How to Find Outback Restaurant Near Me 

There are many things about Outback that are hard to understand about Outback, and that’s okay. Should we start from the fact that they’re Australian-themed but they serve American cuisine, or from the fact, the restaurant is a steakhouse and not your regular US fast-food outlet?

There aren’t many Outback locations out there, mainly because it is hardly concentrated in a single country. While there are over 1,000 Outback Steakhouse locations out there, they’re spread across 23 countries, which is just crazy. Compare that to Panera Bread with 2,000 locations in only two countries and you’ll see the idea behind the rant.

But that’s just beside the fact. If you’re looking to taste any of Outback’s delicious steak meals, you must be willing to drive to the nearest location. However, how do you drive to the nearest location when you don’t even know where it’s located?

In this article, I’ll show you how to find nearby Outback Steakhouse outlets with a computer and an internet connection. If those are unavailable, you can also use the maps app on your phone, an idea that I’ll also talk about later.

About Outback Steakhouse

As hinted earlier, the Outback Steakhouse is a restaurant chain that’s based in America and serves American cuisine but is American-themed. The steakhouse is arguably the best way to access American steak at its finest, an idea supported by many fans (me included).

The restaurant chain has around 1,000 locations worldwide, with most of its outlets located within the American Continents, Asia, and Australia. The steakhouse isn’t as mainstream as top fast food outlets like Burger King and McDonald’s, and there are frequent instances of locations closing down due to poor economic conditions.

Some nutritionists have criticized Outback for featuring menu items with crazy calorie counts, with some going over 1,500 calories. With the recommended daily calorie consumption being 2,000 calories, a meal giving that insane amount of calories should legitimately be a cause for concern.

However, that hasn’t done much to deter fans from getting their favorite steaks from the restaurant. If you don’t give much thought to calorie counts, you can follow the steps below to find the nearest Outback Steakhouse location near you.

How to Find an Outback Restaurant Near Me 

If you’re trying to get an item from the Outback menu, you may want to patronize the nearest outlet to make things easy for you. With over 1,000 Outback restaurants spread across many countries, you shouldn’t be too far away from the nearest one to you.

An easy way to find an Outback outlet is by searching on Google Maps or Apple Maps. That usually brings up the nearest steakhouse, as well as the operating hours and occasionally a regular phone number. But since the information is unofficial, using the store locator on the Outback website is always a better idea.

Here are the steps required to find nearby Outback restaurants using the store locator that’s available on the official website.

Find Outback Restaurant near me using the store locator

The store locator is a feature on the Outback official website that lets you find your nearby outlets from the master directory. This feature is not unique to this steakhouse, it’s something that has become increasingly common among popular restaurants in the United States, thanks to the handiness.

Unlike that of other restaurants, however, the store locator for Outback Steakhouse works perfectly on both mobile phones and desktops, since there are no complicated maps to deal with. Once you have a device with an internet connection, you can follow the steps below to find the nearest Outback.

  • Open the Outback Steakhouse website on your device

As mentioned above, the store locator feature is embedded on the official website of the restaurant. Thus, it’s practically impossible to use this feature without opening the official website first. When browsing the website, consider using a recent browser to ensure that everything works correctly.

You can access the Outback Steakhouse website in two primary ways: using the web address and by searching your favorite search engine directly. If you’re using the web address, you can simply visit outback.com to go directly to the official website for the steakhouse.

  • Navigate to the store locator

Outback’s store locator is hidden away in an option that says: Find a Location. Depending on what device you’re using to access the website, you should see this option at the top right corner of the website’s interface.

Unlike that the store locator for most restaurants, you don’t need to enable your geolocation services when browsing the store locator. If you’re browsing from the United States, you should see a list of the states in alphabetical order, as well as the number of Outback locations they have in a bracket after them.

  • Find the nearest Outback restaurant (if any)

While you can simply find the nearest outlet by clicking on the states individually to see where their Outback Steakhouse outlets are located, that isn’t the best way. Instead, you can enter the name of your city and you’ll instantly see the available Outback locations if any are available. 

Note that there’s a high chance that you’ll have to drive dozens of miles to get to the nearest Outback. If that’s a sacrifice you’re willing to make for your favorite item on the menu, good luck. However, I’d simply get my steak some place else if I were you.

Conclusion

While Outback Steakhouse serves some of the best steak dishes in the United States, they don’t have enough locations to go around. Depending on where you live, you may have to drive several miles to get to the nearest outlet.

Since that’s not a compromise I’m willing to make for steak, I’d rather eat at a more accessible location. If you can’t access the Outback Steakhouse website for some reason, you can also find the nearest location using Google Maps. What’s more, you’ll also see their operating hours and a contact phone number, negating any need to use the website.
