Ahead of Super Bowl LX, PETA has drafted its picks for the game day hotspots serving up the nation’s best vegan wings—and Ann Arbor’s own Detroit Street Filling Station is a winner. The vegan restaurant’s buffalo cauliflower wings come with celery, creamy vegan ranch, and just enough heat to keep fans fired up for the big game.

“Detroit Street Filling Station is dishing up touchdown-worthy gameday nosh with its delicious buffalo cauliflower wings, which are as finger-licking good as they are kind to chickens,” says PETA President Tracy Reiman. “Every winner on PETA’s list shows that doing right by animals and your arteries ain’t no thing but a vegan wing.”

Chickens form complex social structures, dream when they sleep, and worry about the future, just as humans do. Yet every year, hundreds of millions of chickens are killed for Super Bowl Sunday alone. At slaughterhouses, mechanized blades slit their throats—often while they’re still conscious—and many are scalded to death in de-feathering tanks. PETA’s free vegan starter kit—and guide to the best heat-and-eat vegan wings available at grocery stores—can help anyone thinking of making the switch.

Detroit Street Filling Station will receive a framed award certificate from PETA, along with bragging rights. Other winners on PETA’s list include Triangle Tavern in Philadelphia; Fifth House in Omaha; Piper Down Pub in Salt Lake City; and Radical Rabbit in Nashville.

Detroit Street Filling Station is located at 300 Detroit St., Ann Arbor, and is open from 11:30 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday through Friday, and 12 p.m. to 8 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday.

PETA—whose motto reads, in part, that “animals are not ours to eat”—points out that Every Animal Is Someone and offers free Empathy Kitsfor people who need a lesson in kindness. For more information, please visit PETA.org or follow PETA on X, Facebook, or Instagram.
