Proudly Serving All-American Food For Over 75 Years

Shoney’s is Today’s All-American Kitchen. We’ve grown a lot since our first location opened doors in 1947. Today, Americans can find Shoney’s restaurants in 16 states. Our warm, welcoming environment keeps generations coming back for another serving.

1947: A Franchise is Born

In 1947, the first Shoney’s drive-in restaurant was opened in Charleston, West Virginia. Five years later, the name was changed to Big Boy Restaurants – only to be renamed three years later to what is now known as Shoney’s.

1977: A New Era

30 years after kicking off as a Big Boy franchise, Shoney’s dropped the affiliation, swapping its iconic Big Boy mascot for our very own Shoney bear. As Shoney’s, the family-friendly restaurant expanded steadily, rolling out scores of new locations.

2007: New Leadership

Shoney’s received an advantageous boost, as leading entrepreneur, David Davoudpour purchased the company, instilling new energy, passion and purpose. Mr. Davoudpour demonstrated his deep commitment to bringing this American icon back to its glory days by making Shoney’s the model of excellence. He began with a new vision, focusing on three key principles: simplicity, innovation, and giving back to communities. This became Mr. Davoudpour’s primary mission for Shoney’s.

Now: A Fresh Direction

Under the direction of Shoney’s Chairman and CEO David Davoudpour, we continue to pride ourselves on delicious tasting food, great value and great service. All delivered with warm, Southern hospitality, with a twist. We’re revitalizing many of our locations with an exciting new direction and a renewed focus on fresh, never-frozen, All-American food, family and community. Come see us soon!
