    Wingstops in Sugar Land are decent.

    Shoveling ranch into mouth via fries is pretty satisifying.

    What is funny is that by far the best wings I have had from a BWW was from the Kirkwood/Westheimer location. Also that location is not really ghetto, it pretty much backs up to Royal Oaks neighborhood and country club.

    BWW and Wingstop has been super hit and miss and waaaaaaaay overpriced for me. I swear Wingstop used to be a lot better than it is now but their fries are still awesome. Hooters and random bar wing night are my go-to spots for wings. I just had Pluckers for the first time and was pretty impressed, I will pay the extra $ for great wings.

    What? No, you misunderstood. I like the BWW on Kirkwood/Westheimer and it's definitely not ghetto.

    I was referring to the Wingstop on Westheimer/Kirkwood -- now that is ghetto. My fault for the poor wording.

    Ahh no worries. I never went to that Wingstop but I always wanted to try that Bonfire wings place. I used to live right around the corner at that Camden Whispering Oaks complex and loved that little area. I miss going to that Phoenicia every week.

    I like WingStop. Ate there yesterday. My fave is Pluckers though. During the week no crowds.

    I go to Brewingz sometimes but don't like buying wings in any place in general. They never fill me up and are expensive.

    It is just a great international/Mediterranean grocery store. I love to cook and Greek food is my favorite so it is interesting to see the different products they have. It is pretty big so you have a pretty wide selection and it has some amenities. They have an awesome in-house bakery that makes desserts, fresh breads (not regular grocery store French bread but Pita, Palestinian bread etc.) and they have a great olive/miscellaneous fresh food bar. The dried spices are insanely cheap, all of my dried spices are from Phoenicia. The selection of cheeses, dried meats, beer, wine, olive oil and cooking gadgets are awesome. I can spend hours in that place.

    I don't spend a lot of money each time (prices are pretty fair) I go but I always pick up something new and unique. Don't go expecting to pick up your paper towels, tylenol and stuff like that, its primarily food. If you get bored on a Saturday you should head over browse around. I think anyone who just enjoys food, especially Mediterranean food, will like that place.

    Thanks for the heads up, my wife loves ish like this so it'll probably be a decent distraction. I'll give it a look!

    I hate their fries....and the wings are meh at the locations I've had.

    We have a few franchises by my house. BWW, Brew wingz, and Wingstop right next to each other.

    Although I prefer to grill my own wings....speaking of which, when did the price skyrocket for fresh wings at the grocery store? Ridiculous prices vs other parts of the chicken.

    Too main stream now...like crawfish, the increased prices. :(

    As a raw vegan, I agree that Wing Stop is one of the worst wing spots in Houston.

    I still like Buffalo Wild Wings. I think they're better than brewingz and wing stop. I think location matters.

    Of the brewingz I've been to, I've been to 290, 45 Alameda, 45 wayside, silber, and pearland parkway. Out of all of them, I like the pearland parkway one the best. The Silber one is new. They left the marq e. That's not a bad place. I've been a few times. Wings were solid. On Fridays they have some margarita deal. It's new and I think they had a new bartender, because the drink was way too heavy, even for a margarita.


    My favorite hooters is the one in Pasadena. Wings are okay, but they always hooked me up with the best tables and best waitresses.

    A 30 Piece meal is at least $40. Ya'll know any other good wing places that has good prices? I'm looking for 30 or more. I'm thinking I should just cook my own with them kind of prices.

    BWW has had some competitive pricing since the Pandemic started.

    I don't really eat wings ever anymore unless it is Pluckers. I have had enough bad experiences at other random places that it's worth taking the chance.
