MOOYAH Plans to Add 26 Locations in Houston

Houston – MOOYAH **Burgers, Fries & Shakes, a fast casual, “better burger” chain, is ready to satisfy the taste buds of burger enthusiasts in Houston. The brand is planning to add 26 locations across Greater Houston over the next decade. It is specifically scouting out real estate in Galveston, The Woodlands, Cypress, Spring, Conroe, Baytown, Pasadena, Pearland, Friendswood, Sugarland, Richmond, Rosenburg, League City, Deer Park, Bellaire, Greatwood, Katy and Tomball.

The Plano based franchise concept offers mouthwatering made-to-order burgers, French fries hand cut from Idaho potatoes, and real ice cream shakes.

“We are laser focused on expanding our presence across our home state of Texas,” said MOOYAH Burgers, Fries & Shakes COO and President Tony Darden. “This is where we are born and bred. We have grown up here, and Texans truly love our stand out product and quality Guest service.”

MOOYAH has over 70 locations nationwide, including 23 locations in Texas throughout Greater Dallas, Austin, and El Paso areas. The new locations in Houston are set to create over 500 jobs.

“As we look to close out every corner of Texas, Houston is a logical next step for us. As the largest city in Texas, it’s a no-brainer that we’ve honed in on finding the right franchise partners to grow with us across our home state. We are looking forward to bringing new franchisees into the MOOYAH family and bringing our one of a kind ‘better burger’ experience to Houstonians.”

At MOOYAH, Guests have the advantage of choosing from a variety of bun options, such as baked-in-house artisan potato or multigrain wheat non-GMO buns and hand-crafted lettuce buns called Iceburgers to accompany the never-frozen, 100% Certified Angus Beef® burgers, all natural Jennie-O® turkey and mouthwatering black bean veggie burgers. Each gourmet burger can be customized with six cheeses, Applewood smoked bacon and sliced avocado, along with 10 free veggie toppings and 10 free sauces.

MOOYAH's hand-cut fries come together in a six-step process that takes a total of 24 hours to completely prepare. A delightful combination of constant attention and a little magic help transform U.S. No. 1 Idaho potatoes into perfect, crisp-on-the-outside and fluffy-on-the-inside fries. Guests also have the choice of savory sweet potato fries. Never one to forget dessert, MOOYAH offers 100% real ice cream shakes, allowing Guests to choose from seven flavors ranging from vanilla and Hershey's Chocolate® to Reese's®, Oreo® and more.
