ABOUT SCRATCHBOARD KITCHEN:
Restaurant Concept:
Upscale casual restaurant in downtown Arlington Heights serving simple yet elevated scratch-made farm to table fare, coffee, fresh pressed juice, and alcoholic beverages.
Our Vision:
The restaurant will aim to serve as a community gathering place for family and friends to comfortably enjoy time together while sharing a carefully crafted and beautifully presented meal.

The space provides a cozy yet refined environment, consisting of warm, earthy tones to create a comfortable and inviting atmosphere. Our goal for the menu is to provide upgraded classic favorites made primarily from organic, locally sourced ingredients.
