Description

The Red Robin Story

The Red Robin legacy began in the 1940’s with Sam’s Tavern, a small tavern perched on a Seattle hilltop near the University of Washington campus. The owner, Sam, sang in a barber shop quartet and could frequently be heard singing the song, “When the red robin goes bob bob bobbin’ along…” In fact, Sam loved the song so much that he eventually changed the name of his tavern to Sam’s Red Robin and over the years it became known simply as Red Robin.

It was in 1969 that the tavern was officially transformed to the first Red Robin® restaurant, and began serving many of our most popular items that are on the menu today – the Red Robin Gourmet Cheeseburger and the Royal Red Robin Burger, which is topped with a fried egg.

While we have grown significantly from our early days in Seattle, we remain true to the characteristics of our culture that have made Red Robin what it is today. We are committed to serving an imaginative selection of fresh, high-quality gourmet burgers and other menu items in a fun, family-friendly atmosphere.

So What?
I had a friend who said I really had to go because the food was great and the atmosphere was fun. Well, if fun is defined as a sit-down riot, then I think that's a fair description. The room was packed, loud and with the way the building was designed, it reflected sound like an amphitheater. A glance at the menu made me check my wallet again. Burger, that's safe. Yeah, safe and bland. Like Hard Rock cafe' without New York City or the signed rock-star photos, it was a costly noisy endevour.    [06 Sep 2006 10:37:09]
