Fuddruckers® Sets A New Course In Annapolis, MD; Home Of The World's Greatest Hamburgers® Gets Ship-Shape With Major Renovation

BALTIMORE, Sept. 13, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Fuddruckers, home of the "World's Greatest Hamburgers," has just put the final touches on an extensive renovation of one of the company's longest continuously operating restaurants.  The Annapolis landmark, which is located at 175 Jennifer Road near the area's famed waterfront, first debuted in May 1985, just a few years after the fast casual chain was founded in San Antonio, TX.  It is one of five Fuddruckers in Maryland.

Guests are now greeted to a redesigned exterior incorporating an enhanced entrance, new stucco and awnings, plus a tower element incorporating the Fuddruckers logo.  The interior, which encompasses 6,617 square feet, has been completely refashioned to showcase the company's dynamic, new interior scheme that pays homage to the chain's signature, roadhouse look, while streamlining the popular environment for today's more sophisticated tastes.  The exhaustive project, which included new paint, flooring, countertops, wainscoting and restrooms, has created an inviting open concept floor plan ideal for everything from a family gathering to a couple's night out.

According to Peter Tropoli, Chief Operating Officer, "With this major reinvestment, we are excited to reintroduce one of America's most unique coastal communities to one of the country's premier fast causal brands."

Since 1980, Fuddruckers has been obsessed with making the world happier, one great hamburger at a time.  Grilled-to-order burgers feature always fresh and never frozen, 100% USDA premium-cut beef with no fillers or additives.  A signature is the delicious sesame-topped buns that are baked from scratch on-site throughout the day to achieve the perfect combination of crisp crust and melt-in-your-mouth texture.
