Wingstop Flies Into Second Location in Santa Clarita

Canyon Country wing fans get nation’s leading chicken-wing chain

Wingstop, awarded Best Overall Company 2008 by the American Business Awards, has landed in the city of Canyon Country.  Richard and Angela Fray of The Fray Group, Inc. just opened their second location at 18547 Soledad Canyon Rd at the corner of Sierra Highway in the Albertson Shopping Center.

“Opening our second location allows us to provide jobs in our community. We thank our existing customers and look forward to continuing to serve the Santa Clarita Valley in warm, customer-friendly environments. Our customers constantly tell us our wings are the best! So don’t forget about us before your football-watching parties,” said Richard.

Wingstop’s signature bone-in chicken wings and boneless wing strips are prepared fresh and are available in nine proprietary flavors.  Both types of wings are made-to-order and there are no heat lamps, microwaves or holding bins in the store.  Side dishes are made from scratch and prepared daily in each location.  Party platters are available for catered events such as office parties, family gatherings and sporting events.

The restaurant is open from 11a.m. to midnight daily.  To contact the new Wingstop or to place take out orders, call (661)251-9700.
