Midsummer Place shopping centre has confirmed it will welcome the American chicken chain, Wingstop to its newly refurbished Boulevard.

It will be located in the former Burger King unit next to Pret A Manger and will occupy the last remaining vacant location to fully complete The Boulevard food court, which offers national brands LEON and Starbucks as well as eight independent street food outlets such as Panda Woo, House of Sliders and Nero Pizza.

The Central Milton Keynes location has been confirmed as one of several sites that Lemon Pepper Holdings, the UK franchisee of US brand Wingstop, is planning to open in 2024, which also includes: Croydon, Essex, Dudley, and Leeds.

The brand, which makes wings, tenders, burgers, and sides cooked to order, currently operates over 40 UK branches.

Simon Martin, General Manager at Midsummer Place said: “It is wonderful to announce the confirmation that Wingstop will join Midsummer Place and will complete the Boulevard food and beverage offering. As we approach the finer and warmer weather, we will soon see the full potential of this area that has already become a popular destination for visitors wanting to try new and exciting world foods.”

The confirmation of Wingstop follows the recent announcement that the former Debenhams unit will be occupied by the Frasers Group’s Sports Direct and other brands as well as a Lane7 bowling and leisure offering.
