Mr. Fables, a DBA of Grand Rapids Innkeepers Management, Inc., was a chain of cafeteria-style family restaurants located throughout Western Michigan.
Two cousins formed the chain after taking over the Kewpee Beefburger stand from, dad and uncle, Gerald Boyles.
"[2] In 1929, Gerald Boyles opened a licensed Kewpee location on North Division Avenue in Grand Rapids.
[6] Harvard Bar and New Beginnings Family Restaurants also attempt to copy the Mr. Fables with olive burgers.
[citation needed] Gerald Boyles developed two secret recipes for the chain when it was still a Kewpee: burger dressing/sauce and onion ring batter.
