Krystal is a fast-food chain serving Southern-style burgers and sandwiches since its establishment in 1932. The menu primarily features Krystal burgers, square-shaped and compact, often compared to sliders. These small burgers are available with various toppings, including cheese, bacon, and chili. Krystal also serves other items such as fries, onion rings, and drinks.
The restaurant's food is known for its affordability and portion size. A standard menu item is the "4 for $4 Meal," which includes a burger, fries, drink, and side of hashbrowns or onion rings. They offer breakfast items during morning hours, including biscuits with gravy, grits, and egg sandwiches.
Krystal's signature square-shaped burgers have been a staple on their menu since the beginning. The compact size allows customers to try multiple flavors in one sitting without committing to larger portions. This concept has contributed to Krystal's widespread appeal across its locations.
