Alas, "Waddles" has recently closed in Portland OR. Their slogan was, "You walk in, but you waddle out!" Their onion rings were to die for. :-(

And those 'Waddles' home fries at breakfast...yum yum.
(Can't believe they closed for a Krispy Kream of all things, and now Krispy has decided against it afterall. )

There's a butcher/deli and take out in Chicago called "Moo and Oink".

just want you to know the "lucky Noodle" may be a funny name but they do have pretty good food - I eat there quite often

Used to be a bar near the Univer of Oshkosh in WI--might still be there---callled "The Library". Get it?

We still remember a place we passed once on vacation. The Broken Knuckle-It's Just A Joint.

Pub in Fells Point in Baltimore . . "And the horse you rode in on"

I don't remember where, probably in California somewhere, a Thai food restaurant "Thai me up".

In Park City, we also have a Nacho Mama's. In Salt Lake, there is also a Brewed Awakenings coffee drive thru.

My favorite is a bar that's been around many, many years. Used to be called "My Wife's Place". Now it's "X Wife's Place."

Rich....*** "And the horse you rode in on"
is my new favorite these days LOL
(expression, not bar)

Don't rememeber the name of the bar but in a tiny cowboy town here in Northwest Montana they have an annual

Testicle Festival at the bar.

In Avon Colorado a liquor store
called "Beaver Liquors"
:-)

Hey Rain_Monkey03 you started a pretty funny post here and got a lot of responses cause it's a fun post which we need more of! I suggest you start another one on funny names/slogans of businesses.

I would do it myself but this is your gig so go for it.

I'll give you a start. There is a septic system cleaner truck that goes around here on Cape Cod with a slogan "We are #1 in #2".

"Between the Buns" -hot dog shaped trailer hot dog vendor in Orlando

"Lik-A-Chik"-my parents sent me this on a post card but I can't recall if it is in the Pacific NW US, or Canada...

When I was in Portland, OR, we ate at a Vietnamese restaurant called MisoHapi.
It was really good and our tummies were very happy!

Fudruckers is not just in socal...it is in midwest also and I think it started in Atlanta or the south somewhere

There's the Spotted Dick pub in Toronto...

Wednesday - you beat me to it - I was reading the thread and thought I just had to post the "A&K Lick-A-Chick" www.lick-a-chick.com.
It's in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia.

There's a commercial on TV now with a fake restaurant that is getting no business - it's name is "Sam 'N Ella's Restaurant" (or something close to that).

Found it hilarious as we would always joke about inviting Sam and Ella to dinner when people would talk about keeping areas clean when preparing raw chicken or having undercooked burgers.

Quite right, kcapuani! My daughter used to work there. It was always a bit embarrassing explaining that to people. :)

There used to be a hot dog stand in San Francisco called "Franks for the Memories"

Then there's "Beaver Dick's" in Jackson Hole...

The Library was the name of a club in Lincoln RI also - not too far from a number of colleges. "Tell my parents I'm at the Library if they call!!"

And the campus pub at Fairfield University (home of the Stags) was called the Stagger Inn.

On Plum Island there was a little take out place that was called Atty. May's. - owned by a lawyer.

thanks Bart, too funny !

There's also "BeaverTails" in Ottawa and in Halifax, NS.

A new restaurant will be open in San Francisco soon called "Parawdise" - raw food place on Post @ Taylor.

Slippery Noodle Inn in Indianapolis

The Paisley Pineapple and Sofa Bar will be on Trade Street between 5th and 6th Streets. It should open by late summer or early fall.

Skinny Legs is a great little place with awesome cheeseburgers. Atmosphere is perfect. You have to be there to appreciate it.

Wok 'n Roll, in DC's Chinatown.

and of course:

Dirty Dicks, in the Outer Banks

Saw a sign coming home from work- new restaurant for breakfast/lunch only

called EggCeTeria

That's how they spelt it. E,C,T capitalized.

Too many to peak thru so I hope I'm not repeating.

Big Pecker's Bar and Grill Ocean City MD area.

The Bearded Clam, also OC MD.

Mustard's Last Stand, Kauai.

Da Booze Shoppe, Kauai.

The Whole Enchilada, Kauai.

Wok on Fire, Wocklin...I mean Rocklin, CA.

Dick's in San Diego and I think Dallas or Flagstaff. The staff is really rude to you, hence the name.

Dick's in San Diego and I think Dallas or Ft Worth. The staff is really rude to you, hence the name.

Laundromat on Haight Street in San Francisco called Haight To Wash. A take out place just down the street from the laundromat is called Don't Call It Frisco.

A liquor store in MA:

Bunghole Liquors...why?

Great thread :-)

At Gulf Shores, AL:

A Wok on the Beach

I always thought Dirty's in Houston was a strange name for a restaurant. They sure do make a great chicken fried steak, though.

Can't tell you where I saw these:

Meow-Bow Kitchen.

Cactus Jack's Halfway Cafe.

Suds n Suds in Corvallis, OR. Half of it is a pizza place with a great bar where you can drink yourself around the world, and the other half is a laundromat. Perfect for college students!

Well in Vallejo CA there use to be a takeout placed named The Chicken Spit. Name got changed eventually.

we have a restaurant across from a courthouse that is called "The Verdict's Inn"
