Applebee's was founded by Bill and T. J. Palmer in July 1980. Their vision was to create a restaurant that had a neighborhood pub feel to it and could offer friendly service along with quality fare at a lower price than most of their competition. The Palmers opened their first restaurant, T.J. Applebee’s® Rx for Edibles & Elixirs®, in Decatur, GA. In 1983, the Palmers sold the Applebee's concept to W.R. Grace and Company. In 1986, the restaurant was renamed to Applebee’s Neighborhood Grill + Bar. In 1988, Kansas City franchisees Abe Gustin and John Hamra purchased the rights to the Applebee's concept from W. R. Grace. The restaurant chain began trading publicly in November 1991. In 2007, IHOP Corp. announced that it agreed to buy Applebee's International for about $2.1 billion. Today, Applebee's is one of the largest sit-down restaurant chains in the United States..

As of December 31, 2022, Applebee's had 1,678 restaurants worldwide. This includes 1,569 franchised restaurants in the U.S and 109 restaurants in international markets.
