The grand opening of Wahlburgers newest location in Springfield had been delayed due to the COVID-19 Coronavirus pandemic.
The restaurant is located at the corner of Main and Union Streets and is the first Wahlburgers to open in Western Massachusetts.
Mayor Sarno states, "I want to applaud MGM Springfield President and COO Chris Kelley and his team for their continued commitment, and support of our Springfield. Thank you to the Wahlberg family, especially Chef Paul Wahlberg for his belief and investment in our City. Chef Paul is so humble, genuine, and very hospitable. This is going to be a big hit here in the City. I can personally say that the Our Burger, which is Paul's favorite, and the chili are delicious. Wahlburgers will complement my administration’s efforts to revitalizations our downtown and South End neighborhoods. Dining here will be a great time for anyone and everyone, especially for the kids. Welcome to Springfield Chef Paul and we're looking forward too many prosperous years!"
