Food is a big part of the Super Bowl experience. A good meal can put the extravaganza over the top.
And what food item is more synonymous with the Super Bowl than wings? If you don’t feel like cooking up some homemade chili, you can’t go wrong with ordering wings for the Big Game. To help you out, our staff writers compiled a list of the best spots in Toronto to get wings for the Super Bowl.
Check out the top spots below.

Five writers, five different recommendations. Spencer Closs, Jordan Horrobin, Avery Perri, Steven Psihogios and Chris Toman dish on their favourite places to get wings in the city.
If you’re thinking of adding wings to your Super Bowl bash, these spots are a good place to start.
Wingstop
Closs: Wingstop has a fast-food vibe so you can order six-piece, eight-piece, or 10-piece wing combos (with fries and drink) if you are buying alone. They, of course, also offer family packs of up to 100 wings to feed any Super Bowl party. Since it is a chain restaurant, the accessibility is unmatched.
There are six locations in Toronto and multiple others around the GTA for those outside the city. And don’t worry because Wingstop’s taste is top quality, too. They offer 14 flavours with the typical heat scale wing-lovers are used to.
Duff’s Famous Wings
Horrobin: Devouring legitimate buffalo wings outside of Western New York is a cheat code, and yet that’s exactly what you’ll get at Duff’s Famous Wings at either of its Toronto locations.
You don’t go to Duff’s for ambiance. You go for a pound (or two) of bone-in brilliance, sauced and piled high in a wooden bowl. My ideal bite is that first crunch into a crispy, medium-sauced flat. If you go, don’t get boneless. And please, for the love of God, don’t get cauliflower.
Drums N Flats
Perri: Drums N Flats, or “DNF” as my buddies and I call it, is a staple in the Avenue and Lawrence area. I’ve spent many nights watching big games there, hammering back their double-dipped wings with a few drinks.
They’ve got about every flavour you can imagine and let you choose between drums, flat, or mixed. Blackened Buffalo is my go-to and Angry Mexican also gets a good shout. And if you’re going in person and the game sucks they also have Golden Tee, which is a plus.
Pig Out BBQ
Psihogios: Pig Out has fantastic barbecue and will deliver right to you, saving you time ahead of the Big Game. The Pig Out Platter has everything you need for your Super Bowl party. Ribs, sausage, pulled pork, chicken wings and beef brisket. The barbecue sauce is smokey and flavourful, and the food is always cooked to perfection. I couldn’t recommend it more.
Crown & Dragon
Toman: This place checks off several boxes. Prime location (Yonge and Davenport). Multiple half-price nights throughout the week, including all day Sunday (dine-in only), making it an ideal spot to watch the NFL.
Twenty-five-plus wing options. Rated the No. 1 wing spot in Toronto by multiple reviewers over the years. You’ll know you haven’t been eating the best wings until you devour Crown & Dragon. Don’t take my word for it, give it a try yourself and you won’t be disappointed.
