CLEVELAND, Ohio -- Arthur Treacher’s is coming back, not that it ever left Northeast Ohio.
Nathan’s Famous, the Coney Island-born hot dog chain, is reviving the iconic fish & chips brand as a ghost kitchen concept.
Franchises, which won’t have brick and mortar locations but instead exist on food delivery apps, will serve Arthur Treacher’s classic fried seafood and chicken menu. Nathan’s Famous plans to add a modern twist to the offerings, with “upgraded proteins, more contemporary builds and a focus on shrimp.” That means new items such as the Boom Boom Shrimp Platter, Boom Boom Fries and even Nathan’s Famous hot dogs and hand-dipped chicken sandwiches alongside favorites like the original Fish and Chips platter, Shrimp and Chips basket, hushpuppies and more. No word yet if any of it will be served in a paper box resembling a British ship.
“We are thrilled to provide operators across the country with the opportunity to add Arthur Treacher’s to their portfolio,” said Nathan’s senior vice president James Walker in a press release. “Nathan’s Famous and Arthur Treacher’s have a long-standing relationship and we have worked diligently to keep the brand’s traditional menu items while also evolving the menu to fit the Nathan’s mantra of ‘Craveable, Memorable and Instagrammable’ product that we believe both operators and customers will love.”
The announcement is a boon to nostalgic fast-food fans. Arthur Treacher’s had more than 800 stores across the country during its peak in the 1970s. Today, only two are left. Both are in Northeast Ohio, in Garfield Heights and Cuyahoga Falls. Nathan’s Famous’s, meanwhile, has just one Cleveland-area location, at Crocker Park in Westlake.
