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 — and in early 2024, a second outpost opened in Golden. Each order of wings gets grilled, adding a deep, smoky essence and a charred caramelization to the skin before the bird is doused in one of ten sauces. Golden exclusives include a full tavern license and selection of agave spirits, as well as regular appearances of the joint's fabled Snipeburger.
