Leesburg’s new Wingstop officially opens for business

The new Wingstop in Leesburg officially opened its doors today and the restaurant’s team was greeted by a sizable crowd.

When The Burn stopped by this evening, the small dining room area was crowded and a steady stream of customers were picking up carryout orders as well.

As regular readers know, Wingstop has gone into the Battlefield Shopping Center off Edwards Ferry Road NE. It took over the spot that was previously Sweetz Bakery.

That shopping center has seen a lot of activity lately.

A new Sprouts Farmers Market grocery store and a Boot Barn apparel shop recently opened there. Meanwhile, a Petco store is coming soon as well.

The Wingstop in Leesburg is the second Loudoun location for the national brand. The first one opened more than a decade ago — in 2013 — in Sterling.
