ST. MARYS, WV (LOOTPRESS) – Wings Etc. Grill & Pub is set to open its newest franchise location in St. Marys on Monday, July 15, with a grand opening celebration that includes a special offer: the first 50 dine-in guests will receive free wings for a year.
Doors open at 11 a.m., and guests must be 18 or older to qualify for the promotion.
The new restaurant, located at 1006 2nd St., Unit C, marks the second Wings Etc. location in West Virginia and the 82nd store overall for the brand, which operates in the Midwest and South.
The 3,500-square-foot location features more than 30 big-screen TVs, a pickup window for online orders, family dining, and a full-service bar.
Wings Etc.’s menu includes award-winning jumbo wings, 22 sauces and rubs, burgers, wraps, salads, seafood, appetizers, and more. The drink menu features signature cocktails and 16 beers on tap.
Daily food and drink specials will be available, along with weekday lunch specials from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Chad Winebrenner, who opened the state’s first Wings Etc. in Vienna in March 2022 with the PM Company, will oversee the new location. The St. Marys restaurant is expected to bring 50 to 60 new jobs to the area.
“We want to engage with the local schools and sports teams and really lean into the community,” Winebrenner said.
“With a fun, laid-back atmosphere and an exciting menu that offers something for everyone, we expect the St. Marys location to become a popular place for family and friends to get together.”
“Chad and his team know how to foster a welcoming and family friendly spirit,” said Wings Etc. CEO Rob Hensmann. “Wings Etc. is committed to providing delicious food, genuine hospitality and real value, and we look forward to becoming a solid contributor to the St. Marys community.”
Regular business hours will be 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. Monday through Thursday, 11 a.m. to 12 a.m. Friday and Saturday, and 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. on Sunday.
