Server jobs in Kentucky

Wings Etc. is a newer sports pub in Russell, Kentucky that joined the community May 2019. Our location is now hiring positions in our great fun and great food family Restaurant.

About our Franchise:

In the past 15 years, the ‘Bar and Grill’ segment has exploded onto the foodservice scene. Back when the sitcom “Cheers” was popular, a sports bar was a bar with a TV in the corner. Today, sports bars are driving growth among full-service restaurant chains, and even traditional family-style restaurant chains are trying to catch up to the sports bar momentum.

Of course, there are two or three large ‘national’ sports bar players, which continue to build consumer awareness and enthusiasm for the sports bar experience. And that creates an extraordinary opportunity for people looking to open a successful, proven, well-managed sports bar franchise.

That’s where the Wings Etc. franchise opportunity starts getting interesting. Since 1994 Wings Etc. has carved out an extraordinary brand position in its home market areas. In the past few years, we’ve been expanding into nearby markets and have successfully competed “toe to toe” with the big full-service chains, offering a more relaxed, fun, slightly irreverent sports bar experience. Our combination of simple operations, a diverse menu, daily food and drink specials, and national quality marketing provides a strong competitive advantage over independents, and positions Wings Etc. as a popular alternative to highly programmed, cookie-cutter national chains.
