The new restaurant will be located on the corner of US-98 and Clubhouse Road, on the east side of the road, and on the opposite corner from the McDonald’s, said owner Hollie Swan.
Swan said she could not disclose the physical address of the location yet but said the Culver’s will be a brand new construction project with a double drive-thru and two patios – one covered and one not. She said the restaurant will likely seat about 100 people.
Swan said the building, tentatively set for groundbreaking in June, will be a brand new construction. She added that the restaurant is set to open “before the end of the year,” hopefully around November.
“We wanted to be in Lakeland since I started with Culver’s, since I went through the training to be a franchisee, and that was six years ago,” Swan said. “We finally found this location and we just feel like it’s just going to be a wonderful addition to that area.”
