eegee's

eegee's is the everyday celebration destination for eats, treats, and fun. We create vibrant, shareable experiences that make normal days special and special days extraordinary for every guest. Through our warm service and cold eegees, we've delivered on that promise for over 50 years. We're committed to preserving our culture as we turn our focus to the next 50 years and beyond—we will always be easygoing, warm, and offbeat. Our History: What began as a food truck serving frozen lemonade in 1971 has evolved into the best fast food company in Arizona. While a lot has changed since our early days, what hasn't changed is our commitment to serving our original bread, frozen eegees, hot crinkle-cut fries, and crave-able signature ranch for a one-of-a-kind experience that has a way of always feeling like home. Our Community Focus: At eegee’s, we believe it’s not enough to simply be in the community, we love being an active part of it. Throughout the years we have partnered with and donated to shelters, schools, hospitals and more. In fact, since 1988, we have gifted more than $3 million to some incredible local causes via our coupon book sales. Every year, we also support local artists, recycling initiatives, and employee perks (like a free meal per shift … yummmm) at our restaurants. Our Vision: We are driven to grow and to be successful, all while remaining committed to staying true to the integrity that eegee’s has been built on for the last 50 years. It's our goal to sit at the heart of every community where we have a restaurant. This vision and dedication to stay true to our roots has made us a household name in Arizona and will allow us to become a household name nationally.
