The Shreveport Times: DQ Grill & Chill Brings New Experience to Communities Across Louisiana

Dairy Queen® is looking to add new Shreveport and Bossier City, Louisiana locations. The Bossier City DQ Grill & Chill® is scheduled to open in August, with another location set to open in October.

The Grill & Chill model offers a different experience, including covered patios and temperature control fans.

Franchisee Michael Quarles will be opening the new locations in Shreveport-Bossier City, and has three currently operating in Monroe, West Monroe, and Ruston.

"Shreveport's humongous - it's a big area with different markets all through Shreveport and Bossier and I'm just trying to get in the markets where we aren't located and give everybody a taste of Dairy Queen."

The DQ Grill & Chill concept presents the ideal setting for a date night, family outing or social hour, Quarles explained.

"We have a fair price and I feel it's going to be a hit over there. All the kids come in their baseball, football or softball uniforms, and for all the kids we give out a free small cup if you come in your uniform at my locations," Quarles said.
