Iconic fast-food burger chain announces late-night hours expansion
Most can't deny that a greasy burger, salty fries, and bubbly Coke always taste better late at night. When you stay up all night binge-watching an entire Netflix series and fast-food cravings start to get loud, driving to the nearest location is the only way to satisfy them. This is a regular event for many college students and night owls. However, all good things come to an end, and it's not because some decided to grow up and become more health-conscious. Don't miss the move: Subscribe to TheStreet's free daily newsletter Unfortunately, Covid entered the picture, taking away nearly all options for late-night munchies by forcing food chains to reduce their hours of operation.

IHOP (DIN) , Denny's (DENN) , Jack in the Box (JACK) , and Whataburger are returning to their old 24/7 routines, while others continue to expand their hours, like McDonald's (MCD) , which recently extended its hours to stay open until midnight or later at many locations nationwide.
