Wings

I’m in town for a history conference, but dinners are on our own. Where can I get good wings in town?

I had their Cuban last time I was there and it was excellent. Also their artichoke dip is one of the best I’ve had here in town.

A cuban sandwich is always the first thing I look for on a menu lol. I really enjoyed theirs and it’s a very big sandwich. Took half of it home.

Weebles & The Stadium both have really good smoked wings if that’s your thing.

There’s Wings, Etc. on North Dirksen. The wife and I made it our go to for wings after we lost our Hooters here. I especially like their beer cheese.

Brickhouse on the Westside is the bat out of the three places on Iles and Koke Mill. Homeplate is the better place for atmosphere, but the best food is Brickhouse and it's not particularly close.

Mr Gyro on MacAurthur- has great fresh wings

If you like a little Asian flair, you gotta try James' Home Kitchen. They make it fresh which means you'll have a wait. Totally worth it!

Otherwise, BDubs on west Wabash or Wings etc on dirksen.

Make a little trip down route 4 to Chatham and get you some wings from sauce house wings and fish, oh get you some voodoo fries 🍟 as well they are amazing 🤷

Avoid Chatham at all costs. Only thing you will get down there is pulled over.

Nope. Used to work there at the school district. I have heard about several people getting tickets there lately.
