Three Chicagoland Wingstop Restaurants Celebrate Grand Opening with Free Wings
Wingstop opened three restaurants in Chicagoland over the summer, including its 25th location in the area. And now the three newest locations will celebrate with a grand opening for fans featuring free made-to-order wings Saturday, Sept. 21.

From 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., guests are invited to “Take 5” and get five free classic or boneless wings, sauced-and-tossed in their choice of any one of Wingstop’s signature flavors.

The offer is available – no purchase necessary – while supplies last at the new locations – 1473 Ellinwood in Des Plaines, 720 S. Illinois Route 83 in Mundelein, and 3059 N. Pulaski Rd. in Northwest Chicago.

“We’re very excited about opening up these new locations,” said Kent Chapin, new store opening director at Wingstop. “The fans in Chicagoland have welcomed us with open arms, and offering free wings is our way to commemorate the grand openings, and thank our guests.”

Wingstop operates 29 franchised locations in the state of Illinois, 27 of which are in the greater Chicago area. The chain plans to open five additional restaurants in Chicago in the next six months, a region already well known for its wings and sports fanatics.

“Chicagoans know wings, and they know sports,” added Chapin. “We’re proud to be part of this great Chicago tradition and invite fans to join us at these three new locations and enjoy wings on the house while watching your favorite teams.”

The Wingstop menu features classic and boneless wings, made fresh to order in a variety of intense flavors including Lemon Pepper, Garlic Parmesan, Original Hot and the newest addition, Mango Habanero. Sides are made fresh daily including hand-cut seasoned fries, made from #1 Idaho potatoes, baked beans, coleslaw, potato salad and famous house made ranch and blue cheese dips.
