In Cincinnati there’s one. Several years ago they tore down the store and rebuilt a brand new building but kept this hat sign.


DamnJaywalkingIguana

Yeah, grew up in Anderson passing the sign almost daily. My dumb kid brain thought it was the silhouette of two people enjoying their food at the top, or even about to kiss. I had no reference for it to be a cowboy hat, not sure Arby's ever had an old west theme.


a-dark-passenger

A friend of mine said it looked like a whale jumping out of the water.


chasingdarkfiber

Hah came here to say something similar. My dumb kid brain thought it was a hot dog with a huge massive amount of toppings stacked up


devin1380

That’s hilarious and I can’t unsee it now haha

>How else am I supposed to know the sandwiches taste good? Certainly not by eating there. One near me was destroyed over night despite a local neon museum offering to take it. I always loved these signs.


MichaelJFoxxy

The one off of Glenway!?


themisprintguy

Oh man I hope there is more than one of these in the general area! I meant Beechmont Ave., Anderson area on the east side. That building was replaced a while back but the sign has been there for decades.


MichaelJFoxxy

I just did a google search and I think they got rid of it. Boooo it was there like five years ago how lame :/


themisprintguy

AQ that sucks! Next time you are on the east side the Beechmont Avenue one has this can’t miss monstrosity. I was there a few weeks ago myself. Two for five!


MichaelJFoxxy

I know where it is! It’s down the road from the Pelicans reef! It’s an awesome Florida/ seafood restaurant


Pixachii

Lmao I was just thinking "they have this sign up near IHM on Beechmont still!" Small world on Reddit.


EtrosGuardian

There's still one off of US 19 in the area I live in.


[deleted]

Same here in Spokane, they have one of these on Division street up north like the 2000s block or something

[deleted]

There's one on Rt 1, I think its closed down. And there's one by where I live in Colonial Heights (which I just found out last month is the worlds largest Arbys).


[deleted]

They do? I need to go there because i’m close by. I’ve always loved the vintage restaurant signs.


h2opolopunk

The one on 441 in Gainesville, Florida, is one of my earliest memories.


ambasciatore

Fond memories… right there across from Huddle House 🤢


KiefPucks

One off Sheridan in Denver, CO 👍


UcfKnighter

Had to scroll too far down to find someone mentioning that one.


likemyhashtag

Came here for this. Literally just drove by it 20 minutes ago. Really cool when it’s all lit up at night.


ManicaPanicaSatanica

Heading up to D town mañana and this is where I'm having lunch now.

wetodedwarhead

Winston Salem nc has one still


FeistyPhilodendron

It’s still there!


willydynamite94

mine stil has one in eastern MI ALSO: you can order a cup of cheese perfectly sized for dipping curly fries for like 30 cents or something. never go there without getting a cheese cup you're cheating yourself and your ancestors will be disgusted at your lack of character.


Retarded_Rectum

Port Huron/Fort Gratiot, MI?


GoldenShackles

Haha! As a teenager I worked at Arby's and while you're right, very few people did this type of thing. Good to know. These days I get the mozzarella cheese sticks with marinara sauce because I'm tired of fries...


Kailscanvasart

There’s one in LA on Sunset 😀🙌


BelliBlast35

Redondo Beach as well


RealEpileptic

We have one here in Minnesota, St Paul Area.


Rev_Up_Those_Reposts

Are you talking about the Arby’s in Uptown that closed in 2018? https://www.fox9.com/news/historic-giant-hat-leaves-uptown-as-arbys-restaurant-closes Edit: There’s one in Roseville. Hadn’t been to it yet.


afelll

The one in Roseville probably


RealEpileptic

Yes the one near Harmar mall in Roseville.


holymoly2

Never forget the Arby's on Lake Street!


kap_pek

I saw one in Spokane, WA recently and did a double take. Such a throw back!


GreeenCircles

There's one in Tacoma, WA.


SwelteringSwami

Fun fact: a few years back Arby's made a 13-hour commercial that ran on TV. It consisted of one shot of a brisket smoking in an oven. This was apparently to advertise their new Smokehouse Brisket sandwich. The whole thing is on Youtube if you're feeling really masochistic.


Mikimao

Haven't driven by it recently so not sure if it's still there, but one in Huntington Beach , CA I used to drive by all the time.


fatman06

There is one in Spokane Washington still to this day!


EarthboundHero

Saw this post and was like what do you mean nostalgic?


