Conway, Arkansas. We wanted to provide a level of service that made people feel valued and respected, serving beef that
we ground ourselves to ensure the highest possible quality.
“ Fifteen years later and we’ ve grown to nine – soon to be ten – locations across Arkansas, but nothing about our quality standards has changed. We still grind premium beef fresh daily, hand cut our potatoes, and we still believe that a genuine smile matters just as much as the food we serve. Our history will always be rooted in my dad’ s craft and work ethic, while our future is built on serving the people and the communities we love, one burger at a
time. We believe in the power of serving with humility, and we aspire to prove that there is a different way to run a business; one that results in profit but keeps its focus firmly on people and purpose.”

Freshness and quality
Beef is at the heart of David’ s Burgers’ menu, and options are purposely kept simple to ensure staff can perfect every item.“ Our burgers are cooked to order, and our fries are hand-cut from Idaho potatoes,” Alan says.“ Our most popular items have been on the menu since day one, and we focus on delivering consistency. Customers can trust that whenever they walk into one of our stores, they are going to get the food they know and love.”
With the company’ s network of restaurants continually growing, we’ re keen to understand the strategy behind such expansion.“ Each location is built on the same idea to treat people right and serve food we are proud of,” Alan states.“ Freshness and quality aren’ t just buzzwords for us, but rather the standard we work to protect every single day. However, what really sets our restaurants apart is our culture. We genuinely care about our guests from the moment they walk in. Crew members treat guests like friends, and we’ ve worked hard to ensure guests receive the same experience regardless of which location they choose. Along with delicious food, our friendly service is what keeps our customers returning time and time again.
“ We’ re currently building an additional location, a 3600-square-foot site with a drive-thru, which will be situated within an 18,000-square-foot retail center, with the extra space leased to other businesses to help keep our occupancy costs low. Real estate development is a strength of the business, as we own the majority of our restaurants and have leveraged our local popularity to build retail strips where we can diversify our income by leasing the remaining space. Owning the real estate also enables us to design the shopping center around the needs of the restaurant.”
