Roy Rogers

The Roy Rogers Restaurants is named after old western star Roy Rogers and is a burger chain based mostly in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic areas. It was officially called RoBee’s House of Beef but was then acquired by the Marriot hotel company. They conducted an aggressive consumer sales campaign, which at one time attracted 600 branches throughout the USA. It was sold in 1990 to Hardee’s parent company, and now only 48 locations remain.

Boston Market

The Boston Chicken stands out for its unique rotisserie chicken. It is now called the Boston Market, though. It is most commonly found in the northeast/middle west, but also Florida and is owned by Sun Capital. In 2013, there were about 462 outlets, but today that number has dropped dramatically. The restaurant chain even confessed that it was undertaking a “multifaceted transformation plan.”
