Wayback Burgers Coming to Middletown

MIDDLETOWN, CT — Wayback Burgers recently announced that its newest Connecticut location is coming to Middletown. The restaurant, which will be the chain’s 18th in Connecticut, will be located at 170 Main Street.

The restaurant is the first Wayback Burgers location owned and operated by local franchisees, Michael and Jessica Light, and will add about 15 new jobs to the local economy. It is slated to open this winter.

The new Wayback Burgers of Middletown will encompass a 1,344-square-foot design, “featuring a warm red barn board interior with white and stainless steel accents, modeled after the great American roadside burger joint, and will include free parking behind the restaurant,” according to a press release. Patio seating for al fresco dining will also be offered beginning in the spring.

“We are thrilled to announce the opening of our Wayback Burgers restaurant in Middletown,” Michael Light said in a press release. “We look forward to delivering excellent service and top notch burgers, fries, shakes and more in the Middletown area and beyond.”

John Eucalitto, president of Wayback Burgers, said “we are pleased to continue the expansion of the Wayback Burgers brand into Connecticut with the announcement of our Middletown restaurant. With steady debt-free growth, operations in 26 states and new locations opening at a rate of two per month, it’s an exciting time to be a part of the Wayback Burgers brand, and we wouldn’t be able to achieve this level of success without great franchise partners like Michael, Jessica and their team.”

According to the press release, Wayback Burgers offers “delicious, cooked-to-order burgers, available as a single, classic double, triple and triple triple (nine) patty, and rich, thick milkshakes, served in an environment that hearkens back to a simpler place and time – when ‘customer service’ meant something and everyone felt the warmth of the community. Going ‘way’ beyond the burger, Wayback Burgers offers crispy and grilled chicken sandwiches, veggie burgers, turkey burgers, fresh salads and delicious sides, including fries, onion rings and House-Made Chips.”
