PHOENIX — Eegee’s long-anticipated return to metro Phoenix is right around the corner.
The popular Tucson-based fast food chain announced Tuesday its Gilbert location at the southwest corner of Baseline Road and Val Vista Drive will open next month.
A two-day job fair at the under construction location to hire more than 60 employees will happen Saturday and Sunday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.
A total of five Valley locations are expected to open in 2021.
The fast food chain previously had Valley locations but doesn’t have any as of now.