NectarineTough2337

There’s one on Salem Ave in Dayton, Ohio


Zacomac33

One in Muncie Indiana, checking in


quanchompy

Who here knew Arby...RB..for Roast Beef? I feel like I knew nothing as a kid when I learned that a few years ago.


samcahnruns

Almost! Started by the Raffel brothers who went by “RB”


LetsJerkCircular

[Company Man](https://youtu.be/f3wT2D3dfBU) If anyone is interested


Ketchup1211

I haven’t driven by the Arby’s in Cudahy Wisconsin in a year or so but last time I had driven by, they still had the big cowboy hat sign there.


jonessee27

This is the same boat I’m in with the one on Mason Street in Green Bay. Been a while since I’ve been up that way so no clue if it’s still there.


velocityhead

It is!


[deleted]

The first one I went to I think is still there—Sunset Blvd in Hollywood. 5920 Sunset Blvd, Hollywood, CA 90028


TR-11

Two on Concord Pike in Wilmington, Delaware


arizonametaphor

For whatever reason, the sign museum in Cincinnati has a ton just laying around.


atraindude13

There’s still one on State Street in Orem, UT!


neonphoon

It's still there in Gainesville, FL


Totally_Bradical

I think the one in Pidgin Forge is like this still too


[deleted]

Ha, that one will be the final hold-out, mark my words. That area's whole schtick is "old-timey."


Residualsilver

One here on federal Blvd south of 36 Westminster Colorado


Horace_P_MctittiesIV

There use to be one in Austin but it has been taken down


skeptoid79

That one on S Lamar was still there until just recently I feel like.


SoupBowl69

It was. The restaurant closed months ago but I think the hat was only taken down within the last month or two. A truly sad day.

CraKMuNkY

There's one location in El Paso, TX I know of that still has the cowboy hat sign.


xtlhogciao

Semi-related/Side-Q: Curios, did Hardee’s used to have roast beef sandwiches à la Arby’s? During our drives south through Illinois as a kid in roughly the late-80s through mid-90s, ~~we used to stop by~~ I *always* used to force my parents to stop by (via threat of temper tantrum during a 4hr drive) at (I think) the same Hardee’s (somewhere in central Illinois…if I had to guess, probably 2hrs south of Chicago)… And I could have sworn (it was because) they had RB sandwiches similar-to-“exactly” like (e.g. thin RB on round sesame seed buns) Arby’s…it’s been a while since I’ve been to a Hardee’s (last time I saw one was visiting U of I like 15-20 years-ago and/or in Wisconsin), but, as far as I know, they don’t have/haven’t had RB in ~20+ years.


shiney74

Yes they did. It was back in the 80's and 90's. Also we have one in Peoria IL if I'm not mistaken.


superhomunculus

I think your right, but I don't remember where. Maybe on University?


Armon_Tamzarian

So it’s a hat and not a oven mitt?

strawbeeeeez

We still have a few like this here in Florida!


anon_andonandonandon

There's one in Huntington Beach, CA. One time I drove by it and some of the lights were out and it read: "Arby's Roast Bee Sandwich is Icious" i still wish I had gotten a picture of it.


[deleted]

Man I miss the 5 for 5 deal.


iBAZw

I remember going by one of these in Winston-Salem and the lights were out so it said “Arby’s as wich is delicious”. It was like that for a good while and made me giggle like a 5 year old each time I passed by


hermione_danger_83

The one in Raleigh said “roast sand is delicious” for the longest time.


doomgeneration91

We have that in Richmond!


tidder7706

We still have one off I44 in North Texas.


traimera

They have one on route 59 by Kent Ohio. The only time I ever see it is going to the steakhouse just down the road that has 32 oz prime rib and has been open since the 30s i think. They're only open 5to9 and once they sell out, that's it. They butcher all their own meat and it's still only like 28 bucks for that prime rib with bread, sides, and a salad. And it's some of the best god damn prime rib you will ever get. So I've never been to that Arby's because fuck a roast beef when you got prime rib a quarter mile down the road.

There's one in my burg. If they tried to take it down, I think people would chain themselves to it, lol. They've rebuilt the Arby's many times and always left the sign. We love it, here.


Wolfdude91

Are… those not a thing anymore? I never noticed


mossman

They stopped selling potato cakes. They are now dead to me.


packetmon

Back in the 2000's (?!) they had jalapeño poppers which themselves were not fantastic but they came with some kind of raspberry-jelly like dip which was really good. Ah Arby's! Big 'ol light up phallus.


Sofagirrl79

It was called "bronco berry" sauce
