Chipotle And Chick-Fil-A Opening In Joliet's Rock Run Collection: WJOL

JOLIET — One of the greatest development projects in the history of Joliet, the Rock Run Collection off Interstates 55 and I-80, is anchored by the Hollywood Casino that is opening in the coming months. Now, WJOL is reporting that eventually, a Chipotle Mexican Grill and a Chick-fil-A restaurant will also be built there.

Brian Bessler shared the WJOL story with his Facebook restaurant group and he drew a lot of reaction from people, and most of it was very negative:

Here's a sampling of the reaction to Bessler's post:

"What about real restaurants not fast food?"

"We need something new, not the same of the other 20 in the area. BOORINNG."

"We need a patio!"

"A Cheddars would be amazing! Especially since they closed the Bolingbrook location."

"How boring."

"Yay. More fast food."

"Wow, more garbage chains. I have never and will never eat Chick fil A."

"Love all the positivity! Chipotle and Chick fil A are a good start. Need to lock in a Starbucks and then other places that clearly everyone on this post are looking for will follow suit."

"The casino exterior looks very boring compared to the renderings that we had seen previously. Oh just what we need is another Chick-fil-A and Chipotle. How about a Trader Joe's we need in this area that currently requires everyone to go to Naperville or Willowbrook ..."
