Fatburger Announces Opening of Second Chicago Area Location
27 November 2024 - 3:00PM
FAT (Fresh. Authentic. Tasty.) Brands Inc., parent company of
Fatburger, Buffalo’s Express and 16 other restaurant concepts,
announces the opening of Fatburger and Buffalo’s Express in Chicago
in the Chatham community, in partnership with franchisee Jackie
Jackson, a well-known business figure throughout the Chicago area
who was recently named Small Business Administration’s Illinois
small-business person of the year.
“We are pleased to continue our growth
throughout Illinois with an experienced small business owner like
Jackie Jackson,” said Jake Berchtold, COO of FAT
Brands’ Fast Casual Division. “There was strong demand to
get a taste of Fatburger’s iconic, made-to-order burgers when we
opened in Orland Park last year and we look forward to introducing
sister brand, Buffalo’s Express, to the Chatham community,
providing them with award-winning wings to pair their burgers,
shakes and fries with.”
Ever since the first Fatburger opened in Los
Angeles over 70 years ago, the chain has been known for its
delicious, grilled-to-perfection and cooked to order burgers.
Founder Lovie Yancey believed that a big burger with everything on
it is a meal in itself. At Fatburger, “everything” is not just the
usual lettuce, tomato, onion, mayo, mustard, pickles and relish.
Burgers can be customized with toppings including bacon, eggs,
chili and onion rings. In addition to its famous burgers, the
Fatburger menu also includes Fat and Skinny Fries, sweet potato
fries, scratch-made onion rings, turkeyburgers, hand-breaded crispy
chicken sandwiches, and hand-scooped milkshakes made from 100% real
ice cream.
A perfect complement to Fatburger, Buffalo’s
Express menu includes delicious bone-in and boneless chicken wings
accompanied by a range of sauces. All of Buffalo’s Express’ wings
are accompanied by celery, carrots, and blue cheese, ranch or honey
mustard dressing.
The new Fatburger and Buffalo’s Express is
located at 825 E 87th St., Chicago, IL 60619 and is open Sunday
through Thursday, 10:30 a.m. to 4:00 a.m. and Friday and Saturday,
10:30 a.m. to 5:00 a.m. Fatburger Chatham will host a grand opening
celebration on Saturday, Dec. 14. All guests who visit during the
grand opening celebration will receive a free order of Fatburger’s
famous fries with any purchase.
