The 7,500-square-foot space on the east side of the mall next to Gap will feature a 900-square- foot, screened-in patio that will seat 50; the interior of the restau- rant will accommodate more than 300 patrons, including 18 at the bar. It will be the first Buffalo Wild Wings in Passaic County, and one among a handful in the area. And there’s potential for wagering on the side: In light of New Jersey’s legalizing sports gambling in June, the company recently announced that it will explore opportunities to offer sports betting on the premises. 10 FALL 2018 WAYNE MAGAZINE Woodland Park 5K SCARE HUNGER AWAY OCTOBER 28 This year, runners can get in the Halloween spirit early with the 5K SCARE HUNGER AWAY race through Garret Mountain 9 A.M.
