         VICORP RESTAURANTS, INC. EMPLOYEES' PROFIT SHARING PLAN
                      NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.   Description of Plan
     ___________________

     The VICORP Restaurants, Inc. Employees' Profit Sharing Plan (the
     "Plan"), was established October 1968 for the exclusive benefit of
     VICORP Restaurants, Inc. (the "Company" or "VICORP") employees and
     their beneficiaries.   The Plan is a defined contribution plan
     covering all employees of the Company who are at least 21 years of
     age and have completed one year of service as defined in the Plan.
     The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement
     Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA").  Participants should refer
     to the Plan agreement for a more complete description of the Plan's
     provisions.   It is administered by the Plan Manager and Plan
     Administrator, all appointed by the Company's Board of Directors.
     The Plan's assets are managed through a trust agreement with The
     Bank of Cherry Creek, (the "Trustee").  Certain administrative and
     accounting services of the Plan are provided by the Company at no
     cost.  Benefits under the Plan are not guaranteed by the Pension
     Benefit Guarantee Corporation.

2.   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
     __________________________________________

     The financial statements of the Plan are presented on the accrual
     basis of accounting.

     Assets of the Plan are valued at fair values as of the end of the
     Plan year.  Fair value is determined as follows:

     a.    Investments in publicly traded stocks, bonds and mutual funds
           are valued based upon available market quotations as of the last
           business day of the Plan year.

     b.    Investments in short-term cash equivalents are valued at cost,
           which approximates market value.

     c.    Guaranteed investment contracts, including the Fidelity
           Managed Income Portfolio, are valued at the original
           investment plus interest earned through the last day
           of the Plan year.  Cost plus interest approximates fair
           market value.

     d.    Real Estate investments are valued at appraised value, as
           determined by independent appraisals performed from
           time to time and as adjusted by the Plan Manager when,
           in its judgment, material changes in value have
           occurred.

     Unrealized appreciation or depreciation is the difference between
     the fair value at the end of the current year and the cost of the
     investment, if acquired during the current Plan year, or the fair
     value at the beginning of the Plan year.

     Realized gain or loss on investments is the difference between the
     sales proceeds and the value of the Plan assets sold at the
     beginning of the year, or original cost if acquired and sold during
     the same Plan year.

     Benefits are recorded when paid.


     Use of Estimates
     ________________

     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
     generally accepted accounting principles requires the use of
     management estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
     amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent
     assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
     the reported amounts of income and changes in plan equity for each
     reporting period.   Actual results could differ from those
     estimates.

3.   Investment Programs
     ___________________ 

     Participant Contributions
     _________________________

     Effective April 1, 1989, participants are allowed to designate the
     investment of their contributions into various investment
     categories selected by the Plan Manager.  Investment selections
     may be changed four times a year at the beginning of each calendar
     quarter.  Participants may select from five investment funds.  The
     minimum designation to any fund is 10% and thereafter, designations
     must be made in increments of 10%.

     The following summarizes the investment programs currently
     available to participants:

          The VICORP Restaurants, Inc. Common Stock Fund invests in
          VICORP Common Stock, which is publicly traded in the over-the-
          counter market and is quoted on the National Association of
          Securities Dealers, National Market System.

          The Guaranteed Investment Contract ("GIC") Fund invests in the
          Fidelity Managed Income Portfolio ("Fidelity Portfolio").  The
          Fidelity Portfolio is comprised of high quality fixed and
          variable rate investment contracts issued by insurance
          companies or banks, synthetic contracts, and units of a money
          market portfolio.   The Fidelity Portfolio is managed by
          Fidelity Management Trust Company, a division of Fidelity
          Investments.  The GIC Fund seeks protection of principal with
          a fixed rate of return over a specified time period, with both
          principal and interest guaranteed by the issuing institution.

          The Fidelity Magellan Fund is a publicly traded mutual fund
          that actively seeks capital appreciation by investing in
          common stocks and securities convertible into common stock.
          This fund is managed by Fidelity Management & Research
          Company.
          
