St. Charles City Council OKs Wahlburgers
The Wahlburgers will be located on an outlot in front of the Meijer at the southwest corner of Route 38 and Randall Road.

ST. CHARLES, IL – The state of Illinois will get its first Wahlburgers and the restaurant will go up right in St. Charles. The city council on Monday approved the project, which will be located on the southwest corner of Route 38 and Randall Road on an outlot of the Meijer store property.
Donnie Wahlberg, who bought a house in St. Charles with his wife, Jenny McCarthy, in recent years told the city council on Monday he is looking forward to operating his family's business in "a town that treats me like everyone else," according to the Kane County Chronicle. The restaurant's focus, he said, would be "good food, good times and good memories."
“We're going to do our best to make you proud,” he told city officials.
