Dunkin remodeling in Orland Park
Noticed the other night that the Dunkin' Donuts at 15609 S. Harlem Ave. in Orland Park was closed with giant trash bins out in front. Don’t fret doughnut lovers, the store is being remodeled and is scheduled to reopen in March. In the meantime, Dunkin stores are still open at 80th Avenue and 171st Street in Tinley Park (no drive-through), Harlem Avenue and 183rd in Tinley Park (a drive-through) and on 159th Street in Oak Forest (with a drive-through).

Coming soon
Signs proclaiming a new Burrito Loco is coming are up at the former Surma’s restaurant at 183rd Street and 80th Avenue in Tinley Park.

Signs are also up proclaiming a new Lindy’s Chili/Gertie’s Ice Cream parlor is coming this summer to the retail center next to the CVS at 167th Street and Harlem Avenue in Tinley Park. There used to be a Lindy's/Gertie's in the Brementowne Mall at 159th Street and Oak Park Avenue.
