  • Abandoned Arby's - Pittsburgh, PA. Enjoy a look at this recently vacated restaurant that has some age to it. This is another example of an older location to forego remodeling.

    Full disclosure: I am saying this as an Arby’s connoisseur, but for a “fast food restaurant”, I do think that Arby’s gyros are very good. Great video as always Wallie!!!

    A classic old Arbys location very cool. We had a very old arbys location where I live that had been open since the 60s and it had the original giant cowboy hat neon sign by the road up until about 4 years ago. It was quite the sight for sure!

      Hey Freesamples funny seeing you here! Do you happen to know exactly when the West Mesa Chuck E. Cheese's replaced their 3-Stage?

    This one’s a really interesting building. You can tell it started out as an original covered wagon building, and then they just kind of boxed it in with the 80’s store design. Never saw one that was converted like this.

    As soon as I saw the thumbnail I knew this was the Arby's on Banksville Road. I grew up on 51 right near Seldom Seen and I've been to this Arby's more times than I can count. I was always fascinated by the "outside" restrooms.

  • @Ellex424

    Somehow I knew just from the thumbnail that this was Banksville Road. I had no idea this one had closed - although I live nearby, it's not the closest one to me. I'm not surprised it's closed: Banksville isn't exactly a convenient location as you need to be on the same side of the road to get into most of the businesses along it.
    Thanks for making this video - I'm always glad to see my hometown!
    FYI, Fiore's Pizza in indeed on West Liberty Ave, which is also Route 19, and they have a second location in McMurray, which is also on Route 19 a bit farther south. And if you take just about any of the streets that go up from Banksville on the opposite side from this Arby's, you'll get to Route 19.

    I love how the restroom is outside, noticing the Restrooms sign outside the restaurant at 2:40. EDIT: Oh wow! 6:17 restroom doors from the main area!? I wonder if the rest rooms have connection all the way through, or if they are totally separate restrooms on either side of the building. Very interesting!

    Been around that area my whole life and always passed by it. That upstairs of the auto body shop next to it was a mosque we used to use for a few years and we’d often drive thru Arby’s cuz it when it was busy there. Ngl I audibly screamed when I saw it was closed 😭 . Rip to that Arby’s location

  • @johnkemas7344

    I was always a big fan of Roy Rodgers Roast Beef sandwiches when they were in Pittsburgh. (owned by Papan's Restaurants chains) They were real roast beef thin shaved off a fresh cooked roast beef on good rolls! Much better than reprocessed roast beef pressed into a can like Arbey' uses. Last one was up on the PA Turnpike toward the west border of PA near Rt 60.

    Wallieb26 if you come to the Arbys in Johnstown pa you will like it because it still has the giant cowboy hat sign, like the one in Erie pa you did that closed because it moved :). Because I just went to it the other day it’s a few mins down the road from me and as of today it still has the old sign. it once had the same building like this but they torn it down to a 90s style but kept the old cowboy hat sign which is cool.

  • @703am

  • @davohl1
    @davohl1 Год назад

    When I was a little kid in the early 1970s, this was the ONLY fast food restaurant for miles around. My father would bring me there regularly for roast beef sandwiches after Saturday morning haircuts. It had the gigantic neon version of the big hat sign that proclaimed "Arby's Roast Beef Sandwich Is Delicious". That iconic sign hung around long after most other Arby's had switched the the smaller orange and brown version.
    A few weeks ago I had just been telling my kids that this Arby's had outlasted Burger Kings, McDonalds, and many other fast food joints in the neighborhood. And then, a couple of days later, Arby's was gone. I don't eat fast food anymore, but I'm going to miss it for the memories.

    That's an old Arby's, that was the look my location used for many years until they remodeled in the 2000's and made it look more modern with tall windows and a more upscale design that was used until they tore the place down. It's a shame, there was always good food coming out of there. Now the Arby's they have replaced it with now sucks.

    Pretty small for an Arby's, even such an old store design. Personally, I find them superior to RAX, and in my home town, they took over when RAX closed. For the record, RAX was originally a Clancy's restaurant site long before McDonald's ever opened up in my town.
