Wingstop Restaurants, Inc. is a chain of nostalgic, aviation-themed restaurants where the sole focus is on chicken wings. Wingstop locations are decorated following a 1930s and 1940s "pre-jet" aviation theme. The restaurant chain was founded in 1994 in Garland, Texas, and began offering franchises in 1998. Since then, Wingstop has grown into a chain with more than 1,000 restaurants either open or in development. The chain is headquartered in Dallas, Texas.

Wingstop's national spokesman was Troy Aikman, three-time Super Bowl Champion and NFL Hall of Fame inductee. It was acquired by Gemini Investors in 2003, who sold it to Roark Capital Group in 2010.

The menu consists of wings, boneless wings, and chicken strips.

The sides include vegetable sticks, fresh-baked yeast rolls, coleslaw, potato salad, baked beans, and fries.

Dips are ranch, blue cheese, hot cheddar cheese sauce, honey mustard, and the sauces for the flavors.
