Refund Policy
Effective Date: June 24, 2026 | Last Updated: June 24, 2026
1. Overview
At Wing Snob, we are committed to delivering the highest quality food and dining experience to every customer. We understand that there may be occasions when an order does not meet your expectations, and we want to ensure that any issues are resolved fairly, promptly, and professionally.
This Refund Policy outlines the terms and conditions under which Wing Snob will issue refunds, process exchanges, accept cancellations, and handle disputes. By placing an order with us — whether online, by phone, or in person — you agree to the terms set forth in this policy.
Our practices are guided by applicable United States federal and state consumer protection laws, including regulations enforced by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) under the FTC Act (15 U.S.C. § 41 et seq.), as well as any applicable state-level food service and consumer protection statutes.
2. Eligibility Conditions for Refunds
Wing Snob will consider a refund request valid and eligible under the following circumstances:
- Incorrect Order: You received a food item or order that is materially different from what you ordered (e.g., wrong flavor, wrong quantity, wrong meal).
- Missing Items: Part of your order was not included in your delivery or pickup bag.
- Food Quality Issues: The food you received was demonstrably unfit for consumption, undercooked, spoiled, or contained foreign objects not part of the intended meal preparation.
- Allergic Ingredient Error: Despite a documented allergy notification submitted at the time of ordering, Wing Snob failed to accommodate your allergy and the food contained the allergen in question.
- Order Not Delivered: For delivery orders, your food was never received despite confirmation of a completed delivery.
- Duplicate Charge: You were charged more than once for the same order due to a system or processing error.
- Significant Delay: Your order was delayed beyond a reasonable time frame as communicated at the time of order confirmation, and you no longer require the item(s).
Refund eligibility is determined at the sole discretion of Wing Snob management. We reserve the right to request documentation, photographs, or other evidence to support your claim prior to approving a refund.
3. Timeframes for Refund Requests
To ensure a fair and efficient refund process, all refund requests must be submitted within the following timeframes:
| Order Type | Refund Request Deadline |
|---|---|
| In-Store / Dine-In Orders | Before leaving the restaurant or within 2 hours of receiving your order |
| Pickup Orders | Within 2 hours of confirmed pickup time |
| Delivery Orders | Within 3 hours of confirmed delivery time |
| Online Pre-Orders | At least 2 hours before scheduled order fulfillment time |
| Duplicate or Billing Errors | Within 7 calendar days of the transaction date |
Requests submitted outside of these timeframes may not be eligible for a full refund. Wing Snob will evaluate late requests on a case-by-case basis, and partial accommodations may be offered at our discretion.
4. Non-Refundable Items and Services
Due to the perishable nature of food products and the operational requirements of our business, the following are generally not eligible for refunds:
- Food items that have been consumed (partially or fully), unless a quality or safety issue is identified.
- Orders where the customer simply changed their mind after preparation has begun.
- Custom orders or special preparations that were made to your specific instructions and delivered as requested.
- Promotional, discounted, or complimentary items received as part of a special offer or loyalty reward.
- Delivery fees, service charges, and convenience fees charged by third-party delivery platforms (e.g., DoorDash, Uber Eats, Grubhub) — these are governed by those platforms' own refund policies.
- Catering deposits once food preparation has commenced.
- Gift cards or prepaid credit once they have been redeemed or used toward a purchase.
- Condiment, sauce, or add-on items that were correctly included per your order instructions.
5. How to Request a Refund (Step-by-Step)
To request a refund from Wing Snob, please follow these steps carefully:
-
Step 1 – Contact Us Promptly: Reach out to Wing Snob as soon as possible within the applicable timeframe outlined in Section 3. You may contact us via:
- Email: [email protected]
- Website: wingsnobhouse.rest
-
Step 2 – Provide Order Details: Have the following information ready when you contact us:
- Your full name
- Order number or confirmation code
- Date and time of the order
- Order type (dine-in, pickup, delivery, or online)
- Payment method used
- Detailed description of the issue
- Step 3 – Submit Evidence (If Applicable): Where possible, please provide photographic evidence of the issue, such as photos of incorrect items, missing items, damaged packaging, or food quality concerns. This significantly speeds up the review process.
