ALGONQUIN, IL — A new business boom will be hitting Algonquin in the coming months.

Shaw Local News Networks reports the following businesses have or are slated to open soon:

• Dave's Hot Chicken, a fast-casual restaurant with locations across the suburbs, opened its first Algonquin location at 1492 S. Randall Road last Friday
• Picklehaus, a pickle ball facility, will open its 41,000-square-foot entertainment venue and eatery in the former Dania Furniture at 1621 Randall Road on Friday.

Village officials told Shaw Local News Network the openings are a result of a lot of businesses expressing interest coming to Algonquin over the past five years and many of those plans coming to fruition all at once.

"It's exciting to see our vacant store and restaurant spaces are opening now with new-purposefacilities," said village president Debby Sosine.
