The Buffalo, New York-based restaurant chain is claimed to be the creator of the Original Buffalo Wing.

Established in 1935 by Frank and Teressa Bellissimo, this restaurant currently serves more than ten million pounds of chicken wings annually across its franchisees.

Anchor Bar franchise & development company CEO and president Mark Dempsey said: “Leesburg, Virginia is a remarkable location. We are thrilled to have the opportunity to give the community a chance to experience our James Beard Gold Medal Award Winning Wings.

“We are excited to support Xenith Management Group in their new endeavor along with Jim and his entire Anchor Bar Team. We look forward to a long, fruitful partnership.”

In 2022, Xenith Solutions’ owners opened a new company, Xenith Management Group, to diversify their holdings.

Xenith Solutions and Xenith Management Group CEO Lee Shabe said: “The Anchor Bar in Leesburg, Virginia, gives us the opportunity to do both by creating a local restaurant celebrating our Veterans and First Responders while creating over 100 jobs for those in our community.”
