It seems summer might really be nearing its end. At least according to Reny’s who is now officially stocking Halloween merchandise. While we’re not exactly thrilled with this situation, there is one thing that’s easing the pain: football season. While we love the healthy competition (minus all those head injuries, perhaps) there’s only one thing that makes it better: WINGS! If you’re ready to really kick things up for football season, you’ll want to head to these spots for the best wings in Maine.
If you like your wings with options, you'll love this spot. Choose between boneless or with bones, fried or spiced up. And, then enjoy some of the craft beer brewed right on the premises. Visit them at: 570 Main Street, Bangor / (207) 945-3730
While this spot is typically known for their Memphis-style BBQ, they serve up a pretty great Buffalo wing as well! Get the biggest bunch you can and enjoy them with plenty of blue cheese. Visit them at: 300 Water Street, Augusta / (207) 622-8899
A unique pub in Portland, this place is a bit off the beaten path if you tend to stick to the Old Port.
Check it out for an awesome beer list and mouthwatering Buffalo wings. But prepare for two pounds of chicken wings with blue cheese. The most unique option? The PB&J wings! Visit them at: 540 Forest Avenue, Portland / 207-772-0300
Binga's might just be THE place for wings in Maine. You can choose from two different varieties. Either breaded with a house spice blend (traditional) or tossed with a dry rub and smoked. Customize any of them with a HUGE list of sauces. Just be sure not to order the "'08 Fire" sauce or you'll be crying the whole way home. It's the hottest sauce on the menu. At least it's gluten free? Visit them at: 77 Free Street, Porland / (207) 699-4263

Big Rick offers the best variety of wings in the north. Either boneless or bone-in, and just about any sauce you could want. Twenty, to be exact. Spicy, sweet, peppery or tropical. And, if you're still hungry, you can grab a burger for the ride home! Visit them at: 284 Main Street, Madawaska / (207) 728-9098
You might know Blaze better for their wood-fired pizza, but the hidden secret is that their wings are something special. They're a delicious combination of baked and grilled, making them smoky and moist. Visit them at: 18 Broad Street, Bangor / (844) 302-9157
