If you are thinking about chomping down on a Caniac Combo at the Southlake Mall in Hobart, think again. After months of construction and over a million dollars spent on the famed chicken-only joint that is slowly invading the midwest, Cane’s were notified by the mall that McDonald’s has “exclusive rights to sell chicken at the shopping center located next to Southlake Mall.”
“Incredibly, Defendants did not tell Raising Cane’s it would be unable to sell its chicken fingers at the Shopping Center until nearly eight months after watching Raising Cane’s spend nearly a year of time and over a million dollars to develop its new restaurant,” the lawsuit said.
This is a loss not only to the mall, but all of Lake County, as now their chances of sucking down some succulent Texas Toast are slimmer than ever before. Thoughts and prayers to you, Hobart.
