In October 2022, we first caught wind of an Original ChopShop coming to Tucson.
It’s been pretty windy lately and another gust of information just came in: We now know that the official Grand Opening for the restaurant at 2749 N. Campbell Ave. is on Wednesday, June 5. The team was aiming to open the restaurant last summer but, you know, stuff happens.
This is the company’s first location in Tucson and the team is pumped to join the city — a city that was the first UNESCO City of Gastronomy designation in the U.S.
“We are thrilled to expand outside of the Phoenix metro and introduce our range of wholesome and affordable food options to the Tucson community,” said Jason Morgan, CEO of Original ChopShop. “Our excitement is amplified by the fact that this Shop resonates with our brand identity in a special way in building it from the ground up.”
Before the building on the property was demolished, it housed L’amour Nails.
“We believe this Shop’s ambiance is poised to play a pivotal role in achieving our goal of making convenient, feel-good food more accessible within our home state of Arizona,” Morgan added.
The new restaurant is going to be open 7 a.m. – 9 p.m. daily
What’s Cookin’?
The menu includes all sorts of dishes ranging from salads, superfruit bowls, parfaits, sandwiches like the Moroccan Turkey and Grilled Steak, and a mighty collection of protein bowls.
The protein bowls already come with roasted broccoli, cauliflower, onion, carrot, and mushroom but you’ve got the option to include proteins such as Thai Coconut Chicken, Green Curry Tofu, Spicy Korean Steak, Teriyaki Chicken, Sweet Soy Sesame Steak, and Red Chili Lime Shrimp.
Original ChopShop’s Story
The first owners of Original ChopShop opened the flagship location in Old Town Scottsdale in 2013. With the success of their first location, a second spot was opened near ASU in Tempe less than a year later.
Then, in 2016, the owners sold “controlling interest in the company” to a group of Texas-based investors that wished to expand Original ChopShop outside of Arizona.
The Grand Opening for Tucson’s location is on Wednesday, June 5.
Original ChopShop is located at 2749 N. Campbell Ave. For more information, visit originalchopshop.com and follow Original ChopShop on Instagram.
