Schlotzsky's
DRIVE-THRU FAST CASUAL RESTAURANT IN NAPERVILLE, IL
Designed and Built for Schlotzsky's, this project is a 27,000 total square foot fast casual restaurant with a drive-thru and dine-in capabilities.
This project - Illinois’ first Schlotzsky’s fast-casual restaurant - was built from the ground up on a 27,000 SF site and includes a dine-in and takeout space, drive-thru lane, and parking area. The building features a dining room, fully equipped kitchen, bakery, walk-in cooler/freezer, and restrooms, designed to ensure operational efficiency and customer comfort.
Exterior construction used thin brick, EIFS, and metal paneling with a durable Duro-Last roofing system. The interior highlights polished concrete flooring in the dining area, quarry tile in the kitchen, and porcelain tile in the restrooms. Walls were finished with Acrovyn wood wainscot, Marlite FRP, and metal paneling, while lighting included 2x2 lay-in fixtures and decorative elements to enhance the space.
HVAC systems included rooftop units, ventless hoods, and exhaust fans for effective climate control. Additional features like exposed ceilings in the dining room, a functional drive-thru window, and comprehensive kitchen and bakery setups ensured the restaurant’s readiness for high-performance operations.
