The 15 Biggest Failed Restaurant Chains

VIP’s

This Salem, Oregon chain was once the largest Oregon-based restaurant chain, with more than 50 locations in the western United States at its peak in the early 1980s.

With most units located near freeways, this chain was similar to Denny’s, open 24 hours and taking a “coffee shop” approach.

Starting in 1984, however, the chain began selling off its locations (more than half to Denny’s), and by 1989 the last of the restaurants had been sold.
