West Seattle restaurants: Westwood Village Wingstop ‘soft-opens’ Thursday

The Wingstop in Westwood Village will open this week. We’ve just confirmed that it will start by “soft-opening” around noontime this Thursday (August 4th); the official grand opening is set for the weekend of August 27th and 28th. At some point during that weekend, we’re told, the franchise’s owner Richard Sherman will be on hand – yes, THAT Richard Sherman, as in Seahawks star, but the company’s not sure exactly when yet. Official hours will be 11 am-11 pm Sundays through Thursdays, 11 am-midnight on Fridays. Wingstop is in the space west of 24-Hour Fitness that was long home to Eats Market Café; it’s been 13 months since we first reported that Eats was closing and Wingstop was on the way.

    Awesome news!  Can’t wait to frequent this place,  Richard Sherman is an amazing human being.

    Now it will be even more convenient to skip the gym and eat fried chicken instead!

    WSB……any word if the former Eats owners did actually open up a new place? 

Sorry, comment time is over.
