Restaurant Sales
----------------
Consolidated restaurant sales increased 3.8% or $3,162,000 for the
quarter compared to the quarter ended July 11, 1999.  The Company
experienced an overall same store sales increase of 2.4% over the prior
year quarter.  This increase is primarily due to the Easter holiday
falling in the third quarter of fiscal 2000 versus the second quarter
of 1999.  The Company's stores experience a significant increase in
volume over this holiday weekend.

The following table sets forth the percent change over the prior year
quarter by concept for comparable store sales and comparable store
guest counts, as well as quarterly store operating margin:

</TABLE>
During the third quarter of fiscal 2000, the Bakers Square concept
captured an additional $976,000 or 1.9% in sales compared to the prior
year quarter.  Same store sales increased 2.5%, while same store guest
counts decreased slightly.

Overall, Village Inn sales increased by 6.7% or $2,186,000. This is a
result of the Company operating four additional Village Inn restaurants
during the third quarter of 2000, compared to the third quarter of 1999
(subsequent to July 11, 1999, six new restaurants were opened, one
Company-operated restaurant was converted to a franchise operation, two
restaurants were closed due to lease termination and one restaurant was
converted from a franchise operation to a Company-operated restaurant).
Village Inn same store sales and same store customer counts increased
over the prior year quarter 2.1% and .5%, respectively.  Of the six new
Village Inn restaurants opened since July 11, 1999, five were opened
during the current fiscal year, including one during the first quarter
and four during the second quarter of fiscal 2000.  The Company expects
to open up to three additional units during the fourth quarter.

Restaurant Operating Profit
---------------------------
Consolidated restaurant operating profit increased 5.1% or $556,000 for
the quarter compared to the quarter ended July 11, 1999.

Bakers Square restaurant operating profit increased 10.9% or $582,000
over the prior year quarter, while restaurant operating profit as a
percent of sales increased to 11.5% from 10.6% for the quarter ended
July 11, 1999.  The significant increase in operating profit was due
to a 2.5% increase in same stores sales, as well as effective operating
expense management at the store-level.

Village Inn restaurant operating profit decreased .5% or $26,000, and
restaurant operating profit as a percent of sales decreased to 15.9%
from 17.1% over the prior year quarter.  The decline was a result of
increased food costs driven by a distributor delivery price increase
and increased marketing expenses.  Food costs and marketing expenses as
a percent of sales increased by 1.2% and 1.0%, respectively.

Franchise Operations
--------------------
Net franchise income increased .9% or $6,000 between the quarter ended
July 9, 2000 and the quarter ended July 11, 1999, primarily as a result
of increased royalties.

General and Administrative Expenses
-----------------------------------
General and administrative expenses for the third quarter of 2000 were
$6,148,000 compared to $6,559,000 during the third quarter of 1999.
The $411,000 or 6.3% decrease is attributable to various general and
administrative expense reductions, including a reduction of Year 2000
related expenditures. General and administrative expense as a percent
of restaurant sales declined favorably to 7.1% from 7.9% in the prior
year quarter.

Other Income
------------
Other income for the quarter ended July 9, 2000 decreased $73,000 from
the quarter ended July 9, 1999.

Interest Expense
----------------
Interest expense decreased 20% or $46,000 between the quarter ended
July 9, 2000 and the quarter ended July 11, 1999.  The decrease was
primarily due to twelve capital leases being paid in full during 1999
and capitalization of $13,000 of interest expense under the
requirements of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS")
No. 34, "Capitalization of Interest Cost", offset by interest incurred
on line of credit draws.  The Company maintained an average draw on the
line of credit for the quarter ended July 9, 2000 of $959,000 compared
to $0 for the prior year quarter.

Effective Tax Rate
------------------
The Company's effective tax rate for the quarter ended July 9, 2000 and
the quarter ended July 11, 1999 was 36.5%.  A significant portion of
the provision for income taxes represents the non-cash utilization of
deferred tax assets established for remaining net operating loss
carryforwards.  Taxes currently payable continue to be limited to
Federal alternative minimum taxes and state income taxes.


