  • Exploring A Vintage Abandoned Arby's. Enjoy a look inside of this old Arby's restaurant that closed over 10 years ago. Unfortunately, over the course of that time, vandals have hit this place. The roof is in bad shape inside. However, the interior was completely dry, which surprised me. It's obvious from the looks of this restaurant that it wasn't updated for several years when it was open. A rare gem that you just find anywhere.

    I wish I was able to restore and preserve the building. Vintage buildings like these deserve to be preserved for people to come visit.

    Wish someone would go in there and restore it, it looks very vintage back when the restaurants had character and they had their own distinctive looks. It's in bad shape but luckily it was open and you were able to explore inside.

    We have one Arby's in town that still operates in one of these old buildings (barn shaped, maybe?). I remember going there as a kid in the eighties when they still had the giant hat sign. Lots of new ones have sprung up since then with more modern buildings, but I think it was the first in town.

      You dont necessarily need a good camera for this type of video. You wouldn't believe how many top channels do the majority of their filming on an old iPhone. That would let you get some videos out to possibly make a little money to put toward the actual camera you want. Good luck

    There’s an abandoned Arby’s in my home state of Michigan, on 3021 Washtenaw Avenue, one from the mid ‘60s that had a giant cowboy hat sign in front on two poles, slightly smaller than the one in this video, abandoned around 2008. I had a nightmare of being inside it, with rats crawling around my shoes. It’s fully exposed to heavy traffic, so I won’t risk going inside.

    Early to mid 80s arbys decor looks a lot like 1910 in marshfield wi before the remodel. Kinda shocked to see all the equipment left behind like the scales fryers and even the beef oven. Very cool to see. How do I know all this? I'm a GM of an arbys lol.

    There was an old 1980s style Arbys in Pigeon Forge Tennessee i ate at about 5 years ago. They even still had the giant neon Arbys sign out front. The inside of the restaurant looked very similar to this one. Last i was up that way it looked like they had remodeled it to the more modern style. It looked just like the one i grew up going to when i was a kid. Wish some of these fast food places could keep some of the old retro looking locations around. 😕

  • @nathansmith7790
    @nathansmith7790 Рік тому +3

    Epic! Looks like they close the last time and never reopened the next morning. I remembered seeing those old style Arby's around Phoenix. Now most of the old style are gone. Now they are now in more modern buildings. When I was in high school I worked at Taco Bell and the franchise that I worked for bought one of those old style Arby's and turned it into a Taco Bell. That was in the early 80s.

    This is a really cool Arby's. Too bad it was vandalized and no playground 😢. One of my Arby's in Clearfield, PA, had an outdoor playground in the 90's that I loved playing on as a child, but, it's gone now and seating is in it's place 😢.

  • @sdrape4964

    That place clearly closed before Arby's slogan was "We have the meats"
    Wouldn't surprise me if it closed when their slogan was "Arby's is different" and still had the 5 for $5 deal 😂

    Arby's had breakfast for a long time. I worked at one in the late 80s, and we had breakfast. One of the big sellers was French Toast Sticks. Not sure when they stopped having breakfast though.

    Years ago,and there was an old school Arby's on East 8MileRoad and Gratiot on the Detroit/Eastpointe City Limits. The old school Arby's has closed permanently years ago. The old school Arby's has been demolished and it is a vacant lot to this very day. The Arby's have never served Breakfast at the Detroit and Southeastern Michigan locations.
