About us
Cheba Hut has been escaping the established and getting “toasted” since 1998. We have broken the mold of mundane fast-casual concepts and set ourselves apart by becoming the first marijuana-themed “joint” - (pun intended). We are dedicated to combining locally sourced ingredients with a chill, welcoming environment where genuine food is served by genuine people. Our relaxed, fun, and authentic dining experience includes a full-service bar and highlights our menu because it’s not about getting high, it’s about epic food and legendary service! At Cheba Hut, we serve mouth-watering “toasted” subs on garlic “herb” bread, with a “secret stash” of “home-grown” spices. We offer more than 30 signature subs, all of which are handcrafted with the best bread in the business, high-quality hand-sliced meats, and cheeses, fresh crisp veggies, and topped with our homemade sauces and dressings. Over the past 20 years, we have seen steady growth and today our huts can be found in over 20 locations, across 7 states. We are proud to have created more than just a place people want to hang out at; we have turned our customers into raving, loyal fans who wear our sweet branded threads and spread the word of peace, love, and Cheba Hut everywhere they go!

🌿 Franchisee Spotlight: Meredith Beck Wiggins | Cheba Hut Baton Rouge, LA 🌿 “I’ve been in the restaurant industry for over 25 years, and Cheba Hut is the first concept I’ve been part of that truly puts people first—both customers and crew. At our Baton Rouge shop, we’re more than a sandwich spot—we’re a community hub where everyone feels welcome. From Wellness Wednesdays to serving up good vibes daily, we’ve built a space that’s laid-back, intentional, and full of flavor. The support from HQ is unmatched, and the culture is real. We’ve built a strong leadership team, opened successfully, and are now expanding to Lafayette. Running a Cheba Hut is fun—but it’s also a lot of work. If you’re ready to be all in, you won’t find a better brand to grow with.” — Meredith Beck Wiggins, Owner/Operator Cheba Hut Baton Rouge, LA Franchise with Cheba Hut: https://bit.ly/4gn9fo1 https://lnkd.in/gFjXEdux

This is not a drill! After years of anticipation, Cheba Hut is finally opening in Uptown Minneapolis this November! 🥪🌿 From early buzz to construction delays, this shop has been a long time coming, and we couldn’t be more stoked to bring our toasted subs and laid-back vibe to 1118 W. Lake Street. Homies in the City of Lakes have been patient, and thanks to new franchise partners (and hometown heroes) Nick Reckinger and Matt Alexander, this shop is finally sparking to life. Uptown, get ready. The wait is almost over, and the subs are worth it. 📖 Read more from Minneapolis/St. Paul Business Journal (MSPBJ) at this link: https://lnkd.in/gBCh56i3