          The Fidelity Puritan Fund is a publicly traded mutual fund
          that seeks to produce as much income as possible while
          preserving capital by investing in a broadly diversified
          portfolio of high yielding securities, including common
          stocks, preferred stocks and bonds and securities convertible
          into common stock.   This fund is managed by Fidelity
          Management & Research Company.

          The Fidelity Equity-Income Fund is a publicly traded mutual
          fund that seeks to produce income by investing primarily in
          income-producing equity securities that also consider the
          potential for capital appreciation.  This fund is managed by
          Fidelity Management & Research Company.
          
      The Plan Manager may add or delete investment categories at any
      time, as long as a diversified group of investment categories is
      available into which participants may invest.

      As of December 31, 1996, the number of participants in the above
      described investment programs was as follows:

               VICORP Stock Fund             577
               GIC Fund                      896
               Fidelity Magellan Fund        962
               Fidelity Puritan Fund         782
               Fidelity Equity-Income Fund   779
               Loan Fund (described below)   344

     The total number of participants in the above listing is greater
     than the total number of Plan participants because certain
     participants have elected more than one fund.

     Loans
     _____

     Participants may borrow from their vested account balances to the
     extent permitted by the Plan Manager as provided under current
     regulatory guidelines.  Loans are considered an investment choice
     for the participants borrowing funds from the Plan.  Repayment is
     required through payroll deductions over a maximum period of 5
     years unless the loan is used to purchase, construct or
     rehabilitate the participant's principal residence, in which case
     repayment must be made within 10 years.  Loans must be repaid in
     full at the time of termination.  The interest rate on loans is 1%
     above the prime rate at the date the loan is made.  At December 31,
     1996, interest rates on outstanding loans ranged from 7.0% to 11.5%
     with maturity dates ranging from February 1, 1997 to November 28,
     2006.

     Employer Contributions Fund
     ___________________________

     Company contributions are invested in real estate (Note 8), mutual
     fund investments, U.S. Treasury Notes, and short-term temporary cash 
     investments.  Company contributions are maintained in this fund,
     because they are directed by the Plan Trustee.

4.   Contributions
     _____________

     Eligible employees may elect to contribute, as a salary reduction,
     between 2% and 18% of their annual compensation, as defined in the
     Plan, with a maximum annual contribution of $9,500, $9,240 and
     $9,240 in 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively, subject to certain
     limitations required by the Internal Revenue Service.
     Contributions made that are subsequently determined to exceed these
     limitations, together with income applicable to such amounts, are
     refunded to the affected participants at least annually.   Changes
     in the level of contributions may be made once each calendar
     quarter.  Additionally, participants may discontinue or
     resume contributions voluntarily suspended, on a quarterly basis.

     The Company's contribution, if any, is determined annually by the
     Board of Directors.  In years in which VICORP is profitable, a
     Company contribution will be made equal to a minimum of 2% of the
     aggregate compensation as defined in the Plan, of all participants
     in the Plan for that year.  In no event will the Company's
     contribution exceed 15% of any participant's compensation during
     the year of participation in the Plan, nor will it exceed 15% of
     the aggregate compensation of all participants in the Plan for the
     year.

     The Company experienced losses in 1996, 1995 and 1994.  However, at
     the request of VICORP management, the Board of Directors agreed to
     fund Company contributions in full for the Plan years ending
     December 31, 1996 and 1994.  For the Plan year ending December 31,
     1995, the Board of Directors agreed to fund the Company
     contribution subject to a maximum contribution of $335 per
     participant.   The plan was amended effective January 1, 1995 to
     provide for this contribution.

     Forfeitures from terminated Plan participants who are not fully
     vested in their employer contributions are reallocated to the
     accounts of active participants at the end of the Plan year in
     addition to the Company's contribution.

