The Local - GA 30306

I made a special trip to The Local from out of town (Memphis) based on The Studio Review ranking these as the best wings in the US, and I was absolutely not disappointed! Despite normally avoiding bone-in chicken, I decided to give wings a real shot here, and they completely converted me. I ordered the Lemon Pepper wings with ranch and tater tots, and everything was fantastic. The wings were perfectly crispy, incredibly juicy, and beautifully seasoned, easily living up to the hype. It was a loud, lively dive bar atmosphere, which normally isn’t my scene but it was absolutely worth it! The staff were all extremely nice and welcoming, which made the visit even better.

Legendary. I dream of the wings when I’m out of town and it’s one of the first places we come to when we’re in Atlanta. Megan is a bartender there who tbh restored my faith in humanity she went so above and beyond with the chillest unbothered vibe. 20 yummy vibey stars.

The wings here, are everything! I had the opportunity to try the buffalo jerk wings which will blow your mind. It is seat yourself and the seating went quick, the night I was there. Music was on point. One thing that is unique is how they announce when your order is ready! They definitely have a good time with this. Overall the atmosphere, food, and service were good. I will definitely be going back. My picture does the wings no justice but this just means you have to go try it for yourselves. You won’t be disappointed unless you show up and they run out of wings.

It’s honestly embarrassing and my family looks down upon me for not having been here after having lived in Atlanta on and off since 2018. The wings are fire my dudes and ladies. I went here for a solo dinner date with myself (can’t miss one of those). On the docket for this evening were 10 sun dried / bbq combo flavored wings which very much lived up to the hype. I also selected ranch for the dressing since I’m major league Midwestern. This was paired with a classic 3 taverns Prometheus which was nostalgic as I had a longer-than-necessary sour beer phase. I’ll be bringing the missus back with me next time, you already know. The cashier was very friendly and helped me gain confidence with my order since I don’t often use “sun dried,” “wings” and “big boy hungry” in the same sentence. It is also a karaoke bar and I do hear some Beer For My Horses in my future

Stopped by The Local on a Monday night and had a great time! Pretty cool spot to grab drinks and some simple snacks. They didn’t have wings that night, but the karaoke made up for it, lots of oldies from the 2000s and more, which was a fun vibe. The crowd was super chill, nice people all around, and the customer service was on point. Bonus points for being open late, which I love! Definitely a solid place to hang out.
