have any memories in this place?
