Really surprised that there was not a thread for this chain yet.  It's a chain of nostalgic (though not really retro) burger restaurants with lots of other comfort food on the menu.  I gather that they used to be widespread across the country, but now there are far fewer locations.  When I visited New Mexico, however, there were quite a few billboards for the chain, so perhaps they are more regionally focused now.

They're distinguishable by their beige exterior with dark green or turquoise trim, often with exterior lights over the awnings.

Here's a former Fuddrucker's outside of Cincinnati.  It closed around 2002 and is now an independent Mexican restaurant.

So Fuddrucker's is still around? I would really sell my soul for them to make a comeback!

Looks like they have locations in 32 states currently (though less than the past - for example NY only has 1, CT 1 also, NJ has 2 etc.).

They had a self serve fixing bar with vegetables and condiment toppings, that what made Fuddruckers better!  ;D

And the fries (or more accurately, potato wedges).  God, they were so good.

The only occasion when I get to eat at one is when I'm visiting Maryland.

Fuddrucker's did had pretty good fries that went great with the nacho cheese sauce from the condiment bar *slurp*!

There used to be a Fuddrucker's in Middletown Township/Langhorne/Levittown, PA.  This location has since bee ndemolished by PennDOT for major roadwork.

There's one at Fox woods Casino. We ate there a couple years ago, nothing special.

Visited a Fuddrucker's in either York or Adams County, PA on a trip to Hershey.  This location had been recently renovated, which meant that the Assorted Nostalgic Trinkets lining the walls were gone.

Also had some nice new menu options. Should have taken pictures, but I was hungry.
