It’s not easy to find something to eat during the day on Christmas Day. Most restaurants, even the casual ones that very rarely close, shut their doors for the holiday to give their employees some time off.

Need a quick meal or an infusion of caffeine on Christmas Day? While most fast-food chains are closed on the big holiday, there are a few out there that are keeping the oven warm and the coffee fresh. Because so many fast-food restaurants are owned by private individuals (franchises make the world go round), there aren’t set hours for the locations listed below. And some locations that we haven’t listed might be open! But these spots are guaranteed to be […]
You can treat your Christmas blues by treating yourself to some comfort food at a discounted price. In Japan, Christmas is the most romantic time of the year. Sure, Japan celebrates Valentine’s Day too, but that’s more a day for initial confessions of love (and an excuse to eat chocolate). Christmas, though, especially Christmas Eve, is when established couples in Japan spend the night snuggling and whispering sweet nothings to one another as their passion easily wards off the winter […]
New Jerseyans may remember Paterson native Victor Cruz for scoring touchdowns as a member of the New York Giants, but they’ll soon have reason to know him for more than just football. Krystal Restaurants, a southern-based fast-food chain, announced a partnership with Cruz that will bring the eatery’s first locations to New Jersey. There will be five restaurants called “Victor Cruz’s Krystal,” and they’ll be in the area by the end of 2023, debuting in Cruz’s hometown of Paterson. The […]
Employees have been berated, attacked, had food thrown at them, and worse. A new report tallies 77,000 violent encounters on the job. In the spring of this year, Perla Hernández, an employee at a Burger King store in Campbell, California, was making a burger when she heard some commotion in the dining area. Stepping out of the kitchen, she was terrified to see a customer brandishing a knife in what appeared to be a dispute with another diner, Hernández recalled […]

So it may come as no surprise that In-N-Out has filed yet another copyright infringement lawsuit. This time, the fast food chain is suing a Michigan restaurant called Doll n’ Burgers, with locations in Tecumseh and Jackson, according to the Daily Telegram. In-N-Out is reportedly claiming Doll n’ Burgers has borrowed a little too liberally from its signature look, from a white, red and yellow color scheme to employees dressed in white shirts, red aprons and paper hats. In the lawsuit, […]
With the world regaining some sense of “normal” in recent months, a problem that didn’t really exist during the height of the pandemic is returning to our lives — the early morning coffee rush. Who amongst us hasn’t been twenty minutes late to work because we took a chance on a Starbucks drive-thru that deep down we knew we didn’t have time for? These days, it feels like there are even more drivers on the road than in pre-pandemic times. […]
In the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic, with restaurant dining rooms closed, chains counted on drive-through and takeout business to survive. Now they’re doubling down — testing drive-throughs with double, triple or even quadruple lanes. Wisconsin-based burger and custard chain Culver’s newest Chicago-area restaurant opened last week in Pullman, on Chicago’s South Side, with a two-lane drive-through that franchise owner Baron Waller hopes will get diners in and out faster than at his other restaurants, including one in the […]
