This spot will keep you coming back because once you’ve tasted this magic, nothing else feels quite the same.

It’s a newish chain, but it’s very good.

It is my personal favorite wing chain, and it beats Buffalo Wild Wings any day every day, and twice on Monday/Tuesday, cause it’s a 60c/wing day.

Pros

  • Wings are not the biggest size, but much bigger than Buffalo Wild Wings. You almost never get a small wing.
  • Wingstop wings are usually fried well and crispy, not as soggy as BWW.
  • Fries are good enough, but not Five Guys good. Sometimes soggy. Much better than b-dubs though!
  • Some people say the rubs are too salty, but I actually like them just the way they are. My favorites are Lemon Pepper and Louisiana. For a list of other rubs, see Best Wingstop Flavors and Sauces.
  • If it’s not a 60-cent day, they can be pricy: $20 for 6 small boneless wings and 5 tenders and 2 sides of fries.
  • If you order pickup, it’s (almost) always on time.
  • The servers are masked.

If all you ever had were wings from Dominos, Pizza Hut, or Papa Johns, you’ll be blown away.

PS. Their ranch dressing is superb!
