At a gararge sale a few weeks back we came across a coffee mug from Burger Queen, anyone know anything about this chain, where we they located ? And when did they go out of business, or by some great chance are they still out there locally somewhere ?

Burger Queen was based in Louisville, KY, and operated in that region. At some point they changed their name to Druthers. In the early 90's Druther's was bought out by Dairy Queen. There is still one Druthers in operation at 101 North Columbia Avenue in Campbellsville, KY. I have been there on fast food pilgrimages multiple times, and am happy to report they have great food. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burger_Queen

There was a Burger Queen in Lakeland, Fl in the 70's. There was another one either in Winter Haven or Auburndale, Fl during that same period. I don't know if were they part of the chain mentioned earlier in the thread. I do remember them having a drive through which was pretty unusual for the time.

I remember a Burger Queen in Ruskin, FL (south of Tampa). What was funny is right up the road, there was a Dairy King.

I posted this on another thread. There is one in Ethiopia, no kidding! I thought it was a joke.
