The store was designed to target homesick Buffalonians at the air force base but to their surprise, the biggest draw was beach traffic.

Responding to demand, Wings To Go began to open branches a Dewey Beach and in Wilmington. By the end of the third year, there were five locations dispensing five degrees of wings, from mild to the famous Suicide version. Today, there is a sixth degree that can cause even the most brave to cry…Homicide!!!

By 1989 franchising began and the rest they say is history. There are now over 60 locations in 10 states.

Unlike some franchises, Wings To Go permit some individuality among franchises. Some stores are strictly take-out; others offer seating; some opt for a beer license. What ever your needs are, Wings To Go can fit you with the store of your dreams.

Do you want to be your own boss? Want to have some say in the design of your store? Want a job that you can go to and actually enjoy for a change? Look no further…Wings To Go is right for you!
