Little Chef occupied buildings of many shapes and sizes.

In their prime, Little Chef had 439 restaurants. The table below lists every Little Chef restaurant known to have opened. Given the complicated history of Little Chef it's probably true that there were some short-lived experiments, especially in the very early days and during their foray into airports, which haven't been recorded here. The challenge is finding evidence of them!

There was also a chain of restaurants called 'Little Chef' in city centres in the 1960s, which was unrelated. That includes branches in the centre of Brighton and Fleet, and possibly Bedford.

Between 1975 and 1998, every branch of Little Chef had its own unique 'unit' number. Unusually, these numbers were shown on a plaque in the building, as well as being used on branch maps, internal records and formal correspondence. As well as being an Easter egg for keen fans, these numbers helped Forte keep on top of their varied estate, as authorities would be asked to quote each unit number in correspondence.

For this reason, the unit numbers never changed, and a number wouldn't be recycled if that unit closed. Unit numbers would sometimes be assigned to branches that were never opened, and those would then be recycled. When Forte acquired a number of restaurants from another chain, those would be assigned a block of unit numbers.

Granada stopped using unit numbers in 1998, by which point the system had probably outgrown its usefulness. Several different internal identification systems were used after that.

Every Little Chef has since closed. On the list below you can tap the 'sort' icons next to each heading to re-arrange the it.
