Title: Newk's Jax Expansion
Post by: spuwho on January 09, 2013, 11:26:38 PM
Newk's Express Cafe (currently on Southside by The Avenues) is looking to expand to 3 more sites in greater Jacksonville. One is already underway at River City on the north side. They are actively seeking new locales to build out new stores. Where do you MJ readers think Newk's would be a good fit? They want 5 stores total in the metro area.

Just had a cobb salad from the Avenues location and it was horrible. Worst salad I think I've ever had. Meat was dry as cardboard. Cheese seemed old. Hope it was just a one time thing.

I tried them once and wasn't really impressed.  However, out of the neighborhoods on the list, I could see them expanding with locations at the Beach and Mandarin before Moncrief, Springfield, Nocatee, and Riverside.

The southside location is near our office...and we go every few weeks...the place is usually packed
