What does Wing Wednesday actually cost?

Wings for $13 a pound, every Wednesday. They’re jumbo-sized. The regular menu price is $18 a pound, so the Wednesday rate saves you a meaningful amount if you’re planning a proper wing night rather than a quick order on the side.

The special is dine-in only. It doesn’t apply to takeout.

That’s the whole deal - no points system, no minimum order. You come in on a Wednesday, you order wings by the pound.

Why arrive before 5pm?

Happy hour runs 2-5pm daily. During that window, all pints are $6 and all glasses of wine are $6. Wing Wednesday and happy hour are separate - they stack.

If you get to the pub before 5pm on a Wednesday, you’re eating jumbo wings at $13 a pound while drinking draft beer at $6 a pint.

That’s the case for arriving early. You can also come later - the pub is open until 10pm Monday through Thursday. But the overlap between happy hour and wing night is worth knowing.

What to drink with wings

The pub runs 24 rotating draught taps. Local craft options from Wellington Brewery and Forked River come through regularly. The full tap list rotates, so what’s on a given Wednesday depends on the week.

If you’re going with wings, a cold pint is the obvious call. Come before 5pm and that pint is $6.

The pub also carries wine, spirits, and non-alcoholic options. If beer isn’t your thing, you’re not stuck.

Which sauces are worth ordering?

We won’t try to cover every sauce here - that’s a separate post.

What we can say: garlic parmesan has come up more than once in reviews, and it’s been specifically mentioned by guests as a standout. If you haven’t tried it, that’s a reasonable place to start.

Beyond that, the pub offers multiple sauce options. If you want something with more heat, ask the team what’s on - they’ll point you in the right direction.
