So Culver’s indeed is coming to Wayland?

A Facebook post this evening on Wayland Community Chatter said, “We are excited to announce that Culver’s will be coming to the Wayland Community in the early fall. We are looking to hire managers to start training in our locations in either Caledonia or Allendale.”

Word on the street is that the restaurant will be located at 1180 West Superior St., at the former site of the Elias Brothers Big Boy Restaurant. Rumors of this move have been rampant for several years, ever since Big Boy closed. There were reports that negotiations were stalled after the death of the manager of the Big Boy.
