Despite New York State never having a Hot ‘n Now location, New Yorkers are excited about the return of the fast-food chain, known for its affordable burgers and quick service.

The first location opened up in 1984 in Kalamazoo, Michigan. The drive-thru burger concept exploded in popularity in the late 1980s and early 1990s.
