Fate led to a new expansion opportunity for Westminster's CD's Wings.
"Everything just fell into place," says Dean Copeland, who will soon be running two new locations of CD's Wings, a Westminster spot that recently landed on our 2023 list ofCD's originally opened in 2003 in a much smaller space than its current home."Two of my hockey coaches owned it previously," recalls Digger Schwartz, who began working there that year at the age of eighteen and now owns the business with his wife, Ryan.
Copeland, whose culinary career includes serving as the opening bar manager for the now-closed Beast + Bottle, had spent years working for Wingstop in the southeast region of the country."I was traveling way too much," he says. Wanting to slow down and spend more time with his wife, he decided to return to Denver.
When he arrived for that first meeting, around 2 p.m. on a weekday afternoon, CD's"was packed," he recalls."I asked Digger if he wanted to reschedule since they were so busy, and he said, 'This isn't really that busy.'" Instead of finding one perfect location, though, Copeland found two. He expects to open at 6710 Cornerstar Way in Aurora by the end of the month; soon after, he'll add another at 11211 South Dransfeldt Drive in Parker. The new locations are similar in size to the original CD's and will focus more on takeout business than dine-in, but the wing menu will remain the same.
