RUSSELL WELCOMES BUBBA'S 33 TO GROWING RETAIL DEVELOPMENT

Bubba’s 33, an affiliate of Texas Roadhouse, is bringing its scratch-made food, upbeat service, and family-friendly energy to Davenport for its first Iowa location. The new restaurant will be located at the corner of 53rd Street and Ravenwood Drive, directly east of the recently opened Panda Express.

“We can’t wait to bring Bubba’s 33 to Iowa,” said Doug Drens, Regional Director of Real Estate at Texas Roadhouse. “Davenport’s energy and growth made it the perfect place for our next location, and we’re excited to serve up scratch-made food for all in the Quad Cities.”

Founded in 2013 by Kent Taylor, the visionary behind Texas Roadhouse, Bubba’s 33 was created with a focus on delicious, hand-crafted meals, genuine hospitality, and a fun, sports-centric atmosphere. With more than 50 existing Bubba’s 33 locations across 15 states, the brand has gained popularity nationwide and is now making its debut in the Iowa market as part of a larger national expansion. Design is currently underway for the new location.

“We are excited to bring additional development to this national chain that offers a truly unique dining experience to the community,” said Damen Trebilcock, Vice President of Real Estate at Russell. “With the proven success of Texas Roadhouse in our town, we’re confident Bubba’s 33 will be a strong addition to the Quad Cities.”

This development is in collaboration with Jones Lang LaSalle, Inc. (JLL) and Hawkeye Commercial Real Estate. Bubba’s 33 joins the growing list of businesses that have been brought to the Russell-developed site known as Birchwood South, including Starbucks, Jersey Mike’s, Rock Valley Physical Therapy, Mister Car Wash, Freddy’s Frozen Custard & Steakburgers, and Hy-Vee Fast & Fresh. Additionally, Russell is currently developing a new 10,000 s.f. retail center south of Panda Express, with two leases already signed for the space.
