Really? I'd hazard a guess that 90% of the chicken wings in deli's are the exact same frozen brand thus all tasting the same.

Yes that's the problem man. The stationary shop opposite DIT aungier street used to do excellent ones but they stopped getting them in for some reason.

So everybody says..i went in there a while back and the wings were overcooked to buggery..they were stringy,tough and extremely salty.

Surprisingly Eddie Roackets do decent chicken wings and you usually get plenty of them.

Eddie are crap in comparison IMO.

Elephant & Castle are the best in Dublin I have had. OP think they do takeaway if you can get there from Wexford street, its not too far especially if you are on a bike.

Unlike them to be bad. Maybe give them one more. Their burgers and salads are nice also.

Tribeca in Ranelagh also is great. AFAIK its owned by same people as E&C

Apologies run by ex staff of E&C. Got my info mixed up. The menus are very similar altogether. Tribeca is wonderful. Love the location and the food is superb.
