History

Jeff Newman, Richard Danker and Robert Garner founded Glory Days Grill. These three restaurant veterans came up with the idea for a neighborhood restaurant that also emphasized the positive attributes of sports. The first one opened in Burke, Virginia on April 16, 1996.

Their goal was to have their neighborhood gathering place quickly evolve into a casual dining, family-oriented restaurant. Countless hours were spent trying out a multitude of food offering to ensure that nothing would go on the menu that wasn't an "A" item. In addition, the menu features classic American fare that can typically be found only in select cities across America, including "Beef on Weck" from upstate New York, and our Philly Cheese Steak and Chicken Cheese Steak sandwiches.

The name "Glory Days Grill" originated from the concept of the "glory days" or "good 'ole days" of sports and famous moments in sports history. This is reflected in the sports-themed memorabilia on our walls. We strive to make every day a "glory day" for our guests by inviting them to enjoy "great food and good sports" celebrations and wonderful times at our restaurant today that they will come to remember as their "glory days" in the future.

To attract families with children, sporting groups and the local community at large, Glory Days uses unique sports memorabilia and broadcasts live sporting events, classic sports moments, news and entertainment on its 25 televisions.
