Off the Wahl
Burgers. Tater Tots. Donnie Wahlberg.
We have to give you credit.
You always thought there’d be a Wahlberg burger shop in the area. And people always said you were
crazy.
It’s time to say, “I told you so.”
Presenting
Wahlburgers, your new
120-seat house of
straightforward Wahlberg-ian burger adoration, opening tomorrow in Hingham.
Sure, the concept of beseeching Mark or Donnie Wahlberg for a
triple-decker
burger would understandably raise eyebrows (although after
Band of Brothers, Donnie can do no
wrong in our book). But consider this: the operation itself is being helmed by their brother Paul, a chef
who has
served you well in Hingham before.
So the next time you’re taking your sailboat for a ride (and by sailboat we also mean car) and you get the
urge for a
BBQ Bacon Burger or a
Thanksgiving Burger (packed with turkey, stuffing, squash
and cranberry sauce), you’ll dock at the Hingham Shipyard, beeline it in here and belly up to the
bar.
While you call for tater tots and hot dogs (go for the
Stray Dog with sriracha and smoked tomato
salsa), you’ll wash down your memories of the Wahlbergs (heightened by a few oversized pictures of the
brothers) with a made-to-order adult frappe.
And possibly the Funky Bunch.