 Thirty-six Weeks Ended July 9, 2000 Compared to the Thirty-six Weeks
                          Ended July 11, 1999

Restaurant Sales
----------------
Consolidated restaurant sales increased 3.9% or $9,653,000 for the
thirty-six weeks ended July 9, 2000 compared to the thirty-six weeks
ended July 11, 1999.  The Company experienced an overall same store
sales increase of 2.0% over the prior year period.

The following table sets forth the percent change over the prior year
by concept for comparable store sales and comparable store guest
counts, as well as year to date store operating margin:

</TABLE>
Bakers Square restaurant sales increased $3,303,000 or 2.2% as a result
of a 2.4% increase in same store sales for the thirty-six weeks ended
July 9, 2000 compared to the thirty-six weeks ended July 11, 1999.  The
Company was successful in capturing an additional $1,975,000 in sales
during the key holiday pie season in the first quarter of 2000 compared
to the first quarter of 1999. The year to date increase was also driven
by a 1.0% increase in same store guest counts.

During the thirty-six weeks ended July 9, 2000 compared to the thirty-
six weeks ended July 11, 1999, Village Inn sales increased by 6.5% or
$6,350,000 due to the Company operating four additional Village Inn
restaurants in the current period (subsequent to July 11, 1999, six new
restaurants were opened, one Company-operated restaurant was converted to
a franchise operation, two restaurants were closed due to lease
termination and one restaurant was converted from a franchise operation
to a Company-operated restaurant).  Village Inn same store sales increased
1.4%, while same store customer counts decreased 1.2% over the prior
year period.  The decrease in same store customer counts is partially
attributable to the initial impact of opening new stores in established
market areas.  Of the six new Village Inn restaurants opened since July
11, 1999, five were opened during the current fiscal year, including
one during the first quarter and four during the second quarter of
fiscal 2000.  The Company expects to open up to three additional units
during the fourth quarter.

Restaurant Operating Profit
---------------------------
Consolidated restaurant operating profit increased 10.9% or $3,389,000
for the thirty-six weeks ended July 9, 2000 compared to the thirty-six
weeks ended July 11, 1999.

Bakers Square restaurant operating profit for the thirty-six weeks
ended July 9, 2000 increased 17.4% or $2,541,000 over the thirty-six
weeks ended July 11, 1999, while restaurant operating profit as a
percent of sales increased to 11.2% from 9.7%.  The significant
improvement of Bakers Square restaurant operating profit was driven by
a 2.4% increase in same stores sales, improved execution during the
first quarter's key holiday pie season and effective food cost and
other operating expense management at the store-level.

Village Inn restaurant operating profit for the thirty-six weeks ended
July 9, 2000 increased 5.1% or $848,000 due primarily to the Company
operating four additional restaurants in fiscal 2000.  Restaurant
operating profit as a percent of sales decreased slightly to 16.8% from
17.0% for the thirty-six weeks ended July 9, 2000 versus the thirty-six
weeks ended July 11, 1999 primarily as a result of increased marketing
expenses.  Marketing expenses as a percent of sales increased to 2.4%
compared to 1.5% in the prior year.

Franchise Operations
--------------------
Net franchise income increased 2.9% or $63,000 between the thirty-six
weeks ended July 9, 2000 and the thirty-six weeks ended July 11, 1999
primarily as a result of increased royalties.


General and Administrative Expenses
-----------------------------------
General and administrative expenses for the thirty-six weeks ended July
9, 2000 were $19,047,000 compared to $19,516,000 during the thirty-six
weeks ended July 11, 1999.  The $469,000 or 2.4% decrease is partially
attributable to a reduction of Year 2000 related expenditures.  Overall,
general and administrative expenses decreased favorably as a percent of
restaurant sales to 7.4% for the thirty-six weeks ended July 9, 2000
compared to 7.9% for the same period in fiscal 1999.

