Casual burgers, fries, mac 'n' cheese, NKOTB memorabilia























"Wahlburgers, the chain from famous brothers Mark, Paul, and Donnie Wahlberg, in 2019 opened its River North location to much fanfare. It permanently closed in early 2021. A location in suburban St. Charles, where Donnie Wahlberg lives with wife Jenny McCarthy, remains open." - Naomi Waxman

"The long-awaited Wahlburgers in St. Charles is slated to open by early April at 825 S. Randall Road, marking the chain’s second Chicago-area location after River North." - Naomi Waxman

"This celebrity-family chain offers approachable, 'funky' burger concoctions—example combinations include barbecue bacon with white cheddar, jalapeños, house-made barbecue sauce, and avocado spread—positioned as a casual Loop escape. Fries are thick and skin-on with a hot, smooth interior and firm exterior, while thin, crispy onion rings deliver an intensely crunchy, novelty-style experience." - Jeffy Mai

"Construction began this week on the second Chicago-area Wahlburgers location at 855 S. Randall Road in St. Charles." - Naomi Waxman

"The first suburban Illinois Wahlburgers location will break ground at Route 38 and Randall Road. Actor, co-owner, and St. Charles resident Donnie Wahlburg will reportedly be in attendance." - Naomi Waxman
