If you consider Plan B Burger Bar in West Hartford, Glastonbury or Simsbury to
be your local neighborhood hangout, you might be surprised to hear that the
chain has been named one of the fastest-growing companies in the United States.
Inc. Magazine\'s 500|5000 List takes a look at 5,000 of the country's
privately-held companies, ranked by percentage of growth. At number 565, Plan B
just narrowly missed the top-tier 500 companies.
According to the list, Plan B had a 541 percent growth rate over the past three
years, with revenue of $5.5 million.
The upscale burger bar and gastropub is known for its freshly-ground beef
burgers and a selection of fun comfort foods like mini chili dogs, meatballs,
pulled pork and three-cheese fondue. Drinkers enjoy the pub's exceptional
variety of craft beers and bourbons.
Plan B plans future expansion into Atlanta, Boston, Chicago and Georgetown,
according to its website. Its owners also own and operate The Half Door and
Tisane Euro-Asian Cafe, both in Hartford.
