A Special Invitation
Regas Restaurant is celebrating
91 memorable years.
Regas is the oldest restaurant in Tennessee,
founded on July 7, 1919 in Knoxville,
by Frank and George Regas,
two Greek immigrant brothers.
Since that time,
there have been many memories created at Regas.
We all have stories to tell.
No one can tell your story but you.
Your story is a unique piece of Regas history.
We are inviting you to share
your favorite remembrances of Regas with us.
_________________________________________________________
Your Story is Our Story.
The stories collected during our
closing
will be the foundation for an ongoing effort
to collect your Regas stories
so that we can preserve and share our story.
Your stories may be used in media productions
as Bill Regas is honored
at the University of Tennessee’s
Department of Retail, Hospitality, and Tourism Management
inaugural “Legend of the Industry” celebration
