White Coffee Pot

A former White Coffee Pot location

White Coffee Pot Family Inns was a privately held Baltimore, Maryland, restaurant chain and coffeeshop popular from the 1940s until the 1980s. During the 1960s and 1970s, they opened a chain of fast-food restaurants White Coffee Pot, Jr. Major competitors included national chains Gino's (which sold Kentucky Fried Chicken), Denny's and Friendly's.

The last White Coffee Pot restaurant closed in Brooklyn Park, Maryland, in 1993. The company shared ownership with the Horn and Horn Smorgasbord Cafeteria chain,[1] and some locations are now Cactus Willie's all-you-can-eat restaurants.

The White Coffee Pot restaurants were known for their bread pudding and Maryland-style fried chicken.
