How to order keto chicken wings at Wingstop
To order keto at Wingstop, choose classic wings over boneless wings, tenders, or chicken sandwiches; these are all breaded and high in carbs.
The other main way you can ensure that your wings are keto-approved is to make low-sugar sauce choices.
Jumbo wings and sauces
Nutritional information is based on two wings with your choice of sauce. Wingstop keto-friendly wing options include:
- Atomic jumbo wings (2g net carbs)
- Cajun jumbo wings (0g net carbs)
- Garlic parmesan jumbo wings (2g net carbs)
- Lemon pepper jumbo wings (0g net carbs)
- Louisiana rub jumbo wings (0g net carbs)

Sauces to avoid
Some Wingstop sauces contain higher amounts of carbohydrates. Try to avoid these chosen sauces on a keto diet.
While these carb counts don't seem TOO high, remember that this nutritional information is only for two wings; you'll likely eat more!
Sauces to avoid include:
- Hawaiian (6g net carbs)
- Hickory smoked barbeque (8g net carbs)
- Mango habanero (8g net carbs)
- Spicy Korean Q (6g net carbs)
Keto side dishes
If you're looking to round off your meal at Wingstop, you're pretty limited by their keto-friendly options. Their side dishes contain high-carb ingredients like potatoes that will blow your daily carb count!
Still, there is some hope! Wingstop keto extras include:
- Veggie sticks, AKA celery and carrot sticks (5g net carbs)
- Blue cheese dipping sauce (3g net carbs)
- Ranch dipping sauce (2g net carbs)
Keto drinks
Wash your chicken wings down with a low-carb drink. Keto drink options at Wingstop include:
- Diet Coke (1-2g net carbs)
- Lipton unsweetened tea (0g net carbs)
- Gold Peak unsweetened tea (1-2 net carbs)
Ordering tips for Wingstop
Ordering a keto meal at Wingstop is pretty straightforward. Just keep in mind a few key details while ordering.
1. Avoid boneless wings
Make sure when you order to ask for classic Wingstop jumbo wings.
The boneless wings are all breaded and have between 12 and 18 net carbs per 2 wings!
2. Skip the sandwich
The crispy chicken sandwich is tempting, but there isn't a way to modify this meal option to make it low-carb.
The chicken patty is, unfortunately, breaded. Even if you remove the bun, it still has a super high carb count.
Skip the sandwich and indulge in what Wingstop is best known for – the wings!
3. Choose veggie sticks
The side dishes at Wingstop focus heavily on carbohydrates (I'm looking at you, french fries!).
All of the Wingstop fries, as well as the cajun fried corn, are not keto-approved.
If you're ordering a combo meal, choose a side of celery veggie sticks and carrot sticks! You can even add ranch or blue cheese dipping sauces.
4. Eat dessert at home
While none of the dessert options at Wingstop at keto-friendly, don't deprive yourself of something sweet!
I have a ton of keto diet-approved dessert recipes you can make at home.
5. Beware of sugary drinks
Most of the drink options at Wingstop are packed full of sugar; this means they're likely not suitable for a keto diet.
If you're thirsty, choose one of their unsweetened tea options, diet coke, or good old-fashioned water.
