Wingstop Is Opening Its Second Australian Store in Penrith With Free Wings and Exclusive Merch for Early Visitors
From Eastern Suburbs to Outer West, Wingstop is expanding its sauce-drenched domain across Sydney's chicken scene.
It feels like just yesterday that the US-based masters of all things sauce and wings broke new ground in Sydney. You might remember the TikToks, lines going around the block for almost six months, as hundreds of hungry patrons visited to get their hands on the Australian debut of Wingstop. Well, history is about to repeat itself, this time on the other end of town in Penrith.
Wingstop's second Australian store is opening in the west, after fans across the city cried out for their suburb to be home to store number two, but Sydney's outer west was outspoken in its demand. Steve Kehl, Country Manager of Wingstop Australia, said, "From the moment we opened Kings Cross, Penrith became one of the most requested locations in the country."
"Western Sydney told us loud and clear that they wanted Wingstop, and we've listened. The community energy out here is unmatched, we cannot wait to bring the flavour to Penrith, and then to the rest of Australia as we continue our plans for over 110+ locations across the country."
Opening soon, there'll be an opening day extravaganza, just like that fateful day in Kings Cross back in May. The first ten visitors in the door will get free wings for a year, plus exclusive merch for the first 50 and free wings on the day for the first 300. As the day goes on, DJs will keep the energy up alongside giveaways and more exclusive merch, so don't skimp on an afternoon or after-dark visit.
At the end of the day, though, we're all here for the wings, so what's actually going to be on the menu? It's poultry aplenty, with classic and boneless wings and tenders available in packs ranging from three to 50. They're tossed with one of twelve sauces: Lemon Pepper, Hickory Smoked BBQ, Hawaiian, Garlic Parmesan, Louisiana Rub, Spicy Korean Q, Mild, Hot Honey Rub, Cajun, OG, Mango Habanero and Atomic.
Get them with a side of signature seasoned fries (with seven choices of seasoning), house-made cheese or ranch dips, or cajun-spiced corn. Add on a cold drink or even a chocolate brownie to help the wings go down. If you don't make it on the day, keep your eyes peeled for future in-store events or for where store number three will open.
Wingstop Penrith can be found at 565 High Street, Penrith, 2750, open from 11am until late daily. For more information, visit the Wingstop website or social media pages.
