5 Best Chicken Wing Spots in Brisbane Compared on Flavour and Crunch
Wings are on the menu at plenty of chicken restaurants in Brisbane, but a great plate needs crunch, flavour and the right setting for your night.
So I compared local wing spots on flavour, menu variety, atmosphere and price, from sports bars to all-you-can-eat buffets.
Here are the best chicken wing spots in Brisbane for a game night, a birthday or a late-night craving.

1. Winghaus Edward Street
Website: hunterstreethospitality.com.au/venues/winghaus/edward-st
Address: 144 Edward Street
Contact: +61 7 5651 2899 | [email protected]
Hours: Monday to Thursday, 11:30 AM to 10:30 PM | Friday to Saturday, 11:00 AM to 12:00 AM | Sunday, 11:00 AM to 9:00 PM
Watching the game is better with a plate of wings in front of you, but few bars get both right. Winghaus Edward Street is a downtown spot that pairs American-style comfort food with live sport on twenty screens.
Their wing list is long, and the flavours are bold. On top of that, they serve burgers, loaded nachos and local beers on tap, so groups have plenty to share.
That suited our table last week, when I grabbed a seat with some close mates. The service was fast, and the huge platters were easy to share while we cheered on our team.
However, the sports-bar atmosphere is frequently loud, so it may not suit diners who want a quiet, relaxed meal.
Customer Reviews
Her recommendation on what food to order was so helpful.
Amy was so helpful and very welcoming. We were here on a girls trip for 3 days and we came to wing house everyday to see Amy. Her recommendation on what food to order was so helpful. Always had a smile on her face.

Typical but above average wing venue fare.
Typical but above average wing venue fare. Food was fresh and hot. The higliht has to be the selection of drafts beers. As an old school type it was great to see Resch’s draft on tap. A litre for a very fair price can’t be argued with.

2. Seoul Bistro
Website: seoulbistro.com.au
Address: Shop 2, 152 Turton Street, Sunnybank
Contact: +61 7 3345 6360 | [email protected]
Hours: Monday to Thursday, 12:00 PM to 9:30 PM | Friday, 12:00 PM to 10:00 PM | Saturday, 11:00 AM to 10:00 PM | Sunday, 11:00 AM to 9:30 PM | Open seven days, including public holidays
Feeding a hungry group usually means choosing between a buffet and a proper menu. Seoul Bistro gives you both in Sunnybank.
The all-you-can-eat buffet centres on towering platters of golden, crisp Korean fried chicken in savoury glazes.
If your group would rather order separately, the à la carte menu keeps things flexible.
They’ve served Sunnybank since 2013 and built a large local following, which is reassuring when you’re booking for a crowd.
Planning a visit is simple too. You can reserve a table online, and they’re open seven days a week, public holidays included, so locking in a spot for a group is easy.
That said, the kitchen stops taking final orders thirty minutes before closing, so late diners should arrive earlier.

3. Yard Doggs Fortitude Valley
Website: yarddoggs.com
Address: 6/24 Martin Street, Fortitude Valley QLD 4006
Contact: +61 7 3257 2532 | [email protected]
Hours: Monday to Sunday, 12:00 PM to late
Not everyone in a group wants chicken, which makes picking a wing spot tricky. Yard Doggs in Fortitude Valley gets around that with American comfort food and Mexican-inspired bites.
Alongside a range of chicken wing flavours, the menu has juicy burgers, loaded tacos and vegan options. That means everyone at the table has something to order.
The setting is relaxed too, and the outdoor beer garden is the best part. I dropped by for weekend drinks with close friends last month, and sitting outside with crispy wings and a cold craft beer was the highlight of our evening.
Just keep in mind that a 15% surcharge applies on designated public holidays, so a holiday meal costs more.
Customer Reviews
The wings were cooked to perfection, with a crispy exterior
I recently visited Yard Doggs in Fortitude Valley and had an amazing experience. The chicken wings I tried, specifically the Smoke BBQ and Honey BBQ flavors, were incredibly delicious. The wings were cooked to perfection, with a crispy exterior and tender meat. The combination of spices in each bite was mouthwatering.

4. Big Roddy’s Rippin’ Rib Shack – Wings ‘N’ Things.
Website: bigroddysribs.com
Address: 67 Fish Lane, South Brisbane
Contact: +61 458 307 829 | [email protected]
Hours: Monday to Friday, 10:30 AM to 2:00 PM and 5:30 PM to 9:00 PM | Saturday to Sunday, 11:30 AM to 2:00 PM and 5:30 PM to 9:00 PM
Wing lovers who crave barbecue will find plenty to like at Big Roddy’s Rippin’ Rib Shack. They serve authentic American barbecue on trendy Fish Lane in South Brisbane.
The shack started as a humble weekend market stall in West End. They have since grown into a dining destination near South Bank Parklands.
Since they’re now a destination, it helps to plan ahead. You can reserve a table in advance, or order takeaway online and enjoy the food at home.
Whichever way you order, the wings sit alongside their signature tender pork and beef ribs. Juicy burgers and maple butter cornbread round out the hearty American-style menu.
However, the kitchen leans heavily on rich American food, so anyone after lighter dishes or non-American cuisine may find the menu limited. You may also struggle to reach them by phone during peak hours.

Wednesday wing special is great!
Wednesday wing special is great! Though grab a few extra as sometimes the wings are a bit small. Still a great deal. I like their house lager too. The tables and chairs are of non-standard proportions which can make things a bit squishy and awkward.

5. KaiKai Chicken St Lucia
Website: kaikaichicken.com
Address: 1/225 Hawken Drive, St Lucia
Contact: +61 490 793 890
Hours: Tuesday to Sunday, 5:30 PM to 9:00 PM | Monday, closed
A fried chicken buffet is only worth the trip if the chicken is fresh. KaiKai Chicken in St Lucia sources their chicken every day from trusted local suppliers, which matters when chicken is the whole meal.
The same care goes into the flavour. The signature yangnyum sauce is made in-house daily from fresh local ingredients, which sets the all-you-can-eat buffet apart from plain fried chicken.
As for when to go, KaiKai is built for evening meals, with dine-in and takeaway options.
Birthday buffet promotions are also on offer when you book in advance online.
Just be aware that they’re closed on Mondays, and the kitchen stops serving food thirty minutes before closing time, so plan your evening around both.
Customer Reviews
The food is absolutely delicious so many wing flavour
This place gets over 1000 customers a week and when we showed up there was two groups of more than 40 people each entering with no one coming out. We were initially worried it might be packed and cramped inside. But to our delight it was spacious and plenty of seating! The food is absolutely delicious so many wing flavour options and with an all you can eat menu you can’t go wrong! There are lots of hot chip combinations and dips and some sides. Will be definitely taking friends and family here in the future!

Will definitely be back here with a bigger group next time too!
Awesome place, super affordable for the value. Had the buffet option with all the sides for $25 and had unlimited chicken and ice tea. Only wish would be that they had a typical buffalo flavour and a super spicy chicken wing, otherwise the flavours were unique and interesting and tasty. The Mac and cheese was also very interesting as a a side along with the fries.
Service was awesome and the guy who served us was insanely friendly and helpful he entire time. Will definitely be back here with a bigger group next time too!
