Wingstop UKI, the restaurant brand that doesn’t play when it comes to flavour, opens its first site in Wandsworth today. To celebrate the highly anticipated opening, the first 100 people through the door will receive free chicken wings.
Located in Southside Shopping Centre, a premier retail and leisure destination in the heart of Wandsworth, the new two-storey 3,896 sq. ft site will host 90 covers. With over 8.7 million visitors annually, Southside is perfectly placed to welcome Wingstop UKI’s bold flavours to one of Southwest London’s most popular food and drink spots.
Diners can expect the full menu of wings, tenders, burgers and sides all cooked to order and hand-sauced-and-tossed in Wingstop UKI’s bold flavours, including the brand-new Dragon’s Breath, available for a limited time only. Milkshakes, freestyle drinks, Camden Town Beer, churros are also on offer.
The opening marks Wingstop UKI’s third dine-in site in Southwest London as it continues to expand across the capital. Wingstop UKI currently operates 90 sites across the UK and Ireland, employing over 3,000 people, with plans to grow to as many as 200 sites within the next five years.
The brand’s popularity is driven by its standout product and culture-led marketing that resonates with a younger audience. From music and fashion to sport, Wingstop UKI continues to build cultural relevance through authentic collaborations, events, and partnerships.
Chris Sherriff, CEO at Wingstop UKI, said: “Wandsworth has been on our radar for a while, and we’re thrilled to finally bring Wingstop UKI to Southside. With millions of visitors coming through its doors every year, it’s the perfect location to serve up our bold flavours to a new wave of fans.
