King of Wings

King of Wings launched as a food truck before debuting a brick-and-mortar that doubles as a taphouse in 2020. A year and a half after its opening, a kitchen fire forced it to close, but after staying alive thanks to a successful Snipeburger smashburger pop-up, King of Wings came back better than ever in 2023 […]

CD’s Wings

The Aurora outpost of CD’s has room for a lot of wing fans – which is a good thing, since it tends to draw a big crowd regularly. And for good reason: Its deep-fried wings are available tossed in over twenty sauce options that range from totally mild choices like lemon pepper and teriyaki to […]

Fire on the Mountain

This wing joint with a jam-band soul opened in West Highland in 2012 and added a Wash Park outpost in 2019. Yes, the wings are on the small side; that’s because FOTM uses only cage-free, antibiotic-free chicken, along with making other environmentally conscious moves like composting all of its food scraps and recycling its cooking […]

Woody’s Wings 2

Woody’s kitchen does wings by the ten-count, in sauces that range from mild (pretty much just butter with a kiss of hot sauce) to hot (which isn’t that hot, but biting enough to call for a cool cup of blue-cheese dressing) to nuclear. The dining room is just a white box festooned with sports pennants, […]

CD’s Wings

With a large dining area plus a patio, CD’s has room for a lot of wing fans – which is a good thing, since it tends to draw a big crowd regularly. And for good reason: Its deep-fried wings are available tossed in over twenty sauce options that range from totally mild choices like lemon […]

The Wing Hut

This small family-owned spot has been specializing in wings for two decades, and the experience shows. The wings are on the smaller side, but with tender meat, a nice, crisp bite and a whopping 46 killer sauce and dry-rub options, size really doesn’t matter here. Not sure where to start? The garlic parmesan is a […]

Woody’s Wings N’ Things

Don’t let the name of this strip-mall joint (which is not affiliated with the Aurora or Arvada locations of Woody’s) fool you: This is one of the metro area’s best Asian eateries, in disguise. The menu – a literal binder – is full of dishes with roots in the Indochina peninsula, from duck larb to […]

Wingin’ It

This little storefront sports bar is the only local eatery serving fried Twinkies, a cardiologist’s nightmare. Sure, it makes other things — good chicken wings, for example, with an ungodly number of sauces (47, if you want to be specific) — but the fried Twinkies (and candy bars and bananas and funnel cake) are reason […]

Piper Inn

The Piper Inn looks like a biker bar – and it is. But it’s also an everyone-else bar. You can find your mom, your co-worker and dudes who ride Harleys all enjoying cold brews and house specialties like Chinese-style wings, burgers and carne asada fries. The bar, which opened in 1968, was named for the […]
