Good-Bye George Webb … Hello Griddlers?

The South Milwaukee George Webb restaurant is reportedly one of six that will be renamed Griddlers Cafe after the restaurants defected from the franchise organization.

The change takes place Thursday.

Check out the blog posting from Doris Hajewski here. And here is the Business Journal story. From the latter:

Don and Robb Hensiak are changing their five George Webb restaurants in southern Milwaukee County to Griddlers Cafes starting Thursday, the release said. Another former Webb franchisee, Diane Neavins, is changing her Menomonee Falls restaurant to a Griddlers Cafe under a licensing agreement with the Hensiaks.

Griddlers will serve breakfast, burgers, deli-style and grilled sandwiches and homemade soups and chili 24 hours a day, the release said.

The change will give the owners more freedom to be creative, said Don Hensiak. For example, a new menu item is the “jalapeno hangover burger,” a bacon double cheeseburger with jalapenos and an egg. The owners have increased the size of the hamburger patties and switched to a different bun.

“Everything that we look at on the menu, we’re trying to make a little tweak or a little better or at least match the quality of Webb’s,” he said.

The South Milwaukee George Webb is located at 211 Chicago Ave.
