Planet Wings, which was a staple in Poughkeepsie until an electrical fire forced its owners to close in 2017, is set to reopen at a new location.
With the popular wing joint will come the new Pizza E Birra next door, on Main Street, which will feature a traditional Italian menu.
Both eateries will officially open their doors to the public on Monday, March 2.
The latest Planet Wings restaurant joins locations throughout the Hudson Valley and New Jersey. Currently, in New York, there are locations in Ardsley, Bardonia, Haverstraw, Middletown, Newburgh, Poughkeepsie, Spring Valley, Staten Island, Wappingers Falls, and White Plains.
Plans for the restaurants have been in the works for nearly two years. Planet Wings has been designed as more of a “grab-and-go” joint, while Pizza E Birra will seat more than 100 patrons with a full bar featuring craft beers.
The restaurants are expected to create more than a dozen local jobs. They are currently accepting applications for bartenders, servers, and cooks.
