Our last day of business will be Thursday July 11, 2024.
This restaurant features chicken wings as its primary menu focus, around which the remainder of the menu was fashioned. The wholesale fresh chicken wing prices that we pay to our suppliers are now 2.5 times greater than they were when we opened 18 months ago in January 2023. Not long after we opened for business, the wholesale fresh chicken wing prices increased, and increased, and again, and so forth, at an unforeseen and still climbing rate, such that the impact thereof has outweighed the fruits of our growth, and has broken the viability of our core competency and our #1 selling menu item. This extraordinary supply price escalation has ended the notion of reasonable chicken wing menu prices and has damaged our operational performance metrics, rendering the perpetuation of this chicken wing centric business as unfeasible.
Accordingly, we will be closing.
Sidewinders Wings & Things will conclude with review ratings of 5/5 on Facebook, 4.8/5 on UberEats, 4.7/5 on DoorDash, and 4.6/5 on Google. For this I am grateful, and would like to extend my appreciation to everyone for their patronage of this establishment.
