New restaurants and attractions transforming Lee's Summit

Lee's Summit, Missouri, is set to welcome several new dining and entertainment options in the coming years, as highlighted in the latest development update. Among the notable projects, Chicken Salad Chick, a fast-casual restaurant specializing in chicken salads and sandwiches, is slated to open at the end of 2024. It will be located near 30 Hop Bar and Grill, Magic Noodle, and Nick the Greek.

Additionally, Summit Orchards will introduce Salad and Go, a drive-through restaurant focused on fresh salads and wraps, expected to open in spring 2025. The same location will also feature Andy's Frozen Custard, offering a variety of frozen treats, which is also set to open in spring 2025.

Another exciting addition is Craft Putt, an indoor mini-golf bar and restaurant that will include two custom-designed mini-golf courses, along with a menu featuring tacos, burgers, and local craft brews. Craft Putt is anticipated to open by the end of 2024.

In a separate segment, the Lee's Summit sign department provided insights into their sign-making process. The team emphasized the importance of field studies conducted by traffic engineers to determine the need for new signs or the removal of existing ones. The process involves using aluminum blanks, cutting, printing, and applying letters to create street name signs, which are then installed in the field after checking for underground utilities.

These developments reflect the city's ongoing growth and commitment to enhancing community amenities and infrastructure. For more information on upcoming projects, residents are encouraged to visit the city’s official website.
