Qdoba Mexican Grill is opening in Cool Springs!

CoolSprings.com spoke with a manager today who said they are planning to open around Thanksgiving.

The fast casual Mexican restaurant chain is opening in a new retail center now under construction in front of Lowe’s on Mallory Lane in Franklin, TN.

CoolSprings.com previously broke news of Panda Express opening in Cool Springs along with a mattress store and Mexican restaurant (at the time unnamed) planned to occupy the free standing, three tenant retail development on Mallory Lane.

We predict the new Qdoba in Cool Springs to do well.  Qdoba will have a highly visible location and great access with a traffic light at the main entrance to big box anchor Lowe’s.  By comparison Chipotle Mexican Grill, a direct competitor of Qdoba, is buried in poorly located retail space with no traffic light.  The Cool Springs area Chiptotle is difficult to enter/exit during peak lunch or dinner hours.  Although Chipotle has fantastic food that we love and most locations do very well, this one never seems very busy.  Remember the old saying “Out of sight, out of mind”?  That would be Chipotle in Cool Springs, located in an older area away from the new growth in Cool Springs.  For restaurants opening in Cool Springs, location is one very important factor not to be overlooked by your retail broker.  Qdoba had much better foresight with their strategic choice of location closer to the new growth centered around the recently opened Whole Foods McEwen.
