Chip Shots Announces They Are Temporarily Closed Due To Construction

Back in February, our team wrote about a few changes coming to the popular spot in town called Chip Shots.  If you haven't enjoyed this spot yet in the old Shopko North at 3708 N Broadway Ave. Suite 140, you can currently find 3 pickleball courts, 6 sports simulators, ping pong, a full service bar and kitchen, and a spot to play bean bags.

According to the Facebook post shared by Chip Shots on March 31st, 2026, renovations have started.

Today (3/31) we’re closing for construction as we kick off renovations and step into a new era of @chipshotsmn . New vibes. New menu. New look.
We’ve got some incredible additions on the way; stay tuned over the next month or so
We’ll see you all Wednesday.

When Is Chip Shots Reopening?

Looking through all of the photos of the food served at Chip Shots, I'm glad this is a short closing for renovations.  As they wrote in their post, they will be opening up again on Wednesday, April 1st.  (Hopefully that isn't an April Fool's joke...but I guess we shall see.)
