Big News, Char's Fam. We're Coming to Waukee!
That's right. Charlotte's Kitchen is officially growing, and our next stop is Waukee, Iowa!
We're thrilled to announce that our fourth location is currently in development at 1165 S.E. University Ave., near Grand Prairie Parkway. We're beyond excited to keep growing the Char's fam and bring those bold, made-with-love flavors to even more communities across the Des Moines metro.
The new Waukee Charlotte's Kitchen will feature a full dine-in dining room and drive-thru service, so whether you're sitting down for a meal with the family or swinging through for a crispy chicken sandwich on the go, we've got you covered. We're targeting a winter 2026 opening, and we're counting down the days.
To everyone in Waukee and West Des Moines who's been making the drive out to see us: we see you, we love you, and we're coming to you. It's about time, right? We can't wait to be part of this community!
Stay tuned to our socials for construction updates, sneak peeks, and all the fun stuff as we get closer to opening day. We've got a lot of exciting things in store, and this is just the beginning!
Waukee, we'll see you real soon.
Follow us on social to catch our weekly chicken specials and monthly milkshake flavors. Plus all the tasty updates and behind-the-scenes fun you don’t want to miss!