Other Income
------------
Other income for the thirty-six weeks ended July 9, 2000 increased
$128,000 or 36.9% from the prior year period, due primarily to interest
earned on the $28,700,000 in net proceeds received from the sale
leaseback transaction completed on October 28, 1999.  The proceeds were
used to fund the tender offer for 2,000,000 shares at $19.00 per share
on December 29, 1999.

Interest Expense
----------------
Interest expense declined 12.2% or $86,000 between the thirty-six weeks
ended July 9, 2000 and the thirty-six weeks ended July 11, 1999.  The
decrease was primarily due to twelve capital leases being paid in full
during 1999 and $50,000 of interest expense capitalized under the
requirements of SFAS No. 34, offset by interest incurred on line of
credit draws.  The Company maintained an average draw on the line of
credit for the thirty-six weeks ended July 9, 2000 of $2,602,000
compared to $0 for the prior year.

Effective Tax Rate
------------------
The Company's effective tax rate for the thirty-six weeks ended July 9,
2000 and the thirty-six weeks ended July 11, 1999 was 36.5%.  A
significant portion of the provision for income taxes represents the
non-cash utilization of deferred tax assets established for remaining
net operating loss carryforwards.  Taxes currently payable continue to
be limited to Federal alternative minimum taxes and state income taxes.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
-------------------------------
Net cash provided by operating activities for the thirty-six weeks
ended July 9, 2000 was $29,582,000 compared with $25,940,000 for the
thirty-six weeks ended July 11, 1999.  The $3,642,000 increase was
primarily due to a $2,626,000 or 30.9% increase in net income, as well
as effective working capital management.

The Company's investing activities for the thirty-six weeks ended July
9, 2000 utilized $15,375,000 compared with $19,689,000 for the thirty-
six weeks ended July 11, 1999.  The $4,314,000 decrease was primarily
attributable to a $3,165,000 reduction in capital expenditures.
Management expects to invest approximately $29,600,000 during fiscal
2000 in developing up to eight to ten Company-operated locations
(including up to five Bakers Square locations in the Chicago area),
completing several remodel projects on existing restaurants, as well as
enhancing production capabilities at VICOM.  During the thirty-six
weeks ending July 9, 2000, five new Village Inn restaurants were opened
(one in Colorado, two in Arizona, one in Nebraska and one in Iowa) and
the Chaska facility was purchased as previously noted.

The Company's financing activities for the thirty-six weeks ended July
9, 2000 utilized $41,297,000 compared with $4,575,000 for the thirty-
six weeks ended July 11, 1999.  The $36,722,000 increase was as a
result of the tender offer commenced on November 23, 1999 to purchase
up to 2,000,000 shares of the outstanding common stock at $19.00 per
share.  The tender offer concluded on December 22, 1999, and the Company
funded the transaction on December 29, 1999 whereby 2,000,000 shares
were purchased.  The transaction was funded using the $28,700,000 in
net proceeds received from the sale leaseback transaction completed on
October 28, 1999, as well as a $4,000,000 draw on the Company's credit
facility.  An additional 115,000 shares were repurchased subsequent to
the tender offer under the Company's share repurchase plan.  As of July
9, 2000, 338,375 common shares remained available for purchase under
the Board of Directors authorizations.  Future purchases under the
authorizations may be made from time to time in the open market or
through privately negotiated transactions and will be dependent upon
various business and financial considerations.

On December 19, 1997, the Company executed an amended and restated
credit agreement, which provides for an available credit limit of $40,000,000
in the aggregate with a sublimit of $10,000,000 on letters of credit.
The bank credit facility was amended effective April 14, 2000 to extend
the maturity date to February 28, 2003, as well as amend certain fee
calculations and debt covenants.  As of July 9, 2000, the Company had
no outstanding debt under the Company's bank credit facility and
$700,000 in letters of credit issued in connection with its insurance
programs.

