Wingfest 2017 Kicks Off in Astoria

Astoria omnivores, do you love wings? We think you do, judging from what we’ve heard over the years (especially your love of those at Dillinger’s and Bonchon). So the news that Time Out New York’s annual Wingfest series kicks off in Queens this weekend should be pretty exciting (Brooklyn and Manhattan Wingfests are scheduled for later this year)!

The event is this Saturday, February 25 at Studio Square, and there is much to look forward to!

Here’s what your $35 ticket gets you:

• A tasting from each participating restaurant
• Two D.E.W. & a Brew boilermakers (a shot of Tully and a Bronx Brew) from Tullamore D.E.W.
• Irish Whiskey & Bronx Brewery
• DJ Jeronimo spinning tunes
• Games, giveaways, and more

Here are the restaurants—all based in Queens and handpicked by the organizers—participating:

• Austin’s Ale House (Kew Gardens)
• Munch (Forest Hills)
• Mokja (Astoria)
• Bridie’s Bar & Grill (Rego Park)
• The Brewery Bar and Kitchen (Woodside/Astoria)
• Atomic Wings at Bar 43 (Sunnyside)
• Flattopps (Astoria)

The event’s first session from 11am-1pm still has tickets available, and two hours should give you enough time to enjoy plenty of great wings and booze. Get your tickets here! And if you go and share your pics on social media, be sure to tag them with #weheartastoria so we can see what you enjoyed.
