Freddy’s opens in Alexandria on Thursday
ALEXANDRIA, La. – Freddy’s Frozen Custard & Steakburgers®, a fast-casual restaurant concept, opens Thursday, Nov. 7, at 1802 A MacArthur Dr. Freddy’s is known for its cooked-to-order steakburgers made with lean 100 percent ground beef, all-beef hot dogs, crispy shoestring fries and frozen custard treats made with freshly churned chocolate or vanilla frozen custard.
“MacArthur Drive has a steady flow of traffic through the area and is home to a wide variety of retail businesses and restaurants that make it a great next stop for Freddy’s,” said Brandon Thompson, franchise owner. “We're thrilled to bring the Freddy's experience to this new community. Our commitment to serving high-quality, cooked-to-order food and providing exceptional hospitality is at the heart of everything we do, and we can't wait to become a part of the neighborhood.”
The 2,795 square-foot, freestanding restaurant seats 98 guests, has additional seating on the patio and offers drive-thru service. Mobile ordering through the Freddy’s app and website is also available. Hours of operation are 10:30 a.m. to 10 p.m. Sunday through Thursday and 10:30 a.m. to 11 p.m. Friday and Saturday.
“First-time guests often ask, ‘What makes a Freddy’s steakburger special?’,” said Thompson. “We start with lean 100 percent ground beef, sprinkle on our famous seasoning, press the patty thin and sear on a flat-top grill until the edges are deliciously crispy. We regularly recommend the Original Double, which comes standard with two patties, two slices of cheese, mustard, onion slices and pickle planks.”
