Kosher Restaurant - Kosher Franchises

Kosher Franchises

While most kosher restaurants are small businesses operating only a single location, some operate multiple locations within a city (often in New York City).

Some corporate restaurants and fast food chains operate kosher locations in places with Jewish populations. In Israel, kosher KFC, McDonald's, and Sbarro franchises can be found. In the United States, there are many kosher Dunkin' Donuts, Krispy Kreme and Subway locations. Most of the kosher Subways have failed. Some of these locations must modify their typical menus in order to comply with Jewish dietary laws.

Baskin-Robbins ice cream is kosher at all locations, certified by the Vaad Hakashrut of Massachusetts. A few of the flavors served at Baskin-Robbins are not kosher, and a sign found at all locations that certifies the products as kosher indicates which flavors are not.

Rita's Water Ice operates some locations under rabbinical supervision. Some of these locations can be found in the U.S. states of Maryland, New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania.
