Coming Soon: Delong's Deluxe

The restaurant is under construction at the corner of Bridgeport Way and Steilacoom Boulevard Southwest. It will be a hamburger stand with walk-up service and outdoor seating.

Good news, Lakewood foodies. Looks like we're getting a hamburger stand.

Lakewood City Manager Andrew Neiditz included this juicy morsel in his weekly report last week:

The new construction on the corner of Bridgeport Way SW and Steilacoom Blvd SW is for Delong’s Deluxe, a hamburger stand with walk-up service and outdoor seating.  In addition to hamburgers, Delong’s Deluxe will serve fries, sodas, milkshakes and ice cream.  The site is also designed to accommodate a future espresso stand in a separate building.

Mmmm. Fries, shakes and milkshakes. Sounds good.

I'll get more details, including when it's expected to open, but we want to hear from you, Lakewood. Are you excited for the opening of Delong's Deluxe? Tell us in the comments below.

Despite your protestations to the contrary Steve, the Lakewood City Council does have aRead More responsibility and has established precedent on such businesses. Lakewood Ordinance #358 (November, 2004) consisted of 22 pages that included references to statistics nation-wide concerning the harmful secondary effects of Sexually Oriented Businesses (SOB’s – Lakewood’s own designation) upon communities; findings of a variety of stakeholders including “representatives from businesses, educational institutions, community leaders, and representatives from the adult entertainment industry;” research and study by the Planning Advisory Board citing case law and neighboring city’s ordinances affecting adult entertainment facilities; and the resulting action, based on this research, found that “an improperly operated SOB can constitute a public or moral nuisance.” This research was conducted in keeping with Lakewood’s purpose “to protect, foster and support the goals and ideals of schools, religious and public service organizations serving the Lakewood community.”

And oh what about the HD when are they going to put an end to this and the Laws regarding this, MessRead More of nastiness. Bikini Baristas are not allowed to "Hand" you your drink,they have to put it on that ledge outside the window and all foods they sell must come prepackaged from the manufacturer ...... and there are other Laws & Rules they have to follow....... and believe me I watched them very carefully they step out of line once I was going to report them....... when the man in my life was working near the one that opened up by his place of employment I was watching Because I cared if my life was about to be changed.... I met with city hall to get the laws etc. I went to the HD to get the rules etc. And amazing the lies these gals taunt these men with to get these tips..... All I can say is be pro-active
Anyone in that area should visit them and find out more about them. I can tell you this: That clubRead More has a great time having fun and working at making our community better. Nice to see the City Council of Lakewood recognize them. You guys Rock.