5.   Withdrawals, Distributions and Vesting
     ______________________________________

     Upon retirement, disability or termination of employment,
     participants' contributions and their vested employer fund account
     balances are available for distribution in a lump sum in the
     calendar quarter following the quarter in which their termination
     occurred or in monthly installments, as elected by the participant.
     All investments of a terminating participant will be converted to
     cash for purposes of distribution.  Obligations for distributions
     to participants who terminated from the Plan prior to December 31,

     Of the above amounts, distributions amounting to $447,940 were
     requested by terminated participants prior to December 31, 1996,
     but were paid subsequent to year end.  The above obligations are
     shown as a component of net assets in the accompanying financial
     statements.

     Participants are always 100% vested in their employee accounts.
     Years of service determine vesting amounts in the employer fund
     account balance.  The Plan's vesting schedule is as follows:
  
                                                  Percentage of
                                                  Employer Fund
             Years of Service                Account Which is Vested
             ________________                _______________________

             Fewer than 2                               0
             2 or more but fewer than 3                20
             3 or more but fewer than 4                40
             4 or more but fewer than 5                60
             5 or more but fewer than 6                80
             6 or more                                100

     In-service withdrawals are limited to hardship withdrawals and par-
     ticipant loans.   Hardship withdrawals are taken from the
     participant's employee contribution account.  Hardship withdrawals
     are permitted only if the participant has an immediate and heavy
     financial need, as defined, and has no other resources available to
     meet that need.  If a participant qualifies for and receives a
     hardship withdrawal, contributions must be suspended for 12 months
     from the date of the hardship distribution, and the maximum
     contribution the participant may make the year following the year
     of distribution must be reduced by the amount contributed in the
     year of the withdrawal.

     Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has
     the right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any
     time and to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA.
     In the event of Plan termination, participants will become 100%
     vested in their accounts.

6.   Tax Status
     __________

     A  favorable determination letter dated December 6, 1996, has been
     received by the Plan from the Internal Revenue  Service ("IRS")
     indicating the Plan qualifies under Section 401(a) of the Internal
     Revenue Code (the "Code") and is exempt from federal income tax
     under Section 501(a) of the Code.

     Under the provisions of the Plan, participants may elect to defer
     their compensation from a minimum of 2% to a maximum of 18%
     (subject to certain limitations under the Code and the Plan) as
     employee contributions to the Plan.  Amounts so deferred, along
     with amounts contributed by the employer and earnings thereon, are
     not taxable to participants until distributed from the Plan.

          REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS


To the Plan Adminstrator and Plan Participants of
   VICORP Restaurants, Inc. Employees' Profit
   Sharing Plan:


We have audited the accompanying statements of financial condition including the
Statement of Investments Held (Schedule I) of the VICORP RESTAURANTS, INC.
EMPLOYEES' PROFIT SHARING PLAN (the "Plan") as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, 
and the related statements of Plan income and changes in Plan equity for each of
the three years in the period ended December 31, 1996.  These financial 
statements and the schedules referred to below are the responsibility of the 
Plan's management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these 
financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing 
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatements.  An audit includes examining, on test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in 
all material respects, the financial condition of the Plan as of December 31,
1996 and 1995 and the Plan income and changes in Plan equity for the three years
in the period ended December 31, 1996, in comformity with generally accepted 
accounting principles.

Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic 
financial statements taken as a whole.  The supplemental schedules of the
Allocation of the Plan Assets and Libilities to Investment Programs  as of
December 31, 1996 and 1995 (Schedule II), the Allocation of Plan Income and
Changes in Plan Equity to Investment Programs (Schedule III) for each of the
three years in the period ended December 31, 1996 and Reportable Transcations 
in Excess of 5% of the Plan Assets for the year ended December 31, 1996
(Schedule IV), are presented for purposes of complying with the regulations of
the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Department of Labor's Rules and
Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974.  The supplemental schedules have been subjected to the
auditing procedured applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and,
in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material aspects in relation to the 
financial statements taken as a whole.
