Unfussy mobile eatery offering chicken wings with classic & creative flavors, with picnic tables.
"The wings at Tommy Want Wingy have developed an intense following in Austin, with people clamoring for the crispy, frenched chicken. There’s no debate about flats vs. drums here—all the wings start as a drumette before being cleaned into a lollipop with a little bone handle. Yes, they make you feel like a giant snacking on drumsticks. But they’re also crispy, well-seasoned, and easy to eat. Find the trailer parked on the patio of Barton Springs Saloon, which is also conveniently an excellent cold, dark, and cheap place to grab a drink." - nicolai mccrary, matthew jacobs
"The wings at Tommy Want Wingy have developed an almost cult-like following in Austin, with people clamoring for their distinct, frenched chicken wings. There’s no debate about flats vs. drums here—all the wings start as a drumette before being cleaned into a lollipop-like shape with a little bone handle. It makes them easy to eat, which probably comes in handy when you’ve got the munchies after a long night out. There are two locations: one at Cosmic Coffee + Beer Garden, the other at Barton Springs Saloon on South Lamar." - nicolai mccrary, raphael brion
