Often when I think of where I want to go when desiring a cold beer, hot wings, and conversation with strangers, the Wooden Nickel Tavern almost immediately comes to mind.
They have some of the best wings in town, a stellar Fish Friday special, burger deals a couple of days a week, and heck, if you get cash out of the ATM to pay for your tab they’ll give you a free drink. Right on!
Anniversary Party
It’s been one of my go-to spots in recent years and it’s heartwarming to know that the establishment is celebrating its 40th anniversary on Saturday, March 9 at 1908 S. Country Club Rd.
During the 40th anniversary party, Wooden Nickel will have multiple local vendors set up on-site from noon – 5 p.m., $2.50 beer specials throughout the day (Bud Light, Coors Light, and Miller Light), and $0.50 wings from noon – 8 p.m.
With a spacious patio, plenty of tables and chairs, a jukebox, and pool tables, it’s a downright party on Saturday (and any other day of the week).
Every other day of the year, the Wooden Nickel has a daily Happy Hour from 3 – 6 p.m. and then a daily special, too.
One of the more popular specials is Wings Wednesday — it’s $1 a wing — and the flavors include Hot, BBQ, Garlic Parmesan, Teriyaki, Mango Habanero, Hot BBQ, Honey Mustard, and Lemon Pepper.
Daily Specials
- Monday: $10 Burgers + Fries
- Tuesday: Green Chili Special
- Wednesday: $1 Wings
- Thursday: Tacos Dorado Special
- Friday: Fish Tacos and Fish Basket Special
- Saturday & Sunday: $9 Wings + Fries or $10 Burgers + Fries
So, gather up your friends and head down to the Wooden Nickel on Saturday, March 9 to congratulate them on 40 years.
