Proper spicy buffalo/chicken wings - London

[parabolica]

Any recommendations from anyone? Looking for proper US-style wings opposed to the bland, breadcrumb-coated poor excuses that are found in most restaurants/fried chicken shops.

Edinburgh has Wings which is a family favorite - looking for something similar down here. I know about Blues Kitchen, Sticky Wings, Patty & Bun and Randy's Wing Bar but haven't been to any of them yet. If any wing connoisseurs have been/know of anywhere else in the city area I'd be all ears

Chuck. There's one in Shoreditch and one in Hatchend. I've had the Hatchend one multiple time. Pretty good, only issue is that the wings they use are kinda tiny.

Tried their wings at their Leeds branch in the Trinity kitchen. Was underwhelmed due to lack of flavour and their tiny cup of sauce. I definitely give it another go but it looked better than it tasted.

Sticky Wings is great. Good value, and the wings are excellent. It makes a nice change from the curry houses of variable quality in Brick Lane.

Red Dog Saloon does decent wings with various sauces, several locations in London

Been to the Hoxrton Red Dog and the wings are pretty good.

My favourite has to be Wednesdays at the Big Easy in Covent Garden - £20 eat as much as you can chicken wings with a 2 pint scooner of beer. The voodoo flavour are great and I went last week and managed to get 32 down me. They even gave me a box of 20 to take home!
