Epic Wings Franchise Cost and Requirements for 2025

Background

"Your Neighborhood Wing Spot for Over 40 Years".
Epic Wings started when the Sacco Family packed up their Oldsmobile and headed from New York to California.

They were the first to bring buffalo wings to the West Coast by opening Epic Wings, formerly known as Wings N' Things, in San Diego, California in 1982.
Since chicken wings were unheard of at this time, customers were reluctant to try them so they would stand outside the restaurant with free samples.
They knew customers would be hooked once they tasted them and they were right. Today, Epic Wings is serving up authentic, award-winning recipes from coast to coast.

We never compromise on the taste and quality of our food by using only the freshest ingredients. Our best-selling tenderloin strips and wings are never frozen, breadsticks are made daily and our sauces and dips are homemade. You will never find a freezer, heat lamp or microwave at any of our locations so you can trust that you are getting your food made to order every time. It is the tradition of unwavering quality since 1982 that our customers have grown to love and why we have been named best wings time and time again.

Experience a rapid launch and accelerated cash flow with Epic Wings.
You'll be supported by our robust national and local brand marketing initiatives and raving fans! Benefit from our proactive strategies designed to swiftly drive sales, ensuring a dynamic start and sustained profitability for your new locations.

STATIC ITEM #2

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
