Welcome to the Wing Wonderland
Hey there, food lovers!
We’ve got some super exciting news to share that’s sure to make your taste buds tingle. Say hello to the newest member of the CRATE Walthamstow family – Bare Bones! This vibrant food kiosk, which opened its doors on February 3rd, is already a hit among our food hall visitors, and we can totally see why!
Bare Bones is the brainchild of David Luck, who is on a mission to bring you the ultimate comfort food experience with their mouth-watering buttermilk chicken wings and indulgent desserts. “We’re excited to bring Bare Bones to Walthamstow and introduce a new crowd to the best wings they’ve ever had,” David shared, and we couldn’t agree more!
Whether you’re a wing connoisseur, sauce enthusiast, or just searching for that feel-good food, Bare Bones has something delicious up its sleeve. The philosophy here is all about keeping it simple – great food, done right! And trust us, they deliver!
Nestled within the vibrant CRATE food hall, Bare Bones perfectly complements Walthamstow’s diverse dining scene. It’s all about creating a welcoming space where people can gather to eat, drink, and enjoy each other’s company – the ideal environment for Bare Bones to thrive.
Now, let’s get to the star of the show: the wings! Bare Bones specializes in twice-fried buttermilk chicken wings and tenders that are crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and bursting with flavor. With nine signature in-house flavors to choose from, you’ll be spoiled for choice! Whether you’re craving classic Buffalo with Blue Cheese Ranch or feeling adventurous with Hot Honey or Teriyaki, Bare Bones has your cravings covered.
But wait, there’s more! The fun doesn’t stop at wings. Get ready for loaded sides like Cajun Fries, Buffalo Fries, and the legendary Loaded Hash Brown Stacks, which are crispy hash browns topped with all your favorite fixings. And for those who love a sweet twist, don’t miss the Chicken & Waffles – it’s already a fan favorite!
And because no meal is complete without something sweet, Bare Bones has you covered with their dreamy desserts. “Our soft-serve ice cream machine is a game changer,” David adds with a twinkle in his eye. Picture this: warm, gooey brownies topped with creamy ice cream or classic waffles drizzled in syrup. It’s the sweet ending your meal deserves!
Bare Bones kicked off its journey in January 2025 with its first location in Rochester, and they’re quickly expanding their wings (pun intended!) to Walthamstow, with plans for even more locations in Canterbury, Ramsgate, Eastbourne, Maidenhead, and a West London restaurant on the horizon!
We’re thrilled to have Bare Bones in the CRATE community! Their unique offerings blend perfectly with our vibe, and trust us – those chicken wings are divine. So why not come down and try them for yourself? We can’t wait to see you at Bare Bones for an unforgettable food experience!
