You might ask yourself, what's with the mashed potatoes?

Turns out One Eyed Jack Kingston has quite the selection of sides. Don't ask us what they were. There were too many to remember.

We hadn't been there as a group since they opened. At the time it was crazy busy. Things have settled since then, although it's still damn near impossible to get a parking space.

Other things we need to appreciate:
1) big wetmaps
2) most days of the week have some sort of wing special
3) bigger than average wings

We'll be back, and this time it won't take us three years.

The biggest change since we last went to Wing Kingston is their branding doesn't look like the Winnipeg Blue Bombers anymore.

If you know, you know. The wings are pretty solid. It's one of the better chains in the city. But can we take a moment to talk about their wetnaps? Not only are they big, the material feels much more substantial. As one member of our group put it, it's like wiping with a small wet shirt.

Note they have a deal on Tuesdays when you buy a drink.

Wild Wing also gets props for not referring to their chicken nuggets as "boneless wings", although they came very close to doing so.

We've been to Mac n’ Wings a few times now. The service was a bit off this time, but the person who served us had just started, so we'll let that slide.

Chain wing restaurants are usually pretty mediocre, but Mac n' Wings is an exception. The wings taste fresh, and they come in a wide variety of flavours. And yes, the macaroni is good too.

Our only gripe is still the waste. We actually sent them an email addressing it. We'll let you know if we get any reply.

Yes. Harper's has wings.

A few things to keep in mind about their wings:
They're a little different in that they're "brined, smoked, & oven-roasted".
As you can see, one order was lightly sauced. The other had sauce on the side which was odd.
They don't have a lot of them. Our group only got two orders before they ran out. Same thing happened many years ago when we went.
No side.

Having said all this, they were pretty good. What you're seeing here is their Carolina gold and Alabama white which were quite tasty.

Give them a try and let us know what you think. Just don't bring a big group.

A couple of weeks ago we asked for your favourite wing spots in the city. We got some great responses. Many of them are our favourites too, especially Iron Duke and The Loyal Oarsman.

This week we'd like to give a shoutout to some underrated wing destinations.

Rhodes Resto + Bar Kingston's Caesar garlic Parmesan is a group favourite. They also have a good deal on Mondays.

Mac n’ Wings might be the best chain in the city. Surprisingly fresh.

For a burger place, Burger 347 Kingston has no business making wings as good as they do.

If you're in Battersea, definitely try Creekside Bar & Grill. Great wings and vibes.

Some of you have told us that Raxx Billiards Bar & Grill hasn't been as good lately. You may be on to something.

The wings still had good texture and heat retention, we like some of their unique flavours, and their Wednesday deal is one of the best in the city, but the sizes were all over the place. They varied from big and hearty to did-this-even-come-from-a-chicken?

We still like Raxx, and we realize they're not the ones raising the chickens, but the wings shouldn't be the same size as your fork.

Things are expensive these days, so we're always on the lookout for wing deals. The Wednesday special at Portsmouth Tavern is good, but a bit complicated. The wings normally come with a side, but the special does not include them. You're paying half price for the wings, but extras like fries and dip cost extra.

Having said that, it's still a decent deal. Some places charge you over 20 bucks for wings with no side.

We generally like The Ports, partly for the food and partly for the vibes.

P.S. Never really appreciated that nice sign before.

The Merchant Tap House is the place to go if you like unbreaded/naked wings.

They've got a decent variety of flavours. The maple bacon smell usually stays on your hands until the next day (this is a good thing). They also know enough to not refer to their nuggets as "boneless wings".

The service was also very good. They even changed the music for us (this group doesn't generally care for country).

The Merchant has been pretty consistent over the years. Our only criticism is the same as last year; no side.

Apart from that, very respectable wings and venue.

The Brass Pub wings used to be pretty mediocre. They're one of the few places that actually got better post-COVID.

Not the best in town, but very solid. Good texture and heat retention, and a decent variety of flavours. They also come with a side of very tasty fries (if you look closely, you can see one being stolen).

Our only real criticism is they come very close to being oversauced.

Worth mentioning that their half price Tuesday special is tough to beat. We consider them tied with Raxx for the most bang-for-your-buck deal in the city.
