Best Wings in Phoenix Metro — Sports Bar Edition
Phoenix Metro's Best Wings for Game Day
Phoenix is a serious sports town. Between the Cardinals at State Farm Stadium, the Suns at Footprint Center, the D-backs at Chase Field, and six Major League Baseball teams calling the Valley home for spring training, there is no shortage of game-day occasions. And game day means wings. Here is where the Phoenix metro delivers on that promise.
Yard House at Westgate City Center — Wings and Wall-to-Wall Screens
Yard House at Westgate City Center in Glendale is the premier game-day destination in the West Valley. Situated steps from State Farm Stadium and Desert Diamond Arena, it runs a wing program with a rotating lineup of sauces — from the classic buffalo to Korean BBQ and garlic parmesan. The sports bar setup with dozens of screens means you will never miss a play, and the draft beer list is extensive enough to last an entire double-header. On Cardinals game days and concert nights at the arena, the energy here is unmatched in the West Valley.
Dave and Buster's — Wings Plus Entertainment
Dave and Buster's in the Phoenix metro runs a wing happy hour that regulars swear by. The bone-in wings come out crispy and sauced to order, and the all-you-can-play arcade model means the group can extend the evening well past the final whistle. It is especially good for groups with mixed interests — sports fans and non-sports fans alike find something to do. Check the ZonaHaps happy hour listings for current wing specials and timing.
Four Peaks Brewing — Craft Beer Wings Done Right
Four Peaks Brewing in Tempe has built a loyal following around its Kilt Lifter Scottish Ale, but the food program deserves equal credit. Their wings are brined, double-cooked for maximum crispiness, and served with house-made dipping sauces that go well beyond the standard ranch and blue cheese. The large taproom can handle a crowd, making it one of the best spots in the East Valley for watching a game with a group. Pair the wings with a seasonal beer release for the full experience.
Arizona Wilderness Brewing — Smoked Wing Program
Arizona Wilderness Brewing takes a different approach to wings — the smoke program is serious, and the dry-rub varieties have a depth of flavor that traditional fried wings cannot match. Their Phoenix and Gilbert locations attract a crowd that appreciates craft ingredients, and the wing menu reflects that. If you want wings that taste like they came off a competition barbecue circuit, Arizona Wilderness is the move. Browse sports events near Phoenix on ZonaHaps and plan your visit around a big game.
TopGolf Glendale — Wings With a View
TopGolf Glendale serves wings table-side in your hitting bay, which might be the best possible wings scenario. Order a dozen during your round, watch the sun drop behind the West Valley skyline, and debate sauce choices between swings. The buffalo and sweet chili varieties are strong, and the service is consistent enough to keep up during busy weekend evenings. It is a golf activity and a wing experience rolled into one.
