- Grandy's Country Cookin' is a quick-service homestyle "comfort food" restaurant chain based in San Antonio, Texas. Still known for their homestyle meals, Grandy's specializes a hearty country breakfast while the lunch and dinner meals features fried chicken, country fried steaks, catfish and eight homestyle vegetables complimented with fresh-baked biscuits, dinner rolls, and their much heralded Sinnamon rolls. Grandy's was founded in 1973 by Walter E. Johnson and Rex E. Sanders, who became friends while working together as teenagers at a Dallas cafeteria. After launching and selling a successful chain of restaurants, the two young men created Grandy's, hoping to combine the efficiency of fast food with the ambiance of a full-service restaurant. Under the ownership of Saga Foods, Inc. a multi-concept restaurant firm, Grandy's experienced its greatest growth surge, primarily in the 1980s, having at its zenith almost 200 stores. A buyout of Saga by Marriott Corp led to a sell off of the Grandy's chain along with other concepts owned by Saga. In the late 1990s, Grandy's, now over 20 years old, began to close older locations and remote markets that were underperforming. They retreated to the core markets of Texas and Oklahoma with a strong presence in southern Indiana and northern Kentucky. As of May 2008, Grandy's is franchised in nine states, with 72 restaurants. Acquired by Sun Capital Partners of Boca Raton, Florida in 2007, Grandy's has been re-energized and a major remodel/reimaging program was launched in 2008. Largely a franchise owned concept today, there is renewed interest in strategic growth of Grandy's focusing on filling in the Core Markets of Texas, Oklahoma and Indiana.
