50 best restaurants for chicken wings in the Charlotte region — a searchable guide
Editor’s note: National Wings Day is on July 29, and we thought, what better way to celebrate than with a full celebration of chicken wings in the Charlotte area?
When you think of chicken wings, what comes to mind? Maybe it’s an order of New-York style pizza and Buffalo wings with crisp celery and chunky blue cheese on the side from Bisonte’s Pizza in Charlotte, or a dozen hot wings and a pitcher of beer while catching the Sunday game at Kristopher’s Sports Bar & Restaurant in Matthews.
If you’re looking for just a few grilled chicken wings to whet your appetite alongside a craft cocktail, The Crunkleton could be your pick. Or you may not be able to choose between sweet or savory. If so, you’ll want to try chef Andarrio Johnson’s Peach Cobbler Waffle with wings at Cuzzo’s Cuisine.
Charlotte’s restaurants offer a wide variety of dining experiences, price points, preparation techniques, flavors and more to satisfy your cravings, including vegetarian or vegan wings served at restaurants such as Seoul Food Meat Co.
We know Charlotteans love wings and we’ve got the data to back this statement up — thousands of you voted in our wings poll earlier this year, ultimately crowning Wing King Cafe as the best wing spot in our area.
We decided to spread the wing love even further by creating a new ultimate searchable wings guide, including all the original favorites you voted for in our poll, as well as some new additions. By using this guide, not only can you find the exact type of wings you want, but you can also search by price point, location, sauce flavor, preparation technique and more.
