Founded in 1946 by the Furr brothers Roy and Key, the Furr's chain of restaurants has built itself a reputation of providing quality food at affordable prices.
If you're in the mood for a good, hearty meal which is just like what you'd rustle up at home, if you could, Furr's is just the place you're looking for. The restaurant has steadily built itself a loyal customer base, with many of the locals having grown up on their chicken-fried steak and baked fish. The menu is vast and changes on a daily basis, with every outlet featuring its very own daily specials. The fresh and moist oven-baked breads are a huge success as is their maple-cinnamon glazed ham. But as regulars will warn you, no matter what you choose to eat, make sure to save room for some pie. The variety is mind-boggling and ranges from a light and airy chocolate chiffon to the more hearty apple and pecan... and then of course, there is always the signature millionaire pie. You can order it by the slice if you're willing to experiment, or go the whole hog if you've already made up your mind.
Service is prompt, polite and always with a smile. The restaurant also offers you the option of a To-Go meal where you can either phone ahead or send them a fax. You can also purchase a gift card for a loved one for any amount between $10 and $500 to delight them with the wholesomeness of a home-cooked meal. To browse through the menu online, you can refer to the website http://www.furrs.net . The website is also updated with any promotions the restaurant is running as well as the nutritional value of most dishes on the menu.
