ComputerGuy Posted July 24, 2015 Report Share Posted July 24, 2015 That's the name, but it's not in Canada. It's just to the left of Lake Taco at the gas station on the libramiento. It looks as if it has opened, but while there are plenty of price signs for wings and beer posted outside, they kinda forgot to post their hours. Since that location is someplace I rarely go after dark and wouldn't accidentally spot it open, I'm wondering if anyone has? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred Habacht Posted July 24, 2015 Report Share Posted July 24, 2015 It opens after 11:30 and closes late....We saw it full last weekend....including chairs and tables set out side...parking for Lake Taco was ruined. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slainte39 Posted July 24, 2015 Report Share Posted July 24, 2015 It's on the right side of Lake Taco, as you approach from the drive through area. If you walk in backwards, then it's on the left side. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xena Posted July 24, 2015 Report Share Posted July 24, 2015 I guess wings are the new frozen yogurt. A wings place also opened in the former coffee/ice cream shop across from the fountain at the intersection entering Chapala Centro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slainte39 Posted July 24, 2015 Report Share Posted July 24, 2015 Vancouver Wings? Who wants Canadian chicken wings? Well, somebody does, as Fred says it was full last weekend. Wonder how Jalisco pozole and birria are selling in Vanvouver? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHILLIN Posted July 24, 2015 Report Share Posted July 24, 2015 Wonder how Jalisco pozole and birria are selling in Vanvouver? Pretty good - he has two restaurants now and the reviews are always excellent. Very busy on Fridays (office workers) and Sundays (local Mexican- Canadians) http://www.taqueriajalisco.ca/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I swear I wasn't walking back-asswards. Others may claim I was... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder how Jalisco pozole and birria are selling in Vanvouver? I like Canadian chicken wings. They pay our poultry well to have their little arms cut off, and put them in homes for the disabled, and it's all single-payer. And when you eat one, if it's too hot, it apologizes.

ichbinsaege Posted July 24, 2015 Report Share Posted July 24, 2015 vancouver wings is very similar to wings army. they have them all over Vallarta. They have better beer specials from what I could tell. The new place in Chapala is called The Wings. Haven't been in there yet but there are always people in there.

artsnob Posted July 24, 2015 Report Share Posted July 24, 2015 There was also Wings American on Ajijic Plaza second floor, But did not last, it is closed, so we do not have to endure their extra loud music anymore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mainecoons Posted July 24, 2015 Report Share Posted July 24, 2015 Those wings have to be pretty tough, it's a long flight from here to Vancouver! Just when I think it isn't possible to have another eatery here, bingo! And now the place on the Ajijic pier may be reopening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their wings and chela combo prices at his location are WAY cheaper than Wings Army, though. I haven't been in yet, of course, but the beer selection that Wings Army touts is certainly not visible through the glass. At 55p for 10 wings and a brewski, I'm likin' it. And I don't even drink beer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ichbinsaege Posted July 24, 2015 Report Share Posted July 24, 2015 Wings Army rarely has all the beers the tout on their menu. It never fails when we go there that the ones I want they are out of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ComputerGuy Posted July 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2015 I belee dat. But isn't half the point of the place their beers, especially imported? From the signs on the Vancouver place, it's just "beer" in bottles, mugs, or jugs... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slainte39 Posted July 25, 2015 Report Share Posted July 25, 2015 Probably wings off those Canadian honkers (geese) that come here for the winter.. Like Mainecoons said, pretty tough after all those km. of flight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Localgeekinajijic Posted July 25, 2015 Report Share Posted July 25, 2015 I have been to Vancouver Wings (Originated in GDL in 2009) 3 times since they opened in Ajijic, I have not had a bad experience yet. The staff are attentive and fluent in Spanish and English. The wings are good and even better on Tuesdays with the Beer + wings special for $55pesos.

Mainecoons Posted July 25, 2015 Report Share Posted July 25, 2015 OK so it is Vancouver wings that has the 55 peso beer and wing special. I thought you were referring to the place in Chapala. All these food start ups in the off season just amaze me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slainte39 Posted July 25, 2015 Report Share Posted July 25, 2015 Panino's is full everyday for lunch.....Tony's was full on Sunday. Some places (like Tango) just don't suffer in the off season. Even Domino's, as bad as I think it is, seems to have constant traffic. These wing places amaze me too, as Tony's son, Abraham, still sells a ton of chicken, and then all the pollo places from Chapala to Jocotepe , like the new one in Ajijic that sell the "rostizadas". Mexicans and foreigners love to eat. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Travis Posted August 3, 2015 Report Share Posted August 3, 2015 It looks as if it has opened, but while there are plenty of price signs for wings and beer posted outside, they kinda forgot to post their hours. Since that location is someplace I rarely go after dark and wouldn't accidentally spot it open, I'm wondering if anyone has? I stopped there today out of desperation. (Went to THREE other places this afternoon hungry….all closed….Monday is tough.) Ordered wings and rings and a beer. The onion rings were a mistake I'll never make again….just grab a bag of the frozen version from Walmart and you'll have the same experience. Only ate a few of them and I was really hungry. Half order of wings (five) was "ok" with the #2 (mild) spicy sauce…..and I like spicy but was warned by the signage. #2 was more than spicy enough, believe me. These also seemed a little over-cooked. Maybe some of the other sauces/preparations are more interesting. These were just hot, and I ordered LOW on the picante scale. The beer was the highpoint of the experience. And it was just a bottle of Corona. I can't see myself going back unless I'm with people who really want to go there, then I might tag along. It's just chain junk-food for kids who want to party or who need to eat something post-party. I imagine this chain is popular late nights and especially weekends in Guadalajara. Here? We'll see. Who will win the "Wings War"??? I don't really care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
