DQ Grill & Chill®

The DQ Grill & Chill® restaurant offers a total food service program, that features the full line of DQ® soft serve dairy products and an all-new food menu. These restaurants are designed to highlight the food offerings while being true to our heritage of great DQ® treats. The interior is warm and inviting – different from the typical quick service restaurant.

“ After three years of intense searching for a new concept to add to our business portfolio, the DQ Grill & Chill® was a perfect choice. The DQ Grill & Chill® concept fills a major void in the food service industry. Whoever thought of this concept really did their homework. Being part of the DQ® family gave us instant name recognition and credibility with consumers. The DQ Grill & Chill® has exceeded all of our expectations! ” Scott Lukas DQ Grill & Chill® Franchisee Rosedale, MD

Development Options

Standard Program
This single-unit program is available to prospective franchisees who have experience operating a restaurant or other retail establishment, have the financial resources to invest in the business, and will be responsible for the day-to-day operation of the restaurant.

Multi-unit Developer
If you are a serious restaurateur in search of a
category leader with brand equity to add to your portfolio, this is the program for you. A number of areas in the United States are currently available for new and existing multi-unit development.

Investor Program
If you are interested in owning a Dairy Queen® franchise, but do not plan to be involved in its day-to-day operation, our Investor Program may be right for you.
