Everdine’s Grilled Cheese Co. is Closing This Week
Everdine’s Grilled Cheese Co. is a family-owned sandwich restaurant in downtown Naperville. It specializes in gourmet grilled cheese sandwiches. The restaurant served gourmet grilled cheese sandwiches and other menu items in downtown Naperville.
The restaurant announced that its Naperville location is closing permanently on July 17. The restaurant did not publicly disclose the reason behind the closure. However, the news has left many customers saddened.
Everdine’s opened in 2016 when owners Kelly and Brian were inspired by a backpacking honeymoon. During the trip, grilled cheese became their go-to budget meal. The idea then turned into a restaurant focused on creative, handcrafted grilled cheese combinations.

We are so grateful for all our wonderful customers who stuck by and supported us through this last decade. It has been such a pleasure getting to know so many of you throughout the years. And to our amazing staff, current and past, getting to know you and watching you grow has been one of the greatest joys of having this business.”
The restaurant also confirmed that only the Naperville location is closing this week. Everdine’s Batavia location will remain open, continuing to serve customers.
