Unofficial holidays centred around food are the best kind.

And to many, July 29th could be considered THE best of these holidays as National Chicken Wing Day. It doesn’t matter if you prefer saucy wings or a dry rub, hot and spicy, or sweet and savoury, bone-in or boneless: Chicken Wing Day celebrates them all. And you can celebrate by trying some of Edmonton’s hottest spots for wings.
It doesn’t need to be a Wednesday to enjoy some of the flavours you’ll find at these restaurants and pubs, with flavours like dill pickle, spicy mango, Teriyaki, lemon pepper, and so many more to tempt you.
Tap 25 at the River Cree Resort & Casino
You can celebrate National Chicken Wing Week or day with Tap 25 while also celebrating their new menu! For a limited time, their new menu items, including wings, are 50% off the regular price. Tap 25’s wings come in all the classic favourite flavours like Frank’s Redhot, sriracha, barbecue, honey garlic, sweet chili, lemon pepper, or salt and pepper. Pair your wings with their other snacks like pretzels, cauliflower bites, or mini corn dogs.

Underground Tap & Grill
It is National Chicken Wing Day and Week but take this as an opportunity to try something completely different: something like the Underground’s duck wings, complete with rave reviews. You don’t need to hold back on your wing order though and can compare the duck to their classic chicken wings seasoned with salt and pepper and served with a classic ranch.

WOW POP Chicken
Fortunately for Edmonton, Nova Scotia’s WOW POP Chicken opened two locations in our city to bring us their 18 blends of dry spices and 10 different chicken wing sauces. You might need more than National Chicken Wing Day to try it all like their Suicide, Lime Tequila, or Honey Garlic wings. You can also try select flavours as chicken tenders or as boneless wings.

Original Joe’s
Many neighbourhoods in Edmonton call Original Joes the local pub around the block, and many come for the wings. Try OJ’s wings in a large variety of flavours too with classics like Teriyaki, Honey Garlic, or Salt & Pepper; or try your wings with a more unique rub/sauce like dill pickle, Greek, or ghost pepper.
