Chicken Wing Review/QB Comparison: Bar Bill

July 14, 2019By Patrick Moran

On a national level it’s Anchor Bar or Duffs that’s most associated with chicken wings.  However, if you’re a Western New Yorker, Bar Bill in East Aurora is widely known as the most popular spot.  Does it live up to the hype?  Let’s dig in. PROS: Umm, yes it lives up to the hype.  I … Read More

Chicken Wing Review/QB Comparison: Kelly’s Korner

July 12, 2019By Patrick Moran

One of my favorite things about wing spots is that much like the food itself, they come in all sorts of varieties.  You got your fancy spots and your (affectionately known as) holes in the wall.  Kelly’s Korner definitively falls in the latter. Located on Delaware Avenue and Hartwell in the heart of North Buffalo … Read More

Chicken Wing Review/QB Comparison: Anchor Bar

July 12, 2019By Patrick Moran

The first time I had Anchor Bar wings a few years ago I enjoyed them a lot. So much, in fact that I had them Power Ranked in my Top 15 and also ahead of Duffs.  To say that caused a shit storm in my Twitter mentions is an understatement, but I don’t care. My … Read More

Chicken Wing Review/QB Comparison: Big Tree Inn

July 12, 2019By Patrick Moran

Because so many current and former Buffalo Bills as well as various sports media members can be found regularly at Big Tree, with the close proximity to the stadium a big reason why, it’s easy to assume their wings are overrated. People probably go and eat wings there because it’s right next to where the … Read More

Chicken Wing Review/QB Comparison: La Nova Pizza

July 12, 2019By Patrick Moran

As someone raised on the west side and actually having delivered pizza at the original location as a teenager I’ll always have a huge soft for La Nova. However, as a much respected journalist and host of the future award winning Moran-Alytics Podcast, I’d be doing legions (or dozens at least) of fans a huge … Read More

Chicken Wing Review/QB Comparison: M.T. Pockets

July 12, 2019By Patrick Moran

As someone who lived most my life in Buffalo, grew up on the West Side and spent plenty of time living in North Buffalo there’s few things I enjoy more than Hertel Avenue.  I’ll take a beautiful spring or summer day of sitting on a patio and enjoying a cold one at a Hertel Ave … Read More

Chicken Wing Review/QB Comparison: Mammosers

July 12, 2019By Patrick Moran

It was a family affair as I journeyed to Mammosers with four family members in tow.  Each wanted their own take on the wings so we ended up going with a bucket to divvy up, five flavors total.  In the interest of fairness to other places I rate and review, as always I only judge … Read More

Chicken Wing Review/QB Comparison: Dalmatia Hotel

July 11, 2019By Patrick Moran

Hotel Dalmatia is located in Riverside and I hit up in the early afternoon during the week with reinforcements.  My wife, daughter, her boyfriend and my son joined me.  Because of my extensive company we tried five different flavors, though in keeping with my own rules I only counted the medium plus one signature (in … Read More

Chicken Wing Review/QB Comparison: O’Neill’s Stadium Inn

July 11, 2019By Patrick Moran

When one thinks of O’Neill’s Stadium Inn the first thing that comes to mind  is certainly not chicken wings.  That distinction belongs to heavy intoxication before, during or after Buffalo Bills games. Makes sense seeing the locale is literally across the street from New Era Field.  For those who don’t come around other than eight … Read More
