Ready for a 9-Patty Burger? Jake’s Wayback Burgers to Open in Woodbury
The burger shop plans to to open this year. The Woodbury Jake’s Wayback Burgers will be the first in Minnesota.
The home of the “triple triple” is coming to Woodbury.
Jake’s Wayback Burgers—which features a nine-patty concoction—is planning to open at 8470 City Centre Drive, where Kelly Gallery is now located.
The framing shop is moving to a currently vacant space next door to the City Centre Caribou Coffee.
The Woodbury location will be the first Jake’s Wayback Burgers to open in Minnesota, said Gillian Maffeo, director of marketing. But the company is eyeing other spots in the state.
“We’re expanding like crazy,” Maffeo said.
The menus vary by location, but all feature signature burgers and sandwiches, fries and onion rings, hotdogs, a variety of shakes and “Irish nachos,” Maffeo said.
An opening date for the Woodbury location hasn’t been set, she said, but it will open sometime this year.
The company was founded in 1991 as Jake’s Hamburgers with a single restaurant in Newark, DE, according to its website. Jake’s Hamburgers changed its name to Jake’s Wayback Burgers in August 2010, and there are several locations across the country.

I think I just felt my cholesteral rise...
Actually, the parking there doesn't seem adequate for another restaurant.

That is a monstrous burger for sure. I'm usually OK when I pop over to Subway for lunch, but it's never an empty lot or anything.

I suspect a restaurant will generate much more vehicle traffic than the framing studio. Then again, I'm not a city planner.

Probably. And Don Kelly told me today he expects a lot more walk-up traffic at his new spot: http://patch.com/A-2Mgt
