| - Searching for the best wings in Oakville is like searching for the little man in the boat on a skinny girl, it's not always easy, but once you've found it you just wanna keep going back.
It was with this attitude that led me to The Wingery on Sixth Line. Tucked away in a forgettable strip mall that notably includes Mario's Pizza, home of the $5 piece of shit pizza. Luckily for wing lovers, there is no terrible food curse on this strip mall.
The wings are plump but not super juicy. They are heavily breaded, buffalo styles and coated with a barely adequate covering of your choice of 20 different sauces. I've only tried a few of the options thus far by as of now, I'd say Hot Honey takes the cake. If you like saucy wings, you'll likely want to (well you won't WANT to) spend the 35-70 cents extra (35 for sloppy, 70 for dripping). Another annoying extra change is the $1.85 extra for splitting sauces in less than 2 lb increments.
Believe it or not, but the best thing on the menu is NOT the wings. Though they are certainly very good, if not great, The Wingery's top item is the Sloppy Chicken Sandwich. A massive chunk of white meat chicken breast, breaded like the wings and rolled in one of your favourite sauces this is a simple but tremendously effective sandwich. It's big, crunchy and tasty as shit. Do it.
Also of note is the Wingery Three Wrap, a trio of small chicken wraps with lettuce, cheese and either ranch, blue cheese, creamy garlic or any one of the wing sauces. The key thing here is you can mix up your sauces on these. A great way to get introduced to the 20 flavours.
All in all, it's a tasty sandwich, which is why my rating is so high. The wings are certainly good, probably the biggest wings in Oakville. However, the extra sauce charges and lack of flexibility take them down a page in my book. But really, that sandwich is very good. You know, for Oakville.
