Wahlbergs opening aptly named burger jointBrothers Mark and Donnie Wahlberg are opening a burger joint together called … wait for it … Wahlburgers. According to The Boston Herald, the brothers, including chef Paul Wahlberg, have secured their awesome name, as well as a lease on a 4,300 square foot space. The burger joint will be installed near their Italian restaurant, Alma Nove, at Hingham Shipyard. Hingham Shipyard, of course, is in Boston. The name Wahlburgers was previously trademarked, so it was a bit of work obtaining “full spectrum” use of the name, Ed St. Croix, Paul Wahlberg’s business partner, told The Herald. Oddly, there was already a “Wahlburger” being sold by New York burger chain Tom Wahl’s. But it was worth the extra effort. Wahlbergers! The new burger joint will seat about 80 inside and 40 on an outdoor patio. Older brother Paul will serve as Wahlberger’s chef. |

When will the wahlberg brothers male on male buttLove tapes be released?
BACK WHEN MARK WAHLBERG WAS MARKY MARK..
man these guys are not aging well
Hingham Shipyard is so far from Boston I have never been to Hingham. And, it really isn't a destination for Bostonians. Sort of like saying Buffalo is in NYC.
ARE THESE GUYS IDIOTS?
Yes they are!
Millions of People cant stand these 2 and will never eat at thier dive
And Im one of them

They should probably put more burgers on it, otherwise it might be called Wah Burger
So which is it? Wahlburgers or Wahlbergers?
And I believe Hingham Shipyard is in Hingham. Or so I've heard.
Great job on doing research for this story!
Hingham Shipyard, of course, is in Hingham- not Boston
After reading the headline I was thinking... they're calling it "Greasey"?
Looks like a road trip is in order once it opens...i really like mark and donnie...mark was bad ass in the sniper...donnie was just plain scary in the sixth sence as he was the drugged out dude in the beginning of the film....but mark is more flexible in his acting than some...keanu and nick cage come to mind as horrible actors but people love them for some reason...mark i love u kisses
If Marky Mark's cooking skills are the same as his acting skills, be prepared for some food poisoning.
Yo! Word to your mother!
The Hingham shipyard is not in Boston. It in Hingham, Massachusetts, south of Boston, next to
the City of Quincy
Hingham Shipyard, of course, is in Hingham. Not BOSTON. About 20 miles south.
Hamburgers rule. Don't forget the extra bacon! Marky Mark for president.
Boy his brother is UGLY!
Think it's great they are keeping it all in the family.I love to see family getting along like this. Too many families are disfunctional or not speaking to one another. Best of luck to them.
I would go to that burger joint just to get some of that Wahlberg beef! Mmmm. Yummy
"Hingham Shipyard, of course, is in Boston." Ummm, actually, no it isn't. It is in HIngham MA, about 30 minutes south of Boston.
Ugh. No thanks. They shoulda named it "Thugburger". It's more fitting.
they both always been pretty good looking, just aging alil lol but ill have his wahlburger any day ahahhaahahaha
Actor Mark Wahlberg, formerly known as Marky Mark, and who is the youngest of nine children, is teaming up with his older brothers, New Kid on the Block Donnie Wahlberg, and chef Paul Wahlberg. http://bit.ly/nujoZ5

I LOVE THE NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK! AND SO DO ALL THE FANS THAT WENT TO THE SOLD OUT CONCERTS AND CRUISES IN 2009/10/11. I MISS THE 90'S!
....and the 90s miss you.

portalpunk was simply sharing the lyrics to Marky Mark aka Mark Wahlberg's 1 hit "Good Vibrations" .. not trying to rap.
This story says the name of Wahlberg's restaurant is Wahlburgers ... then Walbergers ... then Wahlburgers again (while also talking about a completely different restaurant called Wahlburger...) so, what's it going to be, CNN, with your awesome editing once again (I mean, really?) Wahlburgers or Wahlbergers?
The brothers last name is Wahlberg. Name of the restraunt will be Wahlburgers. They had an issue with the name Wahlburger cause there was a burger already with that name at another restraunt. Then they said congrats to the Wahlberg brothers. Simple enough?
to Kyla: If you didn't have such a low i.q. (which is presumably evident for your negligence/stupidity in not reading for context), you would have understood that there is a TM issue with the name "Wahlburgers" which the Whalbergs were attempting to obtain for TM rights. To prevent any issue of TM infringement or initial confusion (Under the Lanham Act), they applied for TM protection on "Whalbergers" while also getting the name registered. That doesn't necessarily preclude them from getting sued from the owners of the TM Whalburgers (which is a different issue). Anyways, the point is, read for context before you divulge on impulse and allege such frivolous allegations which have no conclusive support or evidence to back up your idiotic claim re editing.

Yeah,thanks for that. Except CNN has now changed the original story as they so often do. Your own intelligent response has been duly noted.
Oh... and they STILL spell Wahlburgers Wahlbergers (when referencing the chef, for example). So while you're making personal attacks on me, somewhat unnecessarily in my view, the issue with the editing still stands. It's not the end of the world, we all make mistakes, but I would love it if CNN were a touch more consistent with their editing. On the other hand, I think that's the problem with constant web-writing: things do slip through in a way that they likely would not in a more traditional news room.
What is the main combo meal going to be called? Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch.
The main hamburger of the place could be called the Marky Mark and the the fries and the drink are the Funky Bunch.
If I lived where Walhburgers will be at I would like to go to eat there.
Marky Mark looks like an APE
another jealous one!!!!
They're both gross!! Yuck, esp. Donnie and I always thought Mark was funny looking.
Hingham Shipyard is, of course, in Hingham. Not Boston. Maybe google maps next time.
Beat me to it. Hingham Shipyard isn't remotely in Boston. It's near Boston (half hour – 45 minute drive, depending on traffic), but it's also just as close to Cape Cod.
Wahlburgers sounds like internet slang for something dirty.

Marky Mark needs to invest in more acting lessons. Oh right that won't help because he still wouldn't know how to act.
I'm sure you'll give him a few pointers, having such successful thespian accolades, oh wait......you didn't show us your Oscar or Tony or Emmy. I'm sure once you win one, you can criticize him all you want.
Oh Marky Mark can act ... as himself that's it. I don't need to be a thespian to know that. Who got nominated and won an Oscar for the Fighter... Christian Bale ... because Marky Mark can't act.
II'm sure all you fine people out there who rag on this guy because of his (lack of) acting skills are quite happy with your weekly paychecks. I wouldn't mind not acting and getting paid like that...
Make fun of him all you want, because he is laughing too ... all the way to the bank.
Walhberg MADE The Departed and got an Academy Award nomination for best supporting actor. He was the $h!t.
I very much like him in movies. I don't think he is super versatile or anything, but I like him. He is believable and pics good roles for his skill set.
The Perfect Storm
Rock Star
Shooter
Four Brothers
We Own The Night
.....the list goes on an on. I can't think of a movie he's been in that I didn't like.
Ah, your just jealous!
I would like my wahlburger raw and strait from the source...YUM!
You may want to google an image of Paul Wahlberg before saying that...seeing as how he is the chef... der.
It's such a good vibration
It's such a sweet sensation
Yo it's about that time
to bring forth the rhythm and the rhyme
I'm a get mine so get yours
I wanna see sweat comin' out your pores
On the house tip is how I'm swinging this
strictly hip hop boy I ain't singing this
Bringing this to the entire nation
black, white, red, brown
feel the vibration
A awesome period song....
enjoy your Wahlburger, OK? Say hi to your mother for me.
lmao, oh I love it! Thank you!
You mean dispensing a kardashian onto the grill?
