McAlister’s Deli® Headed to Lincoln this May

The fast-casual restaurant continues to expand into the Midwest

February 23, 2018 // Franchising.com // DALLAS - McAlister’s Deli® Dallas based franchisee, The Saxton Group, will open its first McAlister’s Deli Nebraska restaurant in Lincoln this May. In 1989, the first McAlister’s Deli® opened in a converted gas station in Oxford, MS. The fast-casual chain has remained one of the nation’s top franchises by being dedicated to genuine hospitality, handcrafted sandwiches, always-fresh salads, giant stuffed spuds, and McAlister’s Famous Sweet Tea™.

The Lincoln restaurant will be located within the Centro Plaza Shopping Center at 500 N. 48th Street Lincoln, NE 68504. The restaurant will occupy the former Boston Market and will feature a full-service drive-thru. The restaurant is 4,000 square feet and will seat up to 128 guests. The Saxton Group plans to hire 35-40 employees.

“We can’t wait to make the capital city home to Nebraska’s second McAlister’s Deli location. People across the Midwest have fallen in love with McAlister’s Famous Sweet Tea and huge menu of sandwiches, salads, soups, and giant spuds, and I’m certain Lincoln will be no exception. Plus, Lincoln will get to enjoy our recently launched experiences that make dining with McAlister’s even easier for our guests including app-based ordering, a surprise and delight rewards program, and drive-thru for on-the-go convenience,” says co-CEO of The Saxton Group, Adam Saxton.

The restaurant will be operated by The Saxton Group and will represent the franchisee’s 79th McAlister’s Deli restaurant. The Lincoln restaurant will open less than a month after the grand opening of the McAlister’s Deli in Council Bluffs. The Lincoln restaurant represents the continuation of the brand’s expansion into the Midwest.

As with all McAlister’s Deli restaurants, the new Lincoln restaurant will provide customers with a fast-casual dining experience, a friendly atmosphere and personalized service. The restaurant will offer a menu featuring over 100 items including: sandwiches, giant spuds, entrée salads, soups, desserts and its signature McAlister’s Famous Sweet Tea™. In addition to serving dine-in guests, McAlister’s Deli Lincoln will have online ordering, a drive-thru and a full catering menu.
