Raising Cane’s Chicken Fingers ― the popular, Louisiana-based fast food chain known for its chicken, Cane’s Sauce and Texas Toast ― will continue expanding in Wisconsin in 2025.
Raising Cane’s opened its first Wisconsin restaurant on downtown Madison’s State Street in 2021 and now has four locations in the state — in Brookfield, Greendale and Kenosha, in addition to Madison.
With at least three more Wisconsin locations in the works, where is Raising Cane’s coming next?
Here’s what to know:
Raising Cane’s is coming to Eau Claire, Janesville and La Crosse
Raising Cane’s will soon open locations in three Wisconsin cities: Eau Claire, Janesville and La Crosse.
According to the company website, the Eau Claire location at 3631 Gateway Drive is set to open on Dec. 3. The Janesville restaurant at 3030 Milton Ave. is expected to follow on Jan. 14.
Raising Cane’s has also recently secured a site in the La Crosse area for a restaurant scheduled to open next summer, a company representative told the Journal Sentinel. There are multiple job listings on the Raising Cane’s careers site for a restaurant at State 16 and Braund Street in Onalaska, just outside of La Crosse.
Finally, according to a previous Journal Sentinel article, Raising Cane’s plans to open a restaurant in Oak Creek in December 2025, but the exact address has yet to be finalized.
Is Raising Cane’s coming to Milwaukee?
While the Raising Cane’s representative didn’t provide any concrete plans for expansion into Milwaukee, she did express the company’s interest in coming to the city.
“At Raising Cane’s, we’re always looking for vibrant communities where we can make a meaningful impact, and the greater Milwaukee area fits that description perfectly,” she said.
“We’re excited to bring our passionate team and crave-able menu to more of the Milwaukee area and continue growing in this amazing state.”
Raising Cane’s opened three Wisconsin restaurants in the past year
Raising Cane’s recently opened three locations in southeastern Wisconsin. In December, the Kenosha restaurant at 6303 75th St. opened its doors.
Then, over the summer, two restaurants opened in the Milwaukee suburbs. Raising Cane’s Greendale at 5250 S. 76th St. opened July 30 with a grand opening event and a free food giveaway. The Greendale location was first proposed in March 2023.
Next, the Brookfield restaurant at 12660 W. Capitol Drive opened Sept. 5 with a ribbon-cutting ceremony and more giveaways.
How many Raising Cane’s restaurants are there?
Raising Cane’s has locations in nearly every U.S. state, as well as in Guam and Washington D.C. The company representative said the chain is set to open 100 restaurants in 2024, marking the first year it will open that many.
By year’s end, Raising Cane’s will have nearly 900 restaurants. According to the representative, the chain plans to open about 100 additional locations in 2025.

Carrington scores 18 points to lead Wisconsin’s 78-45 throttling of Maryland
MADISON (AP) — Reserve Braeden Carrington scored 18 points, John Blackwell scored 14 points and Wisconsin poured it on in the second half to dismantle Maryland 78-45 on Wednesday night.
Nick Boyd scored 13 points and reserve Austin Rapp scored 11 points for Wisconsin (21-9, 13-6 Big Ten), which had 11 players enter the scoring column.
The Badgers’ Andrew Rohde passed out six of Wisconsin’s 15 assists and didn’t commit a turnover. Wisconsin turned it over only three times.
Andre Mills scored 14 points and Elijah Saunders scored 11 points for Maryland.
Wisconsin turned an already commanding 34-21 first-half stranglehold into a 21-point lead 5 1/2 minutes into the second half. The Badgers shot 48% (27 of 56) and made 42% (13 of 31) from 3-point range. The Badgers scored 44 second-half points.
It was the fewest point Maryland (11-19, 4-15) has ever posted against Wisconsin in the shot-clock era. It was also Maryland’s lowest point total of the season.
Wisconsin has won five of its last seven. Maryland has lost five of its last six.

Flood Safety Week runs March 9-13 as Wisconsin braces for a spring swell
(WLUK) — As winter thaws, Wisconsinites are encouraged to think about preparing for potential flooding.
Gov. Evers has declared March 9 -13 as Flood Safety Week in Wisconsin.
During Flood Safety Awareness Week, ReadyWisconsin is asking everyone to review their flooding risk and take proactive steps to protect their families, homes, and businesses before waters rise.
- Know your flood risk. Assess the potential for flooding on your property if you live in a flood plain, near a body of water, or have a basement. Plan with your family for what you will do if the floodwaters begin to rise.
- Consider flood insurance. Most homeowner, rental, and business insurance policies generally do not cover flooding. Don’t wait until it’s too late. Most flood coverage requires 30 days to take effect. Find more information about flood insurance options here.
- Move valuables or mementos out of the basement and store them in waterproof containers.
- Elevate or flood-proof your washer, dryer, water heater, and HVAC systems. Relocate electrical outlets to three feet above the floor.
- Have copies of important documents (personal identification like passports and birth certificates, medical records, insurance policies, and financial documents) in a waterproof container.
- Build a “Go Kit.” Include items such as food, water, cash, and medications.
- Make an emergency plan. If you can’t make it home or need to leave quickly, identify a meeting place for your family. Make a list of emergency numbers and important contacts.
- Keep water out of and away from your house. Clean gutters regularly, direct downspouts away from your foundation, repair cracks in your foundation, improve grading so water flows away from your house, and cover window wells.
When flooding occurs, keep the following steps in mind:
- Stay up to date on the forecast. Identify multiple ways to receive alerts about dangerous weather conditions and potential flooding, such as a NOAA Weather Radio, trusted local news outlets, and mobile weather apps. Enable Wireless Emergency Alerts on your smartphones.
- Never drive or walk through flooded areas. Just six inches of fast-moving water can sweep adults off their feet, while just 12 inches can carry away a small car or 24 inches for larger vehicles. Moving water is not the only danger, your vehicle could potentially stall when driving through floodwater.
BE THE FIRST TO COMMENT
Flooding could potentially impact your health as well. Avoid entering floodwaters, which can contain bacteria from human and animal waste, sharp objects, hazardous chemicals, downed power lines, and other dangerous items. If your home floods, follow cleaning and disinfection guidelines to avoid mold growth.
