There's nothing like rounding up your friends and digging into a massive pile of warm, perfectly seasoned wings. If you’re a wing-lover, there are plenty of places for you to choose from in Massachusetts. Here are some of the best places to grab a plate.
1. The Rendezvous Restaurant, Turners Falls
This local watering hole serves wings to die for. They have an eclectic menu that caters to people who love comforting pub food and a cool atmosphere. Try the classic Buffalo wings with their special sauce. (78 Third Street, Turners Falls)
2. Hangar Pub and Grill, Amherst
The Hangar Pub and Grill in Amherst came out on top in a poll conducted by MassLive to determine the best chicken wings in the state. Bone in or bone out, this place serves wings that will make your tastebuds sing. Try the sweet chili flavor if you like a touch of heat, or sample the garlic parmesan wings for a savory treat. (10 University Drive, Amherst)
3. Wendell's Pub, Norton
Wendell’s is a wings heavyweight. They serve wings that offer thin, crispy skin over a perfectly cooked, melt-in-your-mouth piece of chicken. Order a side of the yummy crinkle fries and a plate of the potato skins and you’ll be all set. This place can get busy on weekends, so plan accordingly. (30 W Main Street, Norton)
4. E.B's Restaurant, Agawam
The wings here are sold by the piece rather by weight, so you can choose how many you’d like. If you drop by on Wednesday, you’ll be treated to all you can eat wings. They’ll bring out 20 to start and then 10 at a time as long as you can manage to put them away. Don’t miss the 24 Karat Gold Sauce or the TNT Buffalo wings. (385 Walnut Street Extension, Agawam)
5. Old Forge Restaurant, Lanesboro
Locals rave about the wings at the Old Forge Restaurant in Lanesborough. Though it's located amidst some truly beautiful Berkshire scenery, you might have trouble tearing your eyes off your plate of steaming, perfectly-sauced wings. There's a cozy pub atmosphere and great beer, and plenty of hearty menu items. Try the classic Buffalo wings dressed with their slightly sweet signature sauce. (125 N Main Street, Lanesboro)
6. Rumbleseat Bar & Grill, Chicopee
This is your classic dive bar with impressively good fare. Their wings aren’t anything fancy, but they keep locals coming back again and again. The wings are juicy, tender and perfectly cooked. If you don’t mind dining under the glow of flat screens showing current sports games (or even prefer it), you’ll be right at home here. (482 Springfield Street, Chicopee)
7. Patrick's Pub, Pittsfield
Patrick's Pub in Pittsfield is an old-fashioned Irish restaurant that specializes in tender and tasty wings. It has a comfortable and warm atmosphere that will have you feeling right at home. Try the traditional hot Buffalo flavor or scoop up some ginger teriyaki wings for a unique, spicy treat. (26 Bank Row, Pittsfield)
8. DJ's Famous Wings, Falmouth
This is a family-style sports bar and restaurant that is a great place to go with a bunch of friends for a bunch of wings. The best time to visit might actually be during the week, when the happy hour menu offers half off all appetizers and wings. They also have weekly beer specials. Don't miss trying their strangely delicious flavors like peanut butter and jelly wings or garlic parmesan wings. (882 Main Street, Falmouth)
9. Eat At Jumbo's, Somerville
What you're sure to get at Eat at Jumbo's is variety. There are 34 different flavors to choose from, including creamy pesto, spicy Thai peanut and a delicious Cajun option. You're sure to find a basket of wings that suits you. This place also has a very robust selection of vegetarian and vegan comfort food, so everyone can walk away happy. (688 Broadway, Somerville)
10. Angela's Coal Fired Pizza, Saugus
The wings here are truly special. They're marinated in lemon juice, olive oil, rosemary and garlic before being slow-roasted in a (you guessed it) coal fire oven. They'll arrive at your table on a pile of homemade focaccia and smothered in caramelized onions. Yeah, our mouths are watering too. (890 Broadway, Saugus)
11. Buff's Pub, Newton
Boston wing devotees will tell you that Buff's may have some of the best in the metro area. This is a cash-only sports bar, so be sure to bring some green. Try the Honey Hot, spicy teriyaki, and chipotle flavors for a mouthwatering wing experience. (317 Washington Street,
Newton)
