Earlier this month FAT Brands Inc who owns such brands as Johnny Rockets, Hurricane Grill & Wings, and more announced they will be bringing their Fatburger and Buffalo’s Express concept to Wichita.
Fatburger is a fast casual burger chain with over 200 locations based out of California. Meanwhile, Buffalo’s Express is a their wings concept brand. The dual Fatburger/Buffalo’s Express restaurants have picked up steam as of late with the nearest locations in Colorado and Texas.
No time table on when or where the three locations stated in the press release will be at.
Here’s the press release:
FAT (Fresh. Authentic. Tasty.) Brands Inc., parent company of Fatburger, Buffalo’s Express, and seven other restaurant concepts, announces the development of three co-branded Fatburger and Buffalo’s Express concepts in Wichita, Kansas. In partnership with Uncle John’s Brands, LLC, the co-branded restaurants will start to roll-out next year.
“In 2020, we significantly grew our presence of co-branded Fatburger and Buffalo’s Express, opening many locations both domestically and internationally,” said Andy Wiederhorn, CEO of FAT Brands. “Burgers and wings complement each other well and the demand is there from a franchisee perspective. We have been eyeing Kansas for some time and think both brands will be received well in the bustling city of Wichita.”
Ever since the first Fatburger opened in Los Angeles over 70 years ago, the chain has been known for its delicious, grilled-to-perfection and cooked to order burgers. Founder Lovie Yancey believed that a big burger with everything on it is a meal in itself. And at Fatburger “everything” is not just the usual lettuce, tomato, onion, mayo, mustard, pickles and relish. Burgers can be customized with everything from bacon and eggs to chili, jalapenos and onion rings. In addition to its famous burgers, the Fatburger menu also includes Fat and Skinny fries, sweet potato fries, scratch-made onion rings, IMPOSSIBLE™ burgers, turkeyburgers, chicken sandwiches, and hand scooped milkshakes made from 100% real ice cream.
From the Buffalo’s Express menu, patrons can choose bone-in or boneless wings accompanied by a range of sauces including Scorchin’, Carolina Fire BBQ, Asian Sesame, Coconut Jerk, Honey Garlic, and Sweet Bourbon BBQ. All of Buffalo’s Express menu wings are accompanied by celery, carrots, and blue cheese, ranch or honey mustard dressing.
