Kwik Trip plans to build a convenience store and gas station at the site of the Fireside Restaurant & Lounge in Kenosha.
Located at 2801 30th Ave. on the city’s north side, Fireside Restaurant & Lounge is a family-owned business that has been in operation for more than 50 years. Last year the business announced that it planned to sell its 13,000-square-foot building, but would remain in operation into this year. In April, the business announced on Facebook that it will remain in operation “at the very least till the end of September.”

The 3.6-acre property has been listed for sale by Berkshire Hathaway Epic Real Estate.
La Crosse-based Kwik Trip, founded in 1965, now has 878 locations, including 8 in Kenosha and 4 in neighboring Pleasant Prairie.
The company plans to tear down the Fireside Restaurant & Lounge building to make way for a 9,100-square-foot convenience store, gas station and car wash building.
