Hickory, NC

1025 N. 2nd Street NE

This Pleasers is still open-voted best fast food in Hickory, NC for two years running-unfortunately for me the hours are a little strange-they're not open at all on Sundays, and close at 3 PM on Saturdays. Undoubtably a former Burger Chef.

No doubt at all, this Burger Chef is listed in the 1968 directory.

After a $100,000 remodeling job, the Burger Chef restaurant in Hickory, NC threw a grand re-opening party on April 30, 1977 that attracted a crowd which police estimates numbered between 9,00 and 11,000.  The festivities were featured in the July issue of Burger Chef Scene that year.  You can read the article and see pictures from the event here.
