Coming soon: Food that Rocks!

JohnnyRocketsYou voted for it and we listened!  Over the course of the spring semester you might remember participating in a few different surveys for us either in person or online.  After analyzing over 500 responses from students, staff members, and faculty members, we were able to give Johnny Rockets a new place to hang their hat.

Stetson University is proud to announce its partnership with Johnny Rockets! Due to the customization of our unique location in the Hat Rack, however, materials had to be custom ordered delaying our opening, much to our dismay.  Construction is expected to be completed shortly with an opening date of early September. Our official Grand Opening will be October 3, 2014 in conjunction with Friends & Family Weekend.

We’ll offer some of the same great products that Johnny Rockets is famous for–from 100 percent fresh, never frozen, all-natural beef hamburgers to a bit more healthy options such as a grilled chicken sandwich and salad. Don’t worry, we carry veggie burgers too!  And of course, the hand-spun milkshakes are coming!

We’ll keep you updated with any changes or promotions via our social media sites. Should you have any questions, or want to participate in upcoming tastings, email our Director of Marketing, Lindsey Bishop at [email protected] and we’ll take care of you! 

About Johnny Rockets

Ronn Teitelbaum, an award-winning men’s fashion retailer, launched the first Johnny Rockets on June 6, 1986, on Melrose Avenue, in Los Angeles, Ca. He founded the concept on the belief that everyone deserves a place where they can escape from today’s complicated world and experience the uncomplicated goodness of classic Americana. The name originated by combining the timeless Johnny Appleseed story with the classic Oldsmobile Rocket 88. Together, they embody the concept of classic Americana and the promise of the future.
