Yukon, OK (RestaurantNews.com) After much anticipation, the mouth-watering combination of frozen custard and steakburgers is coming to Yukon in late January 2012 when Wichita-based RKS Ventures Inc. opens another of its Freddy’s Frozen Custard & Steakburgers® restaurants. The Yukon location will be the 7th Oklahoma City area location and the 11th for franchisee Bob Rasberry.
Located at 1680 Garth Brooks Blvd. in Yukon, the new, 3,000-square-foot eatery will provide a fun and friendly atmosphere for families to enjoy Freddy’s famous steakburgers, premium frozen custard made fresh daily and 1950s hospitality.
“Yukon has been asking for Freddy’s to come for a long time. With its vibrancy, family population, and economy, Yukon has all the qualities we look for as we expand,” said Rasberry. “We’re extremely excited about being part of the Yukon community and look forward to serving our delicious food to all its residents.”
More than 40 full- and part-time workers will be employed at Freddy’s. The restaurant will begin hiring for most of those positions in January. Managers are already being trained in other area locations. The menu features a variety of cooked-to-order items, including specialty hot dogs, chili, shoestring French fries and its namesake frozen custard and steakburgers.
RKS Ventures, which currently owns 10 Freddy’s Frozen Custard & Steakburgers® in the Oklahoma City area, Enid, and Dallas, has plans to open another Freddy’s location in Norman in late Spring 2012.
Since its original opening in Wichita, KS in 2002, Freddy’s has brought its customers American cuisine inspired by the 1950s staple of made-to-order burgers and shoestring French fries. Freddy’s strives to create a unique environment where great food is complemented by equally good hospitality. There are currently 56 Freddy’s operating in 8 states.
