EDWARDS \u2014 Larkburger is changing.<\/p>\n
The restaurant, which opened its first location in Edwards in 2006, recently announced the closure of six stores: Two in the Kansas City area, as well as locations in downtown Denver, in Denver’s Washington Park and University Hills areas and in Broomfield.<\/p>\n
According to a statement on the company’s website, the stores that were closed were “underperforming and financially holding us back from fully pursuing our evolution from Larkburger to Lark Spot.”<\/p>\n
That evolution is coming to the remaining Larkburger locations, including the original restaurant in Edwards.<\/p>\n
According to the company’s statement, the re-branded Lark Spot restaurants will be “a gathering place for friends and families\u2026”<\/p>\n
The re-branding will include DIY classes, movie nights and other events. The menu is also evolving, although you’ll still be able to get a Larkburger and truffle fries.<\/p>\n
According to an email from Robin Zimmerman of Sprocket Communications, which works with Larkburger, the new menu items will include sourdough sandwiches, shared plates and a veggie sandwich.<\/p>\n
While the re-branded Lark Spots will have similar themes, Zimmerman wrote that each restaurant will be tailored to the space and location of each store.<\/p>\n
The re-branding is expected to take place over the next six to nine months.<\/p>\n
