I went there a few years ago late one night... It made Denny's seem pretty tame in comparison. I never went back after that experience. Although during the day I hear it is pretty nice "like a friendly's".
There is a lot in store for you where clean, fresh and good make a GRAND UNION.

Down to 10 locations....

With the 2010 closings of the last two CT stores, but Wikipedia lists Bickford's as a defunct chain...

Sign in the window at one CT location redirected customers to the Brattleboro VT location!!

Make that redirected to Woburn MA...  The Brattleboro, VT location was abruptly closed recently:

Holy shi*. I thought for sure that would be the one to stay open.  :'( It was my mom and dad's favorite place to dine whenever they visited Brattleboro. Oh well. At least they got one last meal there together before my Dad passed away in November 2010. They were there just a couple weeks before he passed.

It could have been worse.  Remember when Ground Round went bankrupt and kicked out paying customers on a Friday while they were still dining?

Yeah I remember hearing about that.

The old Bickford's in Enfield CT is being remodeled interior and exterior.
The rumor is that Chipotle Restaurants is moving in. It will be interesting because a Moe's just opended right down the road next to OSJL.

So, which will last longer... the 6 Bickfords or the 2 HoJos?

(Or maybe the 27 Ground Rounds or 32 Bennigans - they also have 25 or so foreign listings, a good number in South Korea and Cyprus - maybe not the best overseas choices :)

The former Bickford's in Brattleboro, Vermont is becoming a Ramunto's Pizza Restaurant. Ramunto's is a New Hampshire based pizza chain. This article is from November 2013.

When did Salem close?

Zayre88

Not sure... It's off the website and on Google it is listed as closed.

Could not find any news about this closing.

Here's a picture from before the location became a Bickford's Grille:

Did it close? What's there now if anything?

New logo released on their website:

At this point, why are they bothering with a new logo?

Still 4. Brockton, Burlington, and Woburn which are Bickford's Grille. The 4th is in Acton, which is a regular Bickford's.

Guess that answers that question (I'll assume at the time I was referring to Bangor and Lake Placid, as the Lake George was in it's closure then - and of course both of those are now gone, with LG not so far behind...).
