FELONY FRANKS
Ask Dino about billiards.
Felony Franks "Home of the Misdemeanor Weiner," & " Food so good its criminal!" Deno Andrews is president of Felony Franks Restaurant Group Inc., said his restaurant hires ex-offenders. "Ex-offenders were sentenced and served time and paid their dues, but they are also served with an employment life sentence, and that's just not fair," Andrews said.
The idea for Felony Franks started in 1995 when he and his father, Jim Andrews, owner of the original Felony Franks, ran a restaurant supply company on Randolph Street in Chicago.
"Over the years, we hired many ex-offenders in that business, and then it became my family's mission," Andrews said, adding that Felony Franks aims to pay their employees more than minimum wage. The business also provides educational classes on budgeting, saving money and investing. Andrews said that despite criticisms that the name and marketing of the restaurant glorifies and exploits ex-felons, he believes it brings awareness to the company's mission. Oh yeah, they serve great Chicago style hot dogs and more!
