2025 Best Wings: River Street Tavern

May 11th, 2025 in Ellijay Restaurant Week

Congratulations to River Street Tavern for winning Best Wings in the 2025 Ellijay Restaurant Week! 🏆✨

Whether you’re a spice lover or prefer something milder, River Street Tavern’s wings are the perfect go-to for any craving. With options for 8 or 12 wings, you can choose from wet or dry, and various sauces and seasonings to fit your taste.

Keep it classic with BBQ or mild sauces for a mellow experience, or heat things up with their blazing hot options for those who like it spicy. Try their dry rubs like lemon pepper, BBQ seasoning, or dehydrated hot for a different twist. Pair these wings with a side of crispy fries, beer-battered onion rings, sweet potato fries, or their loaded potato salad for the ultimate combo.

Wash it all down with one of their authentic handcrafted cocktails, locally brewed beer, or a glass of handcrafted wine. River Street Tavern’s wings are a must-try for any savory craving—come for the wings, stay for the atmosphere! 🍻🔥✨
