Some restaurants have to make up cool-sounding names and stories to impress you. Why? Because they didn’t have George Webb.
George was the real deal. He opened his very first “hamburger parlor” in 1948  in Milwaukee on the corner of Ogden and Van Buren Streets. George, his wife Evelyn and their three sons – Jim, Tom and Bob – all worked in the restaurant. His vision was simple: be a friend in the neighborhood by serving good food at fair prices 24 hours a day.
And then there are the famous double clocks.
When a city ordinance prohibited establishments from being open 24 hours a day, George came up with the perfect workaround. He announced “George Webb Restaurants are open 23 hours, 59 minutes and 59 seconds, seven days a week and on Sundays!” George hung two clocks – set one minute apart – in the restaurants to demonstrate that they were, indeed, closed and reopened every day in exact compliance with the law. To this day each George Webb restaurant has two clocks hanging side-by-side in honor of George’s declaration.
