Druther's is a restaurant, formerly a chain of
fast food restaurants that began as
Burger Queen restaurants based in
Louisville, Kentucky from 1963 until 1981. The name was a play on the word , and the mascot was a giant female
bee named Queenie Bee. In 1981, Burger Queen changed to Druther's restaurants, although the changes were mostly cosmetic. One reason given for the name change was to eliminate the perception that they served "just burgers", when they also had
fried chicken and a serve-yourself
salad bar. Druther's featured a character named "Andy Dandytale" on its kids meal items (and a live-action version in early TV advertising). The chain's slogan was "I'd Ruther Go to Druther's."
