Hot 'n Now is an American fast-food restaurant based in Holt, Michigan.[1] Founded in 1984, the chain once grew to more than 150 locations throughout the United States at its peak. Subsequently, under the ownership of PepsiCo, the chain filed for bankruptcy in 2004, and was then sold to STEN Corporation. As of April 2024, the company operates 1 location in Michigan. [2] The majority of the chain's locations focused entirely on drive-thru service, featuring a small-footprint building with a tall, slanted roof style.[3] Some previous locations were more traditional fast-food locations, complete with seating, and others were combined with gas stations.[4]
