Wayback Burgers Re-Opens in East Windsor

EAST WINDSOR, CT — After a temporary closure while undergoing a change of ownership, the Wayback Burgers restaurant at 137 Prospect Hill Road is re-opening Friday, Dec. 1.

The Route 5 location had closed Nov. 5, with a sign in the doorway indicating there are other Wayback locations in Granby and West Hartford.

"We were in the process of taking over the location as a Corporate Store and we wanted to make sure we did not set any expectations as we were not aware of any concrete timeline. In that case, we felt that in terms of our messaging to customers, less is more," said Alison Cole, store support coordinator at the franchise's headquarters in Cheshire. "We love the East Windsor community and we love this restaurant's location and we are happy to be back and open and able to serve East Windsor and beyond. We are proud to be a Connecticut-run business and part of many communities around Connecticut."

In celebration of the re-opening, the restuarant is having a customer appreciation weekend with special offers in store each day – starting Friday.

• Free samples of house-made chips all weekend long with any purchase.
• Friday, Dec. 1 - Buy One Get One Free offer on the Cheeeeesy Burger, a cross between a grilled cheese sandwich and a cheeseburger.
• Saturday, Dec. 2 - Buy One Get One Free offer on the Double Bacon Burger.
• Sunday, Dec. 3 - 2 for $5 Hot Dog special.

In addition to burgers, Wayback carries menu items such as hot dogs, chicken sandwiches, cheesesteaks, salads and more, plus 11 flavors of milkshakes, all hand-dipped and made right in front of the customer.
