Big Town Hero
Big Town Hero got its start in Corvallis, Oregon, home of Oregon State University in 1983. The original name was Campus Hero, but was later changed when new restaurants were developed in smaller cities without a college campus. Big Town Hero uses the HERO name to portray the fact that its sandwiches are constructed on bread handcrafted daily in their in-store bakeries with fresh, innovative ingredients and served in a cafe style setting by franchise owners who take pride in their businesses and have developed personal relationships with the customers.
