Local Steak ‘n Shake Franchisee Debo’s Diners Celebrates 30 Years

  • Friday, January 31, 2025

Chattanooga-based Steak ‘n Shake franchisee, Debo’s Diners, is celebrating its 30th year in the Chattanooga community.

“We’ve seen time and time again that putting people first is good for business, and our community. Over the past 30 years, we have been honored to partner with the Chattanooga Area Food Bank, Children’s Hospital at Erlanger, and other amazing organizations that have allowed us to give back to the communities that support us,” said Debo’s Diners President Debbie Richman.

During the month of February, Debo's Diners will donate $1 to the Chattanooga Area Food Bank for each Red Velvet and Red Velvet Oreo Milkshake sold. In addition, they are hosting a virtual food drive, which will allow anyone to help contribute to the communities' needs.

Steak ‘n Shake was founded in 1934 and is one of the nation's oldest restaurant chains. Recently, Steak ‘n Shake announced that by the end of February 2025 all locations will switch to using 100% all-natural beef tallow to fry their signature shoestring fries.

Debo’s Diners is a two-time Steak ‘n Shake “Franchise of the Year” award winner with four locations in Chattanooga and Northwest Georgia. Additionally, Debo’s Diners was awarded the 2024 “Culture and Brand Award” and the “Partnership Award” by Steak ‘n Shake for their commitment to giving back to their communities and operational excellence.
