Just in time for kick off at Super Bowl LX, PETA has drafted its picks for the game-day hotspots serving up the nation’s Best Vegan Wings—and is now sharing all the delicious details about the winners.

In Seahawks territory, fans can head to Life on Mars andindulge in the fully vegan cocktail bar’s delectable Cauliflower Wings, which are beer-battered to perfection and tossed with a choice of buffalo, BBQ, mango habanero, or garlic-butter parmesan sauce. Eagles fans can dry their tears while enjoying the savory Seitan Wings at Triangle Tavern in Philadelphia, which come smothered with either buffalo or country sweet sauce; and Bills fans can root against the Patriots while they chomp on the crispy fried Wings at Strong Hearts in Syracuse, New York. 

Rounding out the list are finger-licking offerings from coast to coast—including the Sichuan Hot Honee Wings at Fifth House in Omaha, Nebraska; the Carolina Gold Fried Jackfruit at Radical Rabbit in Nashville; the Buffalo Cauliflower Wings at Detroit Street Filling Station in Ann Arbor, Michigan;the Florida Wingz atKarelyn’s Vegan in Orlando; the Drumstick Wyngs at Korny Vibes in Houston; the Seitan Wings at Watercourse Foods in Denver; and the Spicy Tiger Wings at Piper Down Pub in Salt Lake City.

“These tantalizing vegan wings are sacking the competition, delivering game-changing flavor while leaving chickens in peace,” 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.”

Each winner will receive a framed certificate from PETA along with bragging rights.

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.

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