Frankfort, IL – The Frankfort Village Board announced the demolition of the former Steak ‘n Shake at the prime location along Route 45, making way for a new Chick-fil-A. This development is set to transform the high-traffic area, bringing a popular fast-food franchise to the heart of Frankfort.
Mayor Ogle reported that the demolition has already begun, with plans in place to replace the old Steak ‘n Shake structure with a Chick-fil-A. Located at one of Frankfort’s busiest corridors, the new restaurant aims to draw both local customers and travelers along Route 45, potentially boosting the local economy. Chick-fil-A, known for its customer service and popular menu, is expected to attract significant foot traffic and create new job opportunities within the community.
The addition of Chick-fil-A aligns with Frankfort’s ongoing efforts to revitalize and develop its commercial spaces, particularly along key roadways. According to village officials, this new establishment marks a significant investment in the area, as residents and businesses look forward to the anticipated opening.
