10 American Restaurant Chains That Need To Come To The UK

8. Buffalo Wild Wings

This is one of those restaurants that does what it says on the tin. Buffalo Wild Wings specialises in chicken wings, both the normal and the boneless varieties and serve over 20 different sauces and seasonings. Sure, you can get wings at faux-American diners in the UK, or at places such as TGI Friday's and Hooters €“ but nothing close to the variety of seasonings and sauces that Buffalo Wild Wings offers. Buffalo chicken is one of the growing food trends in the UK, with supermarkets now stocking American wing sauce in the normal aisles rather than the specialist sections. There isn't another restaurant chain in the UK like Buffalo Wild Wings, although there are a growing number of single restaurants. With this trend only getting bigger the appearance of a chain could prove to be a great success. Their closest major competitor in the British market would be KFC €“ a chain they already compete with in the US. The biggest impact that Buffalo Wild Wings would have in the UK is that like Nando's and KFC it would immediately generate a whole bunch of imitators. Just look down any British high street and you can see a random peri-peri chicken takeaway and probably a Tennessee Fried Chicken too €“ with a Wild Wings UK success, you'd start to see more wing joints popping up all over the place.
