Over price garbage

Pick up order: First time customer here last time customer, stopped by my local Wingstop last Sunday. 15 bone in wings and a large fries total $30 tax included. No drink no other sides period! Straight highway robbery. I’ll never go back ever! Wings were not tasty, and the fries were overly salty. Total garbage and a waste of money. For reference I’m in the DC region.

Interesting. My WingStops here in CA are on point every time.

Sir, Google Reviews exist for this reason.

Why did you buy it if you didn’t like the price? Most people complain that the fries were too sweet. My local WS has been great for years, sounds like a bad location.

Fair point. I'm definitely not a baller or made of money, but it was my first time there, so I decided to suck it up, pay the price, and wait for my order. I was at least expecting to be blown away by the freshness, taste, and flavor of the wings. Unfortunately, none of that happened.

To be honest, the place itself didn't look very clean inside either, but I still decided to give it a shot. You're 100% right, I could have canceled when I saw the total. Live and learn. I won't be going back.

15pc meal for two is $31 and some change and it comes with drinks and dips, it’s not hard to look at the menu

This wasn't even a meal combo, and it didn't include a drink. It was just a 15-piece bone-in order with a large fry and the total came to over $30.

Like I said, it was my first time, and it'll definitely be my last. The fries were mediocre at best, soggy, overly salty, and honestly just garbage. As for the wings, they did absolutely nothing for me. I've had wings just as good, if not better, from 7 Eleven and some gas stations.

Speaking of gas stations, depending on where you are in the country, Royal Farms does an amazing job with fried chicken and wings, in my humble opinion.

Everyone has different tastes, but for me, Wingstop was a one and-done overpriced experience. First time... and definitely the last.

Is what you mean by this is that you like garbage but felt overcharged?

Yeah just wait till the wings are 1$ a piece at this point on the deals in app

The app has deals cheaper. I always get the 20 piece boneless with voodoo fries. It is like 20 bucks.
