They filed for bankruptcy protection. It looks like they have a buyer though.

I wonder how many OGR members didn't pay their bill?
Probably Marty sneaked out without paying.
Whoa! Interesting the T/A wants them, so they must have been doing something right with their marketing model...just not with the cash flow. Hope the one in York stays open. I want to go back there in April.

It's just a ploy to make the purchase flow through the courts faster. T/A does not waste money on non-performers.
You get hardening of the arteries just driving past the place! That said, I enjoy it and hope we have it available for our Thurs get-together!
Did they pay for the car lifts or not? who knows, the car was on loan yes, but the lift was attached to the floor,
How , many burgers or Drunk patrons to watch Televison does that take, to pay for them!!!
Seems to be an identity crisis - Quaker Steak is better known for their wings (though I did not know this and ordered steak!)
So is the OGR meet still on for April at QS?
Do we have a backup plan?
Quaker Steak and Lube is UP AND DOING FINE at York. I just talked to the manager Phil Sterling today and he says, "Contrary to the rumors of our demise, we are indeed UP AND RUNNING, and looking forward to the return of the OGR Forum Members on Thursday night April 14th as usual." Phil told me that none of the franchise stores (such as his) under Quaker Steak and Lube are shutting down . It apparently only affected a limited number of corporate stores.
