Reply to comment by Pickles-In-Space in Bars with good deals on good wings? by Pickles-In-Space

Because of a few factors (avian flu, feed prices), chicken wings are extremely expensive right now. They used to be so cheap they were a loss leader, but the bars can't do that anymore. Maybe once chicken prices stabilize they can go back to those promotions. But I second Bidwell and also recommend Shea's in Manchester.

Yeah I'm figuring it must be bad on their end right now, the average price is probably around $1.50 each, it's nuts.

For sure. The restaurants aren't happy about it. Wings were a good way to bring in people who will spend money on beer after some spicy wings, but they'd be better off discounting the beer at this point.

However, I do hope you have a nice birthday and get some tasty wings!!
