Well, darn, I've only eaten there twice, but I imagine this will spread their patrons across other chains, sadly.

Dang. There was a thread on GB but I used to love the Luby's on S Texas in Bryan. Broiled fish fillet, fried okra, salad and pecan pie w/coffee for dessert. There was a little, eccentric English lady who worked the beverage cart there and never failed to keep the iced tea and coffee topped up along with her banter. This was in the mid-late 80's.

LuAnn Platter of Fried Fish.

Every visit since I was 6 years old.

Don't go but once a year these days. But it was always comforting to know it was there anytime I felt nostalgic for the only out to eat place we went to on a regular basis growing up.

Their patrons are usually in bed by 6, so you should be good.

Next up...Sirloin stockade? Although all 20 of the former Luby's customers might give them a temporary boost in sales.

I'm in my late twenties and loved Luby's growing up. I still try and make two trips a year. Their mac and cheese absolutely slaps.

Lubys had heart disease before the virus. It was just a matter of time even without the Covidity.

This strikes the heart with much pain for the retiree crowd.

Think I will burst a move over to the one on Blanco tomorrow for some meatloaf, mash taters, green beans, and jalapeo corn bread. Ice tea with lemon.
...maybe a piece of lemon pie.

What about Fuddruckers? I always liked their burgers, but all the ones near me have shut down. Hasn't really changed much in 30+ years. Probably why I like it, and why they are shutting down.

For a time my roommates and I would go to the Luby's each week, Tuesdays I believe, and pile food on the tray almost like John Belushi, all for roughly $5. That was fine eating. And I remember that little eccentric English lady well - she was memorable to be so well remembered 30-something years later.
