Lincoln Commons to Welcome Third Evansville Qdoba Location on October 28

Posted: Tuesday, October 8, 2024

The University of Evansville's (UE) Lincoln Commons student housing apartment complex will soon welcome its first retail tenant, Qdoba, which is set to officially open on October 28. Orange Leaf is scheduled to open days later on November 1.

Located at the corner of Weinbach and Lincoln Avenues, Lincoln Commons is a four-story building offering modern living accommodations for approximately 123 junior and senior students. It opened its doors to students in August at the start of the Fall 2024 semester.

UE officials previously announced that both Qdoba, a fast-casual Mexican restaurant, and Orange Leaf, a self-serve frozen yogurt chain, would be the first tenants to occupy the 3,500 square feet of retail space on the lower level.

Qdoba will open its third location on the UE campus, adding to its existing spots on the East and West sides of the city. Meanwhile, Orange Leaf is expanding with a second location, complementing its current site on the East Side. The restaurant openings are expected to create approximately 30 new jobs, further strengthening the local economy.

"We're thrilled to bring Qdoba's fresh, flavorful offerings to the University of Evansville and the surrounding community," said Derek Ungethiem, President and CEO of Ungethiem Properties LLC and franchisee for Qdoba and Orange Leaf. "This new location will provide a convenient dining option for students and residents alike."
