July 29th, 2021 is National Chicken Wing Day, and our real estate agents are the first to admit that we don't need any excuse to celebrate this particular occasion. If you happen to be in Central Virginia in time for the holiday, we recommend these top spots for wings in Richmond and the surrounding areas. 

• The Cocky Rooster - 2523 W Main St, Richmond, VA 23220
  The folks at The Cocky Rooster know a thing or two about chicken. You can order your wings fried, smoked or boneless, and drenched in finger-licking sauces like spicy honey butter, garlic parmesan, and of course classic mild, medium, or hot. The Cocky Rooster is just a short drive from these Richmond homes for sale, and they even have vegan wings for plant-based diners!
  
  
• Brew Craft Bar & Kitchen - 6525 Centralia Rd, Chesterfield, VA 23832
  A cozy gastropub with tasty bar food and 30 rotating beers on tap, Brew Craft Bar & Kitchen is a perfect spot to sip a cold one and tear into some wings. Their super-crispy chicken wings come doused in buffalo bourbon or sweet Thai chili sauce, with a side of bleu cheese for dunking. They also make some of the best beer-battered onion rings in town and are located mere minutes from these Chesterfield homes for sale.
  
  
• Flyin' Pig - 13560 Waterford Pl, Midlothian, VA 23112
  With a laid-back bar and grill vibe, Flyin' Pig is a great spot to relax and mow down a dozen savory, perfectly crispy wings. Located a stone's throw from these Midlothian homes for sale, Flyin' Pig hickory smokes their wings and serves them up with any of their 10 signature sauces. Choose classic buffalo sauce, honey BBQ, pineapple teriyaki, or 'waiver wings' so hot you have to sign a waiver before eating them.
  
  
• Legend Brewing Co. - 321 W 7th St, Richmond, VA 23224
  No one can deny that Legend Brewing Co. makes some of the finest craft beers, ales, and lagers in town. But their wings are also next-level. They're grilled and dry-rubbed to perfection, and they taste great dunked in Porter BBQ sauce and washed down with a Legend IPA. Legend Brewing Co. also has a spacious deck and beer garden that will make you want to stay for another round. 
  
  
• Hurley's Tavern - 4028 Cox Rd, Glen Allen, VA 23060
  A beloved local watering hole with some of the best-elevated pub grub in town, Hurley's Tavern makes some seriously tasty wings. They're perfectly crunchy and crispy, and you can order yours any of 10 sauces or six dry rub seasonings (maple-bacon and Memphis BBQ are perennial favorites). Make it a 'Wings and Rings' combo with the addition of onion rings! Hurley's is just minutes from these Glen Allen homes for sale.
  
  
• HogsHead Cafe - 8902 W Broad St, Richmond, VA 23294
  Although HogsHead Cafe is known for barbecue first and foremost, they also happen to serve some of the best wings in Richmond. Their jumbo spice-rubbed wings are cooked to juicy-yet-crispy perfection before being slathered in sauce and served with bleu cheese and celery. Sauce options include classic buffalo and BBQ, along with their signature Fiery Hog Sauce. Go ahead and order some loaded tater tots on the side. You won't regret it. 
  
  
• Brother's Pizza - 25809 Cox Rd, Petersburg, VA 23803
  With a name like Brother's Pizza, you expect a menu full of great pizza and Italian favorites. But they are on this list for a reason, and that's because of their wing zings. Available in orders of 6, 10, or 20, these crispy fried wings make the perfect appetizer for your Italian meal. Or get their appetizer sampler to try other appetizers along with the wing zings. Either way, you're in for a treat! Plus, their location is close to many Petersburg homes for sale.
