Miller's Roast Beef - Franchise

Our History
Since 1972, Miller’s Roast Beef has been a dining institution in and around East Providence, Rhode Island, serving a variety of
mouthwatering sandwiches and outstanding sides to satisfied customers of all ages.

Our first restaurant OPENED NEARLY HALF A CENTURY AGO, when Henry and Ruby Miller made the decision to follow their entrepreneurial dream of owning a restaurant in their local community — and that restaurant soon became a popular destination for many customers and an icon on the local food service scene. A second location followed in Attleboro, Massachusetts, after years of consumers’ clamoring for more Miller’s Roast Beef, showing that the model can be replicated effectively. Over the years, Miller’s Roast Beef has remained FAMILY-OWNED AND OPERATED, with the founders’ direct family still at the helm of the company and involved in every aspect of the business.

Not only have multiple generations worked in all areas of the business — with family members often side-by-side in daily operations — OUR LOYAL CUSTOMERS HAVE ALSO BECOME OUR FAMILY. That’s why our guiding business philosophy has always been, “Family Serving Family®".
