Shoppers and diners at Northlake Mall will have even more options this summer at the DeKalb County retail center, mall management says.

A new full-service restaurant and a specialty shoe store join the recently opened Subway and T-Mobile stores.

Fork in the Road, located near the main mall entrance, will spice up food choices when it opens in September. Its fresh fare includes burgers, fried chicken and salads for lunch and dinner. All sauces and salad dressings will be made from scratch daily. 

The specialty store Elevenup Shoes, which is already open, offers brands that include Barefoot Tess, Gwyneth Shoes and J Rene. It features high fashion shoes and caters to women who wear size 11 and up. Elevenup is located in a 633-square-foot store on the upper level near the mall entrance.

Mall manager Marie Moore announced the addition of the eatery and shoe store in a July 12 statement.

“We strive to offer the best options for our shoppers, and the addition of these specialty stores will enhance the shopping experience at Northlake Mall,” Moore said. “As always, we look forward to the continuing expansion of our offerings to better serve our shoppers.”

The mall estimates that there are at least 20 new employees among all of the stores.

Fork in the Road and Elevenup join Subway, the world’s largest sub sandwich chain, and T-Mobile, the fourth-largest wireless carrier in the United States with more than 33 million customers and America’s largest 4G network, at Northlake.

Subway is now open in the Food Garden, and the 957-square-foot T-Mobile store is open near Chick-fil-A in the Food Garden.

Northlake Mall features more than 115 specialty stores, including anchors Kohl’s, Macy’s, Sears and jcpenney and is an integral part of the Northlake Community Alliance, a business and homeowners organization instrumental in beautifying the community.
