A Chicago coffee producer with a mission of employing military veterans has selected the Pullman neighborhood as the site of its first restaurant, opting to join the community’s growing roster of businesses.
Mark Doyle, a partner at Veteran Roasters, said it plans a $7.4 million restaurant, coffee roaster and microbrewery. Working with Chicago Neighborhood Initiatives, a nonprofit development firm, his company plans a 16,000-square-foot restaurant with seating for up to 100 people.
