One of the first new openings will take place in mid-January when Tangled Roots Brewing Company opens in The Arboretum of South Barrington. Known for their craft beer with hops and barley grown on a family farm in Ottawa, the restaurant will feature frequently evolving menus combining traditional favorites with more adventurous local dishes, all given a chef “twist.” The promise of high-quality cuisine comes with a down-to-earth vibe befitting their small-town roots. It will be the fifth location for Tangled Roots, which also has restaurants in Ottawa, Glenview, Lockport and Vernon Hills.

The Arb will also welcome another new restaurant when The Greggory Hearth and Tavern opens. Centered around live-fire cooking in an open kitchen, the menu will feature prime cuts of beef, fresh seafood and homemade pastas. The Greggory is led by seasoned industry veterans from the Gibsons Restaurant and Rosewood Steakhouse Groups. Their website says they’ll be open in January.

The long-awaited opening of HopScotch in Schaumburg will happen this summer. The British pub-themed restaurant concept will serve a diverse menu of food items, including English, Indian, Portuguese and American dishes. Despite these eclectic food offerings, the restaurant’s name is a reference to the types of alcoholic beverage — including “hops” and scotch — in which it plans to specialize. HopScotch is at 40 S. Roselle Road.
