Wingstop, the rapidly expanding wing concept with 550 locations, has landed in Champaign! The Wing Experts are now open and saucing and hand-tossing made-to-order wings at 512 South Neil Street in Champaign, Ill.
The new opening is part of a multi-unit development agreement with Chicagoland Wing Kings, LLC, a franchise group that is developing Wingstop restaurants throughout the area and recently opened a location in Hillside, Ill.
“We’re excited to introduce more wing and sports fans to Wingstop,” said Vishal Shah, one of the Chicagoland Wing Kings partners. “There’s already a location in Decatur, which has a very loyal following. With basketball season is heating up, we believe guests in the Champaign area will embrace another Wingstop in the neighborhood.”
With a sole focus on cooked-to-order chicken, the Wingstop menu features classic and boneless wings, chicken strips and sandwiches – sauced and hand-tossed in 10 intense flavors. Texas-based Wingstop was founded in 1994 and currently has more than 550 locations open nationwide and in Mexico.
Wingstop Champaign is open from 11 a.m. to midnight daily. Call ahead and carryout orders available at 217-690-9464 (WING), Wingstop.com or the Wingstop phone app.
