My fiancé and I went on a Wednesday night for the Wednesday wings special. It was our first time so we weren’t aware that on Wednesdays, they’re only making wings and nothing else. This makes sense though, as we saw many people coming in and ordering so many wings. I’m not sure how they sell their wings on any other day of the week, but Wednesdays they’re only selling the wings by 10’s. This also includes one sauce per 10, they’re not splitting the sauce. So if I want another sauce, I would have to order 10 more. This was fine with me and my fiancé though, as we both loved their wings.
We ordered the Garlic Parmesan, 2x Inferno and Asian Cajun. The 2x Inferno had a perfect spice for me as I love to eat spicy food. It was, however, too spicy for my fiancé and he wasn’t able to eat more than one. The Garlic Parmesan was a bit more on the salty side but I like to eat salty food and I would say this one was my favorite out of the three. The Asian Cajun was good, it’s equivalent to the Asian Zing.
I would recommend going earlier in the day if you want to go for a more family-friendly environment. As it gets later, there are more people coming in to have a few beers with their wing. This is a bar so it makes sense that people would come in for beers. The place is a bit small and very limited seating, so I would not advise a big group for dining in.
Overall, I now understand why this place is known for the best wings in town and I would definitely go back for more wings.

Our group of 3 just enjoyed wings and taps while watching the Packer game after the BassMasters weigh in at Copeland Field. Food was great. Service was fast, responsive and very accommodating. This is a real north side gem!

Will not serve food unless you have a 21+ ID. Don’t say you have good wings if you can out serve certain people.very disrespectful.
FUN FUN FUN! Check it out, 🍻🍔🍟🥗
We were traveling back from chicago and were looking for the best wings in la crosse. This place came up and me and my girlfriend were tired and hungry, ready to eat. We came into the bar and weren’t greeted at all. (we both work in the food industry) Okay whatever, they’re busy it’s okay. We talked to the sweetest lady ever (didn’t work there) and she explained to us how to order because nobody else said anything to us. So we sat down at the bar and got kicked out because we were under 21….. What kind of bar refuses to serve food because we were under 21?? We literally thought they were joking at first because our first interaction with the bartender was weird and rude, and the manager confirmed to us that they didn’t serve to people under 21. We walked out completely disappointed and heard the managers and bartender laughing at us??? I guess i would be rude aswell if i worked at a shitty little bar in a small town. Ive never wrote a review in my life, especially because i work in the food industry and understand that sometimes you don’t have a good day, but the way these people acted gave me no choice. Apparently Other people had the same interaction with this place. Save your time, don’t come here. We recommend the La Crosse distillery!
Best wings in the city

Great new staff! Friendly, professional, attentive and the wings were a 10/10! I’ve been coming here for years NEVER has a bartender taken my order and introduced themselves at the same time! Not only did Alex introduce himself to us, he introduced himself so every customer that he helped! Both bartenders were sober, and I didn’t see any other staff taking up seating room at the bar. Nice clean up!
Best bar wings! Get the Asian Cajun sauce. Love the bartenders!
