Press release:
After almost twenty years serving its famous charbroiled burgers and thick hand-scooped milkshakes in Historic Downtown, Foster’s has undergone a major makeover. The remodeled restaurant now features an expanded kitchen, updated décor, renovated bathrooms and a new bar.
Company President Mike Cerny knew the $160,000 upgrade was needed to improve the dining experience and attract more customers, a strategy that worked well for one of his other locations which has experienced a 20 percent increase in sales after renovation.
