Rooted in nearly 90 years of American dining history, Big Boy first began in 1936, when founder Bob Wian opened a 10-seat diner in Glendale, California.
It was inside Wian's pantry that the original Big Boy double-decker burger was created, impacting family dining across the country.
"Big Boy’s legacy remains centered on connection," said the release. "Families still gather in booths, celebrate milestones, share slices of pie, and enjoy dishes handmade with the same care and craftsmanship that made the brand an icon.
"A Very Big Boy Holiday celebrates that heritage by recreating the nostalgic holiday magic, complete with restaurants decked out in retro décor, and the flavors and special moments that generations of guests remember best."
