Many of the stores that were much anticipated to open at the new Beaufort Station Shopping Center have already opened their doors, but what about some food? Chicken Salad Chick opened on October 15th, but what about Panda Express and Surcheros in Beaufort?
Sucheros Fresh Mex is one of the tenants that is setting up shop at the center, and it had originally announced that the restaurant had planned to open on November 19th.
As of October 29th, that has now been delayed.
We received an email from Surcheros contracted marketing firm letting us know that the opening of the restaurant has been delayed until sometime in 2025.
The reason we were given is due to construction delays.
When it does finally open, the new Surcheros in Beaufort will be the first location in South Carolina for the growing, Georgia-based Tex-Mex chain.
With over 30 locations across Florida and Georgia, Surcheros is celebrated for its fresh, Mexican-inspired offerings, featuring customizable burritos, bowls, tacos, nachos, quesadillas, salads and more.
In early 2024, the chain announced plans to open 100 restaurants within the next five years. The company expects to open 15 to 20 locations by the end of 2025.
The 209,250 square foot shopping center with outparcels on the corner of Robert Smalls Parkway and Paris Island Gateway is home to a variety of businesses that are new to Beaufort, SC as well as a couple that have moved across the highway to enjoy the new digs.
Among tenants that have opened at the new shopping center are PetSmart, TJ Maxx, Home Goods, Five Below, and Rack Room Shoes, Hobby Lobby, Ross Dress for Less, Ulta Beauty, and Old Navy.
Joining Surcheros in Beaufort as new neighbors will be Chicken Salad Chick, Le Nails, Panda Express, Surcheros Fresh Mex, Mattress Warehouse, America’s Best, a Parker’s Kitchen and a Parker’s Car Wash.
“Beaufort is a beautiful community, and growing, but underserved in retail,” said Jeff Surrency, executive vice president of development at The Morgan Companies, the developers of Beaufort Station.
“We continue to attract high quality tenants for this project, and we couldn’t be more excited,” said Trey Morgan, President of The Morgan Companies. “This is not only a testament to great real estate, but a growing, vibrant community as well.”
We’re looking forward to Surcheros in Beaufort, whenever it comes.
