Wings And Tins Darlinghurst — Restaurant in Sydney

This is a review for “Wings and Tins” This is a repost as the business either doesn’t know their own place or is blatantly lying. (Rating also lowered as a result)

Original review:

“Not a bad place if you just want a few wings and a beer. Decent range of beer. It’s down a small lane way and looks very uninviting from the outside. We paid $30 for all you can eat and almost all of us left hungry because they stopped proving food. We even went and asked them for more but we never got any more. Bit of a pity as it could have been quite nice. Probably won’t be back”

Business response:

“We don’t have a $30 all you can eat deal mate, think you’re thinking of the wrong place”

Firstly you do have a $30pp all you can eat meal for events, we had an event there in the last few months. We also have emails from your company (wings and tins, incase you forgot your own business) in which it is suggested that we get the $30pp all you can eat deal. So either you do have it, and were just lying as an attempt to save face, or you don’t actually have it which is worse as your staff scammed us all and we have proof of it in emails. Further to this, a few of the people we were with had been previously for events and had also paid $30pp for the all you can eat wings and they said it was much better previously.

Secondly, given I refer to wings and beer, I would assume it’s pretty clear that I got the right place...

Please take the time to form a proper response this time, rather than blatantly lying to try and save face. As you can tell from my original review, I thought it was an alright place but commented on the look from the outside (personal opinion) and the fact we were let down when it came to what we were told vs what we actually received.

It’s a pity that you had to lie to try and save your company rather than actually caring about customer feedback. However, given your responses to other poor reviews I’d be guessing you will come back with something sarcastic and try and remove all blame from yourself (read their other responses to poor reviews). It appears you may have changed who does your reviews in the last year. All reviews in the last year have stupid, sarcastic reviews but if you look back to two years ago they were genuine ‘thanks for your feedback we are sorry for your experience...’ Not...

This place is a bit confounding to rate. I seek out the hottest wings possible everywhere I go so was super excited about this place. Ordered the russian roulette, which gives you one of their doom wings unlabeled from your main order, for which you have to sign a waiver to eat. Asked the bartender what the 2nd hottest was and they said mango habanero, so I got that as my main.

The wing quality is extremely low - I assume in Australia buffalo wings are not necessarily common which explains the quality, but compared to America they're essentially Costco wings microwaved. And the mango habanero sauce is very weak - it's alright but barely registers on the heat level. So for it being their 2nd hottest option, its Buffalo Wild Wings mango habanero equivalent.

I plowed through the mango habanero very easily, wondering when I'd hit my doom wing. Hit it 75% in and knew it immediately - it definitely registers on the heat level. Not immediately - I finished the wing and thought "eh", but it hit me like an avalanche. Place is worth a visit if only for the russian roulette presentation.

Beer was pretty good too, but saucy cheese fries wings were barely edible (I allowed myself to pig out this night as I ate vegetarian for lunch). All things considered, if you like super hot wings, give their doom sauce a try and enjoy a decent beer. Just don't expect much...

Wings X Tins, Darlinghurst – Beers, Booths & Chicken Dreams 🍗🍺🤘

If you’re into good wings, cold tinnies, and a side of chaos – welcome to your new favourite dive bar: Wings X Tins in Darlinghurst.

This place is cool without trying. Neon signs, graffiti walls, punk rock playlists, and just the right amount of sticky-table energy. It’s gritty, loud, and full of character – basically, the anti-Instagram brunch spot (in the best way possible).

🍺 Each booth has its own little beer can crusher, which is exactly the kind of unhinged genius you didn’t know you needed. Order a tinnie, smash it, repeat. It’s all part of the experience.

🍗 The wings? Elite. Juicy, messy, and full of flavour. You can choose your heat level (from mild to melt-your-face), and they don’t hold back on the spice. Bonus points for their signature sauces – tangy, smoky, sticky goodness. Pair it with a side of curly fries and you’re in heaven.

💀 There’s even a Wall of Pain if you’re brave enough to take on their spiciest wings. Not for the faint-hearted, but very fun to watch someone else suffer through.

🌃 It’s the kind of place you roll into with your mates and end up staying way longer than planned. No frills, no fuss, just damn good food and a vibe that hits different.

Wings X Tins, you get us. We’ll be back for more wings, more tinnies… and more crushed cans...
