Florence, S.C. – Big news for food lovers in Florence! The popular fast-food chain Cook Out has stepped into the spotlight with its recent purchase of the former Lidl grocery store property for a staggering $4.75 million. This vast 6.4-acre lot, located along the bustling West Palmetto Street near David McLeod Boulevard, was previously home to the Lidl grocery store, which served the community for five years before closing its doors on July 16, 2023.
Now, if you’re wondering what this means for the locals, fret not! Cook Out, which hails from North Carolina and is renowned for its delicious menu that boasts an array of burgers, hot dogs, and mouthwatering milkshakes, may be planning both expansion and new offerings in the community. As of now, there hasn’t been an official announcement regarding their plans for this newly acquired property, leaving many residents buzzing with curiosity and excitement.
Cook Out isn’t a stranger to Florence, as they already have two locations serving their tasty food on Irby Street and Lucas Street. Their presence in the area has been well-received, and fans of the brand are eagerly awaiting what the future holds!
You might be wondering why Lidl, known for its easy-to-shop layout and exclusive brand products, decided to leave Florence. Lidl was quite the hit in the grocery business, boasting around 90 percent of its stock as exclusive brand products alongside award-winning wines and freshly baked goods. It’s a shame to see them go, as they provided a unique shopping experience focusing on healthy and sustainable choices. However, as they say, when one door closes, another one opens—welcome, Cook Out!
But the excitement doesn’t stop there! The city has been buzzing with activity lately. Florence Mayor Teresa Myers Ervin recently held a press conference marking her last day in office, and during this transitional period, the Francis Marion University Board of Trustees made headlines by approving the naming of two facilities and a utility easement, as well as a holiday bonus for employees. Wow, talk about spreading some festive cheer!
Oh! And let’s not forget some *spooky* tales making the rounds. There have been whispers and questions about whether the legendary creature known as Bigfoot has been roaming around South Carolina! Was he taking the opportunity to visit the area? Local folklore sometimes intertwines with our daily news, adding a touch of mystery and intrigue to the community vibe.
As Florence navigates through this exciting transition with Cook Out moving in, we’ll be keeping our fingers crossed for some delicious offerings in the near future. Are you as excited as we are to see what Cook Out has planned for the old Lidl site? Stay tuned because we’re sure there’s more to come in this ever-changing landscape of our beloved city!
Florence locals, get ready! The winds of change are blowing, and they smell a lot like grilled burgers and thick, creamy milkshakes. Let’s welcome Cook Out with open arms and taste buds!
