The economy in Lafayette must still be rockin' and rollin' because yet another business has announced they are opening new stores in the Hub City.

Freddy's Frozen Custard and Steakburgers will be opening two Lafayette locations within the next year.

The first one is set to open before the end of the year in the shopping center on the corner of Bertrand Drive and Congress Street.

The second location will open in early 2016 in the Ambassador Town Center on Kaliste Saloom Road.

Construction should begin on the first location by to mid-to-late summer and the second location by late summer, according to franchise owner Nick Esterline.

According to the company's website, they describe their steakburgers as cooked-to-order and made from premium, lean beef. It also says that their frozen custard is smoother and richer than ice cream because of a churning process that produces less ice crystals and air.

Founded in 2002, Freddy’s is a fast-casual restaurant with a late 1940s to early 1950s post-war diner theme. There are currently 156 locations across 23 states and 20 additional locations are on track to open up by the end of the year.
