Applebee's preparing to open

A new restaurant will soon be open in Sidney.

Construction on an Applebee's – located on Cabela Drive, across from Buffalo Point Steakhouse & Grill and adjacent to Hampton Inn – is scheduled to wrap up in the coming weeks.

On Wednesday, crews installed a sign at the restaurant visible from Interstate 80.

Bradley Rowan, Sidney chief building inspector, said the location is set to open in early February. Construction at the site began last fall and was initially expected to be completed by the end of 2015.

The restaurant is 6,205 square feet and includes a private conference room.

Tom Linafelt, Applebee's senior manager of corporate communications, told the Sidney Sun-Telegraph in October that the site selection for the location was based on population and traffic, among other considerations.
