Wendy’s Opens On Brighton Beach Avenue

The Baconator has come to Brighton Beach.

Wendy’s opened its new location Thursday at 621 Brighton Beach Avenue, right below the Brighton Beach subway station. Residents and visitors can now stop by the fast food franchise’s new location to score a frosty on their way to the beach. Or enjoy a meal on the second floor seating area while watching the street traffic below.

The property used to house Brighton King Meats, which closed sometime last year. However, plans to move a Wendy’s into the space may have been going on for quite a while. An application to convert the building’s second floor into a dining space was filed with the Department of Buildings in January, 2014.
