Since that time, Nic’s Organic Fast Food has opened two additional locations, one at Woodfield Mall in Schaumburg and the other in The Loop in downtown Chicago. The restaurant will open its fourth location soon in Evanston. Everything on Nic’s Organic Fast Food menu, from burgers and fries to ice cream, is made from organic ingredients that are sourced locally. Customers can also order online and request delivery through Postmates, Ritual, or Uber Eats. Within the next three years, Nic’s Organic Fast Food plans to open 50 locations in major cities in Arizona, Colorado, California, Florida, Massachusetts, New York, and Oregon.
