The entertainment concept that combines tech-driven mini-golf with food and drink is about to open its second location in Illinois.
A 30,000sq ft location will be launched at Westfield Old Orchard Mall in Skokie. About 20 per cent larger than the average Puttshack, the new venue is located in an empty space that formerly housed Lord & Taylor. Puttshack will be joining a refreshed brigade of retail, dining and entertainment tenants that include Louis Vuitton, Bloomies, Bar Siena and Pottery Barn.
“We’re incredibly excited to continue our growth in the Chicagoland area,” said Puttshack COO and CMO Susan Walmesley. “Chicago isn’t just where our headquarters are based – it’s a city we’re deeply connected to. We love the energy, the people and the innovation that defines this region. Expanding in our home market is always special.”
The Old Orchard venue will also be the second location to feature one of Puttshack’s mini-golf innovations – Challenge Hole suites. It’s a private mini golf experience that can be rented to groups for 90-minute sessions and full-service dining. Skokie will have five of these suites available for booking.
