COLUMBUS, OH (April 7, 2025) – Charleys Cheesesteaks is excited to announce the grand opening of the newest location in Jacksonville, FL. This opening marks number eight for the city of Jacksonville.
The newest location of Charleys Cheesesteaks & Wings is owned by Maged Ebied, who owns six other Charleys storefronts in Jacksonville & Saint Augustine. Throughout the years, Maged’s partnership with Charleys has only gotten stronger. Maged first discovered Charleys in June 2019 while swimming with his family. He received a phone call from a franchisee inviting him to a Grand Opening for another Charleys location. After a successful turnout, Maged’s journey with Charleys began shortly after in December 2019 when he opened his first location inside Countryside Mall in Clearwater, FL. Since then, he has opened various locations in the Tampa market, before uprooting and focusing on the Jacksonville, St. Augustine markets. Maged has plans to continue expansion throughout North FL and has plans for two additional locations in Jacksonville in the upcoming months.
“I’m very excited to open our newest Charleys Cheesesteaks & Wings and share our passion for quality food and genuine service with the Jacksonville community,” said Owner Maged Ebied. “We’re honored to offer a warm, welcoming experience for the neighborhood while serving up delicious cheesesteaks, wings, and lemonade to everyone who walks through our doors. I want to put a smile on everyone’s face just as Charleys has done for me.”
The newest Charleys location is located at 1401 Dunn Avenue Jacksonville, FL 32218 and will be open at 10am every day.
“We’re incredibly proud to welcome the newest Charleys location in Jacksonville to our family of 800+ locations across the globe,” said Cody Caplette, a Charleys Franchise Business Consultant. “This opening marks a significant milestone for our brand as we continue to expand and share our commitment to quality and guest satisfaction. It is so exciting to see our vision of serving fresh, made-to-order cheesesteaks reaching even more communities, and we’re confident the new store in Jacksonville will be a great success for both our franchisee and the organization.”
