Imagine a salad bar in todays world where there are 3 people working at a fast food place at a given time. Where they forget to put the burger in the bun.
 
Roy Roger's used to have a toppings bar. Buy the burger and pile on whatever you wanted.

We had a local place in Raleigh like that called Fat Daddy's. It was a legendary institution in town, then it shut down a decade ago and they opened up a f***ing Panera Bread in it's place. I was 24, but that's when I really felt the last part of my childhood die. I have such fond memories of getting a cheeseburger, then eagerly going for the toppings bar only to load myself up with a good pint of pickles. That's all I needed. I wouldn't even put them on my burger. Just next to it in the little tray.

Man, I still miss that place.

So was Chili’s. I think we only have one left in the state

I don't think I've ever seen a chilli's with a salad bar. Ruby Tuesday's had them, but the last one around us closed a few months ago

Sizzler.....

That place ruled. When we'd go to Florida every summer when I was younger, that was our spot

Sounds wonderful. Fuddruckers was similar, but they went under too

That's what I did too! A little of this and that, and a stack of pickle slices on the side
 
Ponderosa was the place as a kid my family and then usually like Grandmom + Aunt/Uncle went out to eat. Up on Roosevelt Boulevard near where Best Buy used to be when it was near Red Lion Road.

I remember after most of them closed we had driven out to drop some things off for a cousin in Lancaster and there was still one out there and we out there. Probably last time I ate at one.

Still do, just not many locations outside of rest stops anymore.

There was one up in north central PA when I was working up there, but that was probably 15 years ago at this point.

Pondersa had a sweet Sunday breakfast buffet that we would hit after church when I was a kid

Arthur Treacher's Fish & Chips (with a nod to Long John Silvers)

BUT, I still miss Gino's and their Gino's Giant and Sirloiner burgers.

Loved long John silvers. We I had my driving permit, my older sister would let me drive if I bought here lo Jo’s
