Have You Seen Long John Silver’s In Richland Washington?

You might not even know about Long John Silver’s in Richland Washington but it’s there inside the Taco Bell near Walmart at 2485 Queensgate.

A Brief History of Long John Silver’s

Long John Silver’s got its start back in 1969 when the first restaurant opened in Lexington, Kentucky. The restaurant was founded by Jim Patterson and soon grew to over 1000 restaurants worldwide.

As you might expect, the focus at Long John Silver’s is on seafood. The most popular menu item is undoubtedly the “Big Catch.” This dish comes with a hearty portion of fish, hush puppies, coleslaw, and your choice of two sides.

Long John Silver’s was once part of the Yum brands which includes KFC and Taco Bell but it sold most of its holdings to its group of franchisees in September 2011 and is now 80% franchise-owned.

So I did a quick search because I was wondering if Long John Silver’s had more locations throughout Washington State and I couldn’t find any. I located several Long John Silver’s in Oregon, one in Troutdale and another in Hillsboro.
