Despite being in the crowded fast-casual chicken category, Wing Snob has grown to 65 units, concentrated primarily in Michigan and Chicago, a year-over-year change of 54.8%. The menu focuses on fresh, scratch-made chicken wings and sauces, with Cauli-Wings a recent addition and sides including carrots, corn bread, and onion rings a differentiator in a coleslaw-and-fries dominated sector.
