"...We love the market, it's a growing market and Tulsa didn't see the dips a lot of the rest of the country saw, so we love it here," said operating partner Nick Esterline.
The new location, scheduled for a soft opening on Nov. 6, is amidst a sea of new development in Broken Arrow. Freddy's at 1151 E. Hillside Dr. will have a grand opening on Nov. 7.
Operating partners Jason Ingermanson and Nick Esterline have development rights for a total of five, not including the existing one on 71st St. They are looking at all possible development locations including Owasso, Broken Arrow and Midtown.
Hank Estrada and Derek Riise are the general manager and assistant general manager, respectively, at the new location.
