It was the mid '90s. The world was drowning in an ocean of sports bar wannabes and over-hyped, corporate-y, cookie-cutter bar-and-grill "systems." But then, in South Bend, Indiana, a visionary named Jim ("The Weave") Weaver and some incredibly insightful partners believed they had the key to saving the world – creating a welcoming space filled with big TVs, a diverse menu, genuinely friendly service, and lots of cold beverages containing varying percentages of spirits.Fast forward to today, and Wings Etc. Grill & Pub is not just another franchise; it's a family-friendly grill and pub with a famed menu featuring award-winning jumbo Buffalo wings, signature sauces, fresh-never-frozen gourmet burgers, sandwiches, wraps, salads, over 40 domestic and craft beer selections in bottles and on tap, dozens of large HDTVs tuned to the best sports programming, and a casual, laid-back vibe that makes people want to come in and hang out.Since our founding in 1994 and initial franchising in 2004, Wings Etc.
