Lawrenceburg Frisch’s Received Eviction Notice

Lawrenceburg Frisch’s Received Eviction Notice

The closing date is unknown at this time.

(Lawrenceburg, Indiana) – Frisch’s Big Boy in Lawrenceburg is about to close its doors.

The restaurant’s general manager told Eagle Country 99.3 on Wednesday that the restaurant had received an eviction notice. Several restaurants in the tri-state area have already closed or are expected to do so in the near future.

Eagle Country 99.3 has been asked to speak with corporate headquarters for further details and is awaiting a response.

In a press release, a group of senior Frisch’s Restaurant, Inc. executives led by Don Short and Cheryl White, both of whom have been with the Frisch’s company for decades, have acquired several locations and the rights to future development of the brand .

Short issued the following statement in a recent press release:

“We are very grateful and extremely excited to have the opportunity to move this beloved icon forward. Like many other family restaurant brands that have struggled due to the devastating impact of COVID 19, coupled with unprecedented inflationary pressures, some Frisch units are unavailable. However, other units are well positioned moving forward, and we plan to invest in these locations and add new units in the coming years,” he added.

The company made efforts to negotiate a resolution allowing all viable units to remain open permanently, or at least during the holidays, to save jobs and benefits for thousands of employees, but to no avail.

However, Frisch’s continues to strive to operate as many restaurants as possible while facing eviction proceedings in some units.

Frisch’s Big Boy was founded in 1947.
