The rent was $5000 a month which is very high for an independent operator to have to pay. A national chain (Burger King, Hardee's) might do well there. It's too bad the landlords are the only ones making money these days.mrmerkurhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12495431897210698796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1889765136853809643.post-16015901107519836232009-02-26T09:44:00.000-06:002009-02-26T09:44:00.000-06:00Callahan's used to have the best Monday burger spe...Callahan's used to have the best Monday burger specials (87th and Rosehill in Lenexa), but unsure anymoreAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1889765136853809643.post-18719226202242017142009-02-23T15:52:00.000-06:002009-02-23T15:52:00.000-06:00Well damnation, I almost went there today.

I had a few issues, but it was the best flat-top cooked burger in the immediate area (if someone knows of another please share). Bam's, Grandstand, and Burger Joint are all good (except Burger Joint's breaded fries recently, WTF), but this place was nice and close.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, thanks for the update.Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05654378614980444082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1889765136853809643.post-17047911676666178002009-02-23T13:42:00.000-06:002009-02-23T13:42:00.000-06:00Was this the place in the former KFC (and later tw...Was this the place in the former KFC (and later two different Mexican restaurants) space? There is something about that location that just doesn't work. I can't put my finger on it, but I'd bet dollars to donuts it's the location.JJSKCKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12980532680529123164noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1889765136853809643.post-31678733233830522792009-02-23T11:26:00.000-06:002009-02-23T11:26:00.000-06:00Well, I can't answer your question.

I did notice that during the last two very windy days, parts of the building had been blown off and remained in the parking lot. They had a large pointed cap on top of the building that apparently blew off and on another date I had seen a couple of the window awnings laying down on the ground.
