Wings franchise landing in Kitsilano

During a time where the local pub is trying to keep its head above water, Lower Mainland franchise Wings Restaurant and Pub is flying - and still gaining altitude.

During a time where the local pub is trying to keep its head above water, Lower Mainland franchise Wings Restaurant and Pub is flying - and still gaining altitude.

A new location at 1618 Yew Street is opening in the spring of 2012, and the management hopes to tap into the growing local nightlife.

Famous for - you guessed it - chicken wings, the franchise offers 20 different flavours of wings, each inspired by a unique global hotspot. Wings Restaurants and Pub has also recently updated its menu to add "spiced up" menu options.

Yew Street in Kitsilano, just off of the popular shopping destinations of West Fourth Avenue and West Broadway Avenue, is a budding zone for restaurants and the interest from franchises adds to this reputation. However, several longtime restaurants have closed down in the area recently. Wings, for instance, will take over space vacated by the venerable King's Head Pub.

With six locations in Surrey, Abbotsford, Coquitlam, White Rock, Burnaby and downtown Vancouver's Granville Street, Wings has covered almost every corner of the Lower Mainland.

No official information was available on the cost of a Wings Restaurant and Pub as of press time.
