Best Chicken Wings in Kingston

Now that we are well into the throes of the 2015 NHL Play-offs, and local spring sports leagues are starting up, many of us are searching for the perfect place to cheer on our favourite team or hang out after a soccer or baseball game. When it comes to finding a suitable hangout, our sights are typically set on local bars and pubs, and the grub they offer is usually a deciding factor.

Whatever your preference, there are dozens of local options when it comes to this delicious finger food.  The wide array of choices made it very difficult for us to narrow down the options on the list, so we decided to stick with some of the best locally owned establishments (and there are still 10 of them!)