- Step 4 – Review Period: Our team will review your refund request within 2 to 5 business days. We may contact you for additional information or clarification during this time.

6. Refund Processing Times by Payment Method
Once a refund has been approved by Wing Snob, the following processing timelines apply depending on your original method of payment:
| Payment Method | Estimated Processing Time |
|---|---|
| Credit Card (Visa, Mastercard, Amex, Discover) | 5 to 10 business days |
| Debit Card | 3 to 7 business days |
| Apple Pay / Google Pay | 3 to 7 business days |
| PayPal | 3 to 5 business days |
| Cash (In-Store Only) | Immediate refund at point of sale or store credit issued same day |
| Gift Card / Store Credit | Credited back to the original gift card or as new store credit within 2 business days |
| Third-Party Platform Payment | Dependent on the platform's refund timeline (typically 5 to 10 business days) |
Please note that while Wing Snob processes refunds promptly upon approval, your financial institution or card issuer may require additional time to reflect the credit in your account. Wing Snob is not responsible for delays caused by third-party financial institutions.
7. Partial Refunds
In certain circumstances, Wing Snob may issue a partial refund rather than a full refund. Partial refunds may apply in the following situations:
- Only a portion of your order was incorrect, missing, or unsatisfactory while the remainder was delivered correctly.
- A food quality issue affected only part of your meal, and you consumed the rest of the order without complaint.
- A delivery delay impacted only part of your order (e.g., one item arrived cold while others were acceptable).
- A discount, promotional credit, or coupon was applied to the original order, reducing the net amount eligible for refund.
- Catering or large group orders where only specific items or services failed to meet the agreed-upon standards.
The partial refund amount will be determined by Wing Snob management after a thorough review of your complaint and the evidence provided. We will communicate the partial refund amount to you in writing before processing.
8. Exchange Policy
Wing Snob is pleased to offer order exchanges under the following conditions:
- You received the wrong item, and the correct item is still available.
- The exchange request is made promptly upon discovery of the error — ideally within 30 minutes for in-store or pickup orders.
- The original incorrect item is returned (for in-store situations) or documented (for delivery situations).
Exchanges are subject to food availability and kitchen capacity at the time of the request. If the correct item is not available, Wing Snob will offer you a comparable substitute of equal or greater value, store credit, or a refund as an alternative.
Please note that exchanges are not available for items that were prepared correctly per your order but that you no longer wish to consume due to a change of preference.
9. Cancellation Policy
We understand that plans change. Wing Snob's cancellation policy is as follows:
9.1 Standard Orders (Online, Phone, In-Store)
You may cancel a standard order and receive a full refund if the cancellation is requested before the kitchen begins preparation of your order. Once preparation has started, cancellations may not be accepted, or only a partial refund may be issued to cover materials and labor costs incurred.
To cancel an order, please contact us immediately at [email protected] or visit us at our location. Time is critical — the sooner you notify us, the greater the chance we can accommodate your cancellation.
9.2 Catering and Large Group Orders
- Cancellation 72+ hours before scheduled service: Full refund of all deposits and payments made.
- Cancellation 24 to 72 hours before scheduled service: 50% refund of total order value; the remaining 50% will be retained to cover preparation costs.
- Cancellation less than 24 hours before scheduled service: No refund will be issued. However, store credit may be offered at Wing Snob's discretion.
9.3 Pre-Scheduled or Advance Orders
Orders placed in advance for a future date may be cancelled with a full refund if the cancellation is made at least 2 hours before the scheduled pickup or delivery time. Cancellations made within 2 hours of the scheduled time will be subject to standard cancellation terms.
10. Dispute Resolution Process
Wing Snob is dedicated to resolving all customer concerns amicably and efficiently. In the event of a dispute regarding a refund, charge, or service issue, the following process applies:
