The concept for The Great Steak & Potato Company was formed in 1982 - with the opening of our first store in Dayton, Ohio.

Our concept was a simple one. A "meat and potatoes" fast-food operation, providing a unique visual, sensory and eating experience for the customer, with the emphasis on low cost and high value for the customer and a low operating cost and high return for the store.

Our signature items - genuine Philadelphia Cheesesteak sandwiches; fresh-cut French fries; fresh-squeezed lemonade; chicken; ham and veggie "Philadelphias;" baked potatoes with all the toppings.

Our signature attractions are only the finest, freshest ingredients. Grilled and prepared to order, right in front of the customer.

Today The Great Steak & Potato Company consists of hundreds of stores (20 of which are company owned with the remainder franchisee owned) in 40 states, Canada, the United Kingdom and Middle East.

There are several thousand chain employees system-wide. We provide an optional centralized computer accounting service with both food and labor cost programs. We realize controlled growth of at least 25 stores per year.

That's The Great Steak & Potato Company.
