CNN
The pandemic was difficult for casual dining brands like Applebee's, which saw sales plummet when it closed its dining rooms last year. But now, Applebee's is doing better than it has in years.
One reason? Attention from the song "Fancy Like" by Walker Hayes. "This song lyrically is all about date night at Applebee's, and it's gone viral in a big way on social media — TikTok, Instagram and YouTube — providing great buzz for the Applebee's brand," Applebee's president John Cywinski said during an analyst call Thursday.More Related News
