Maybe you’ve been craving that perfect crispy bite but your grocery budget says ‘nope.’ Maybe your last takeout order cost more than your streaming subscriptions combined. Or maybe you just want to enjoy game day without your bank account crying foul. Either way, you’re hunting for wings that deliver big flavor without the big bill. Luckily, Norcross has spots where the sauce flows freely and the prices stay grounded.

If you’re heading out for a night in Norcross and want to keep dinner simple but satisfying, grabbing a pizza with friends is a smart move. At Mi Pizza, you’ll spend under 10 dollars per person and still probably have a slice or two left over.

Taco Shop Taqueria

Let’s say you need to tear into a breakfast burrito, tacos de asada, and a champurrado. Taco Shop Taqueria is an authentic Mexican food experience where you can get most things on the menu with only the rumpled bills you find in your pants pockets while doing laundry. These burritos are much better than the ones at other spots, and you don’t even have to stand up while eating them. Pile your friends inside your car at lunch or dinner and get a round of Quesa birria tacos.
Prime Wings

Prime Wings is a solid takeout spot near Peachtree Corners that serves wings, shrimp, rice, and fries—but our favorite is their well-seasoned, crispy wings that stay juicy even when drenched in sauce. The wings run about $12 for a dozen, and they’re big enough to keep you satisfied for a good while. Add some perfectly fried shrimp with a side of their fresh house-fried rice and a peach drink.
Wings N Philly Bistro

Wings N Philly Bistro is like a choose-your-own-adventure game, but for affordable comfort food in a cozy booth-lined space. Wings with heat levels from mild to scorching and the signature “hot-dry” option come in orders of ten for $14, or you can go for something heartier like the $11 Philly cheesesteak sandwich piled high with meat and cheese, or the crispy chicken tenders with a side of potato tornado ($9.50—don’t skip it).
No matter what, add a basket of fries for $4.50 and balance it out with the reasonable prices and friendly service that keeps you coming back.
American Deli
$ | (678) 691-2847 | WEBSITE
For about $12 (give or take), here are some things you can get at American Deli: a delicious 10 piece lemon pepper/hot wing combo with perfectly seasoned wings and crispy fries, or a refreshing glass of their awesome lemonade, or a combination of wings, fries, and one of their refreshing juices. There’s no wrong choice unless you don’t do your wing-eating here.

Cafe J
$ | (770) 448-2220 | WEBSITE
For chicken wings that cost less than $8, you can’t get much better than Cafe J. In particular, we’re fans of the Korean-seasoned Blazer version. They’re outstanding wings of crispy, fragrant, perfectly fried chicken that only soften slightly on contact with the spicy-sweet glaze. And they’re wings that we want for dinner weekly. The Honey Hot option is also excellent, complete with just the right amount of heat and sweetness, all balanced to the perfect flavor with that addictive sticky sauce.
The fried catfish is refreshing and delicious too—a great alternative when you want something different from wings.

The food arrives quickly, and the outstanding service keeps things smooth even when the place gets busy.
It’s a local spot that delivers great food at a great price point, especially during happy hour when appetizers are half off from 3-6 PM.
