After walking into Bredwell, you might mistake it for a familiar fast-food franchise.
You might even be tempted to bark out an order.
Meats, garnishes and other ingredients sit in trays at a food bar, ready to be mixed into a meal. Above the serving station are helpful ordering instructions.

Located at 140 S. Cook St. in downtown Barrington, Bredwell is, in the words of co-founder and Vice President Lisa Shade, a “Chipotle for dogs.”
The business opened in mid-November and will host a dog-friendly grand opening from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Saturday.
It offers locally sourced, nutritious meals tailored to each dog’s individual needs and preferences. Patrons can customize and purchase individual meals at the store or order a two-week supply of meal kits at www.bredwell.com.
