Wings and Rings

<a href="https://www.buffalowingsandrings.com/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=buffalo-wings-rings-introduces-new-menu-for-spring-2018-2706341" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Buffalo Wings &amp; Rings</a> has separated itself from the pack in the sports restaurant category by providing an elevated experience and a higher quality product than the competition for more than three decades. Now, the brand is proud to unveil a refreshed menu that furthers the company&rsquo;s chef-inspired commitment to quality. The new Buffalo Wings &amp; Rings menu will be available at all U.S. locations beginning April 16.

&ldquo;All of our decisions are made with the guest in mind, and our latest menu is an example of that focus,&rdquo; said Diane Matheson, Vice President of Marketing for Buffalo Wings &amp; Rings.

&ldquo;In our research, guests told us that this new menu appeals to them due to the more appetizing imagery, a cleaner layout that helps them find their favorites more easily and the fact that it more strongly highlights our quality and variety in categories beyond wings, such as our sandwiches, salads, and starters.&rdquo;

The menu also introduces Buffalo Wings &amp; Rings fans to a couple new options including the new Mexi-Cado Burger which features creamy Mexican Panela cheese, avocado, fresh jalape&ntilde;os, chipotle aioli, and cilantro, served on a brioche bun. Wing fans now have a &ldquo;Saucy Seasonals&rdquo; menu insert to showcase a rotating roster of unique, hand-crafted wing flavors starting with the new &lsquo;Bama White BBQ sauce, a creamy, smoky, Southern-inspired dipping sauce, and a returning favorite, Nashville Hot Sauce.

The refreshed menu was developed through the application of consumer data, analytics and significant research and thoroughly tested within the restaurant before finalization. It features a new design, vibrant food photography, more customer-friendly navigation and a focus on the brand&rsquo;s fresh, quality ingredients. The franchise brand continues to incorporate guest feedback into their research and development efforts. For instance, Buffalo Wings &amp; Rings fans fervently responded to the introduction of Open-Faced Cheese Sticks and their creamy Mexican Panela cheese in 2017. As a result, the same cheese was used in the creation of the new Mexi-Cado Burger. The menu also features upgraded fries with Cajun seasoning, cheddar and bacon, and queso upgrade options. For the salad lovers, the brand provided additional balsamic and olive oil dressings.

&ldquo;While other sports restaurant chains stick to the basics, we are invested in innovation and want the Buffalo Wings &amp; Rings experience to keep our loyal fans satisfied but also entice new guests to treat themselves to a better choice,&rdquo; said Nader Masadeh, CEO of Buffalo Wings &amp; Rings.

&ldquo;We are extremely proud of this next evolution of our menu however we are already looking at more ways to further our goal of being the culinary and experience leader in the industry. We are focused on the future and maintaining that reputation.&rdquo;

CINCINNATI&nbsp;—&nbsp;<a href="https://ownwingsandrings.com/">Wings and Rings</a>, the 85-unit, club-level sports restaurant and bar franchise, has launched its Operating Partner Program (OPP), a strategic initiative designed to reward top-performing general managers with a share of the bottom line while creating a clear pathway toward future franchise ownership.Built to mirror the benefits of ownership without requiring significant upfront capital, the program gives high-performing operators a “sweat equity equivalent,” allowing them to participate directly in the financial success of their restaurants while continuing to grow within the system.“It’s really an opportunity for our best managers to earn a share of the bottom line,” said&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/bob-bafundo-44908a3/">Bob Bafundo</a>, Chief Operating Officer. “In many ways, it mimics the franchisee ownership model. The better the restaurant performs, the more they benefit. It creates true alignment.”The Operating Partner Program is grounded in one of Wings and Rings’ core values: “stand together as family.”With many general managers having more than a decade of tenure, the program reflects a long-standing commitment to recognizing and investing in the people who have helped build the business.“This is essentially a way to reward our best operators with a bigger, better opportunity,” Bafundo said. “It’s about recognizing the people who have been driving this brand forward for years and giving them a chance to grow with us in a more meaningful way.”Beyond individual rewards, the program is designed to strengthen the system as a whole by retaining top talent and creating stability at the general manager level, a key driver of restaurant performance.“Research in this industry consistently shows that stability at the general manager level leads to stability among hourly employees,” Bafundo said. “And that stability ultimately drives guest satisfaction, sales and profitability.”Participants are expected to operate with an owner’s mindset, taking accountability for performance, building strong teams and serving as the face of the brand in their local communities. The program also acts as a stepping stone toward future franchise ownership, giving operators the experience and financial upside to grow within the system.To qualify, candidates must demonstrate at least two years of strong performance as a general manager, consistent operational excellence, a desire to grow with the brand and the ability to make an upfront investment, which varies by restaurant.The Operating Partner Program is currently rolling out internally, with many candidates expected to meet eligibility requirements by the end of the year.As Wings and Rings continues to expand, the OPP reinforces the brand’s commitment to developing talent from within, strengthening its culture and aligning incentives across the system.“This is about investing in our people for the long term,” Bafundo said. “When our operators win, our teams win, and ultimately, our guests do too.”ABOUT WINGS AND RINGSEstablished in 1984 in Cincinnati, Ohio, Wings and Rings is THE club-level sports restaurant and bar with Craveworthy Wings and Rings, My Place Service and a Club-Level Ambiance, all to encourage social connections. Whether it’s enjoying a bit of banter, catching up over the game, finding new craft beer favorites, or celebrating a big win, Wings and Rings is the place where everyone can kick back, enjoy life, and champion everyday moments. With 85 units across the globe, Wings and Rings is changing the sports restaurant category, making elevated food and beverage experiences accessible to all fans.
