Ground Round Grill and Bar

Ground Round Casual Dining Restaurant Franchise:

What is the Ground Round Grill & Bar?

Call it a new energy. A new vision. A new commitment. Whatever you call it, it adds up to one thing: a great new opportunity for you.

As one of America's oldest and most enduring casual theme restaurant chains with over 32 years of successful operation, the Ground Round Grill & Bar has a long and proud history. Our restaurant concept was the pioneer of casual dining, the fastest growing segment of the restaurant industry. Based on a "neighborhood pub", it was a place where everyone felt at home in a casual, comfortable setting with a restaurant and bar.

Today, the Ground Round Grill & Bars concept caters to families, singles and sports enthusiasts alike. Our menu offers a breadth of mouth-watering choices, a fusion of flavor designed to satisfy all kinds of tastes, and value unparalleled in the mid-scale casual dining segment.

What's in it for you?

You'll be part of the Ground Round Grill & Bar name, a well-known brand name that instantly brings to mind great food and unbeatable value while breaking into the fastest growing segment of the market at a time when other casual theme restaurants have no franchise opportunities. In fact, large areas of the United States are still available for single or multi-unit development agreements. So you'll have the opportunity to grow too. And, unlike most other franchises, we can help you get up and running in as little as six months.

You'll also be part of an award-winning organization.

Our walls are full of them. In the last three years alone, we've won more than our share of awards in almost every area of food service.