Cash and cash equivalents at July 9, 2000 equaled $6,097,000.  The
Company believes anticipated cash flow from operations, as well as the
availability of funds under the $40,000,000 line of credit, and other
financing sources will provide sufficient capital to meet current
foreseeable cash needs, including working capital and capital
expenditures.

At July 9, 2000, the Company had twenty-eight properties which it was
seeking to dispose of, six of these were idle and twenty-two were
subleased.  The Company owns five of the properties in fee and is the
prime lessee on twenty-three leases (four of the fee properties are
idle).  The Company estimates potential proceeds of $938,000 on the
disposal of the fee properties.  The two remaining idle properties will
be disposed of through lease terminations within a year.  At July 9,
2000, loss reserves previously established for the disposal of these
properties had a remaining balance of $3,283,000, including $1,566,000
to reduce the properties to realizable value and $1,717,000 to provide
for carrying costs and sublease losses. During the thirty-six weeks
ended July 9, 2000, closure and carrying costs of $137,000 were charged
against the liability.  At present, the Company anticipates the
reserves will be adequate to cover the future losses and operating
costs for these properties.

During the first quarter of 2000, the Company sold its Denver bakery
facility yielding cash proceeds of $690,000.  A resulting loss of
$614,000 was applied against the property disposal reserve previously
established for this purpose.

The Company guaranteed certain leases for twenty-five restaurant
properties sold in 1986 and sixteen restaurant leases of certain
franchisees.  Minimum future rental payments remaining under these
leases were $5,300,000 as of October 31, 1999. These guarantees are
included in the definition of financial instruments with off-balance-
sheet risk of accounting loss.  The Company has no reason to believe
that any material liability exists and believes it is impracticable to
estimate the fair value of these financial guarantees (e.g., amounts
the Company could pay to remove the guarantees).

Management Outlook
------------------
The Board of Directors appointed an independent committee of Directors
to evaluate various strategic alternatives to enhance shareholder
value.  The independent committee has retained Salomon Smith Barney as
its financial advisor to assist in the evaluation.

Forward-Looking Statements
--------------------------
Certain matters discussed in this report are "forward-looking
statements" intended to qualify for the safe harbors from liability
established by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
These forward-looking statements can generally be identified as such
because the context of the statement will include words such as the
Company "believes," "anticipates," "expects" or words of similar
import.  Similarly, statements that describe the Company's future
plans, objectives or goals are also forward-looking statements.  Such
forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties which
could cause actual results to differ materially from those currently
anticipated.  Shareholders, potential investors and other readers are
urged to consider these factors carefully in evaluating the forward-
looking statements and are cautioned not to place undue reliance on
such forward-looking statements.  The forward-looking statements made
herein are only made as of the date of this report and the Company
undertakes no obligation to publicly update such forward-looking
statements to reflect subsequent events or circumstances.

New Accounting Pronouncements
-----------------------------
In June 1999, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No.
137 which delayed the effective date of SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities", until fiscal quarters
of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000.  SFAS 133 requires all
derivatives to be recognized as assets or liabilities on the balance
sheet and measured at fair value.  Changes in the fair value of
derivatives should be recognized in either net income or other
comprehensive income, depending on the designated purpose of the
derivative.  At present the Company is investigating the effect the
adoption of this statement will have on the Company's results of
operations, financial position and cash flows, if any.

In March 2000, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Interpretation No. 44 (FIN 44), "Accounting for Certain Transactions
involving Stock Compensation - an interpretation of APB Opinion No.
25," with an effective date of July 1, 2000.  The interpretation
clarifies the application of Opinion 25 for certain issues, including
the definition of employee for purposes of applying Opinion 25, the
criteria for determining whether a plan qualifies as a noncompensatory
plan, the accounting consequence of various modifications to the terms
of a previously fixed stock option or award and the accounting for an
exchange of stock compensation awards in a business combination, among
others.  The application of FIN 44 is not expected to have a material
effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
