Culver’s coming to 1111 W. Addison

The goal is to have the restaurant open by the start of the 2022 Chicago Cubs season

According to Chicago Business Journal, “A Culver’s franchisee said he is close to signing a long-term lease to open a new location near Wrigley Field.” Culver’s was originally supposed to set up shop at 3500 N. Clark street back in 2014, but the deal fell through.

The new space currently is home to Chase Bank, Movement Wrigleyville and Taco Bell Cantina.

For lease: Former Diag & 404 Wine Bar at 2852-2856 N Southport Avenue
