Donnie Wahlberg is welcoming guests to share a meal at the Reagan family’s dining table.
On Tuesday, Feb. 25, the Blue Bloods star, 55, announced that an Illinois location of Wahlburgers — the fast-casual restaurant chain he founded with brothers Mark and chef Paul Wahlberg — will temporarily house the prop for group dinners, which are now available to reserve.
The centerpiece of the CBS show, which ended last December after 14 seasons, is now located at the Wahlburgers in St. Charles, Ill. for a limited time, Donnie announced in a Feb. 25 Instagram video. Donnie and his wife Jenny McCarthy live in the Chicago suburb of St. Charles.
“This is the actual table with the actual stuff,” Donnie said while showing off the Reagans’ wooden dining set in an Instagram video. “This is the actual glass that I drank out of on Blue Bloods and this is the actual chair that I sat in for 14 years of TV history making incredible memories with my castmates, and now it’s your chance to come and make some incredible memories of your own.”
Fans of Blue Bloods can reserve a dinner at the TV table through an online form now and, Donnie will also be available to join the dining experience on select dates, the star announced.
“And the best part,” Donnie told fans, is that all net proceeds from the dinners will go to two charities: the Detectives’ Endowment Association’s Widows’ and Children’s Fund, a charitable fund that supports the families of New York police officers who died in the line of duty, as well as Northwestern Medicine’s Cancer Center Delnor.
“Let’s make some memories, and a little history of our own, for two great causes,” the actor wrote in the caption of his announcement post. “Make your reservations now, at the link in my bio! See you there! 🫡💙❤️.”
Viewers of the hit CBS series, which also starred Tom Selleck and Bridget Moynahan, rushed to the comments to express their excitement about the opportunity — and ask Donnie whether he plans to attend the dinners as himself, or his on-screen counterpart, Danny Reagan.
“Wait what? We can book dinner with you? That’s amazeballs,” one fan wrote. “Guess I need to plan a Chicago trip then eh?”
“But will you be dressed as Danny Reagan,” another asked. “That’s the question.”
Still others asked the actor to bring the iconic table to other locations, including Boston, where the upcoming Blue Bloods spinoff is set to take place.
The forthcoming series — which is tentatively titled Boston Blue — was announced earlier this month. According to an official synopsis, the spinoff will see Wahlberg’s Danny, a long-time NYPD officer, take a position with Boston PD. “Once in Boston, he is paired with detective Lena Peters, the eldest daughter of a prominent law enforcement family,” per the synopsis.
This summer, Donnie joins his New Kids on the Block bandmates — members Joey McIntyre, Danny Wood and brothers Jonathan and Jordan Knight — as they stage their first Las Vegas residency at the Dolby Live at Park MGM. Named “The Right Stuff” after their 1988 hit song, the shows will run in three sessions from June 20-July 5 and Nov. 1-15, 2025 and Feb 14-28, 2026.
