Why everyone keeps coming back.

Wingstop, located at 7180 N Academy Blvd in Colorado Springs, is a vibrant hotspot for chicken wing enthusiasts seeking bold flavors and satisfying bites. Specializing in perfectly cooked boneless and classic bone-in wings, this restaurant elevates the wing experience with a diverse lineup of mouthwatering sauces and seasonings. Whether you crave the fiery kick of Original Hot, the zesty blend of Louisiana Rub, or the creamy richness of Garlic Parmesan, Wingstop delivers wings that are crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, ensuring every bite bursts with flavor.

The menu extends beyond wings to complement your meal with an array of tempting sides.

It’s always a great place to eat. Now that it’s new employees, it’s way better than before! I love coming here. Got original hot and Louisiana rub my two favorites. Other one is garlic Parmesan and Louisiana rub with Parmesan fries. Well done wings and very crispy. Employees are very friendly and nice. Good job!

It had been years and years since we’d eaten at a Wingstop until we randomly decided to place a carryout order here tonight instead of going with BWW as we usually do. WHAT A GREAT DECISION THIS WAS! We were literally shocked at how much better the food was here in every single way. Huge, juicy wings cooked to perfection, loaded with sauce, fries perfectly cooked and seasoned….all food fresh and hot. Staff was super friendly to my wife during the pickup. Just a tremendous upgrade over BWW and we are hands down converted to only getting our wing fix here from now on!

Placed an order by calling this location and the employee gave me the proper expectation on how long my order would take given that it was Super Bowl Sunday. She way polite and helped take my order. When I arrived to pick up my order, there was already an employee calling out my name for my order; talk about perfect timing! This employee asked if I had paid, which is a great ask so no one is walking away with free food. I did not lay so she handed my order to another employee who then checked my receipt to make sure it matched the receipt that was tapped to my order. I then paid and was on my way back home for the big game in a matter of 5 mins. I appreciate the hustle from the employees and making sure orders are going to the right customers before anyone left. It’s my first time at this location so thanks for a good first impression.

Damien was awesome. Kid deserves a raise. Very good attitude. Great customer service. Food came out hot and fresh. Absolutely best experience I've had at a Wingstop give this kid a raise. He had a smile on his face the whole time. They were busy and it didn't seem to phase him at all. Food was fantastic. The whole team seemed to be in a pretty good mood. I've been to this location a lot and haven't had the best experiences, but this time was completely different. That gentleman Damien had everything on lock

5 stars is for the delicious food only!!! Girl working up front (10.24.2022@3pm) clearly did not like her job. She is the kind of person that will make you feel not comfortable asking for a napkin, which I didn't. Im also eating in my car instead because watching her be all nice to all the men that came in made me question my faith in humanity.

6/15/24 I meant to leave this update sooner. I was ultimately able to connect with Etan about my challenges incurred during the Super Bowl previously, and he totally helped make it right and reverse my initially poor impression. I'll also add that I had another challenge recently where I had made an error on my order and Etan helped escalate my concern to the GM for a quick reconciliation. Etan has a great attitude and is very customer service focused. He really seems to care about the customer's experience and outcome. I will definitely keep coming back when that craving for excellent wings hits, which unfortunately (fortunately) hits quite often! ------------------ (2/11/24 - Super Bowl): First problem: I believe my large online order (75pc family pack) of wings were prepared far too long before my pickup time (4p I arrived exactly at) in order to get ahead of the no doubt abundant Super Bowl orders. The cold wings completely derailed the flavor & brand association for Wingstop (I know ya'll can & have done better than this). Second problem: I believe the other X-factor in the equation was all of the ice cold veggies being placed right in the same bags on top of what was supposed to be my hot food (How long have ya'll been doing this?). Fries were soggy, wings were cold. We were obviously hungry by the time I brought them home (which is only about a 5m drive) so we ate them as-is. The $132.92 (not cheap esp. in this economy) I spent felt like I should've spent no more than $20 on this meal. Huge value perception disparity. Oh yeah, & the restaurant forgot to include my large order of corn so another added ding on the full value of what we expected from our expensive order. Terrible experience altogether. The associates were nice, so this doesn't reflect on the customer service as much as the process & outcome of your prime offering...hot, delicious food to enjoy during a memorable experience (e.g. Super Bowl). After I got home & realized the wings were cold & our corn was missing, I called & spoke with a mgr named Etana (Etan for short). He suggested I come in for a refund. (2/12/24 - Day after Super Bowl): I went back for refund, Etan wasn't there, but Sandra (another mgr) was there & got my order info. I asked if anything more can be done to make right, she said she'd try, but prob just be corn & could take til Wed. It's Thursday, so far, nothing.
