The Good Times Restaurants group saw mixed sales results in the first fiscal quarter.

The company said its Bad Daddy’s Burger Bar business is implementing strategies to rebound after same-store sales fell 6.2 per cent. Those initiatives include the return of the chef-created salmon and turkey Non-Burger Burger to its menu, along with the launch of system-wide drink specials and a late-night happy hour starting January 17. A new cocktail lineup will be launched in February.

In contrast, the Good Times Burgers & Frozen Custard’s business saw sales increase 4.1 per cent during the three months that ended December 26.

“Our Good Times brand has continued to deliver positive same-store sales despite a challenging operating environment, reflecting the strong company-owned restaurant operations and the impact of our restaurant refresh program,” said Good Times Restaurants president and CEO Ryan Zink.

“My confidence in both brands remains positive, reinforced by five Bad Daddy’s in three different states, achieving new single-store weekly sales records, and our Madison, Alabama restaurant posting its second highest sales week since opening, during the first week of the second fiscal quarter.”
