Cheba Hut is set to open a new location in Fort Worth along the North Freeway. The fast-casual restaurant chain, known for its toasted subs, plans to start construction on January 18, 2024, with expectations to complete the project by April 26, 2024. The new outpost will occupy approximately 2,800 square feet at 9833 North Freeway, Suite 171.

Construction and Franchise Details

The Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation confirms that the franchisee, Chance Steed, is spearheading this new venture. Steed, who already operates a Cheba Hut location on 8th Avenue, has been instrumental in expanding the brand within the North Texas region. Previous reports from local news outlets, including Fort Worth Magazine, have highlighted his efforts in bringing Cheba Hut to the area.

The construction will transform a grey-shell space into a fully operational restaurant. With its anticipated opening in spring, Cheba Hut aims to cater to the local community with a diverse menu and inviting atmosphere.

Menu and Brand Experience

Cheba Hut’s offerings go beyond just subs; the chain features over 30 signature toasted sub varieties, alongside sides and desserts. Many locations also include a craft-beer bar, designed to attract an evening crowd. The company emphasizes a relaxed dining experience, which is reflected in its eclectic decor and late-night hours.

The North Freeway location is part of a broader expansion strategy in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. Recently, Cheba Hut opened a new restaurant in McKinney, following openings in Arlington, Denton, and Mansfield. Local reports indicate that Cheba Hut is actively increasing its presence in suburban areas throughout North Texas.

As of now, the North Freeway address is not listed on Cheba Hut’s official locations page. However, state filings remain the primary source of information linking the chain to this new development. The company has yet to issue an official announcement regarding the opening of this location, but the community is eager to welcome the new restaurant to Fort Worth.
