MARLBORO – An application will be heard by the Marlboro Planning Board that proposes to raze the TGI Fridays restaurant at Route 9 north and Union Hill Road and replace it with a Zinburger Wine and Burger Bar restaurant.
The application is scheduled to be heard at 7:30 p.m. March 7 at Marlboro Town Hall, 1979 Township Drive.
The applicant, Briad Development, LLC, licenses and operates TGI Fridays, Wendy’s and Zinburger restaurants in several states. Briad Development is represented by attorney Richard Schkolnick.
The application to be heard on March 7 will propose the demolition of the existing TGI Fridays restaurant and the construction of a 5,595-square-foot Zinburger restaurant with an enclosed 820-square-foot patio area.
The plan calls for 209 total seats for the restaurant (152 interior seats and 57 patio seats). The restaurant will also have 17 indoor bar seats and eight outdoor bar seats. Plans call for minor changes to the existing curbs and sidewalks at the restaurant site.
TGI Fridays shares a parking lot with ShopRite, Koy Turkish Grill, Home Depot and Dollar Tree. The parking lot has 1,378 parking spaces, with 79 spaces designated for commuter parking. No changes to the parking lot are proposed in connection with the construction of Zinburger.
