Moor Pat is a spot in Williamsville with a really cool name and I’ve had several patrons there suggest I add them to my growing list of wing joints to try and rank. Who am I to deny their fans? I didn’t do any prior research and therefore had no idea I was walking into—it’s … Read More
If you listen regularly to my Moran-Alytics Podcast, read my blog wing reviews here or follow me on Twitter (@PatMoranTweets) I’m sure you’re aware of my fondness for chicken wings. In fact, perhaps the only thing I enjoy more than eating wings is power ranking them. This cliff notes version is I was born and raised in … Read More
I’m a big sports bar guy and quite frankly there’s a lack of good ones in Western New York. Lots of spots slap up memorabilia on the walls and call themselves a sports bar, but Mooney’s Sports Bar & Grill on Military Road actually feels like one. I love going to this place for that … Read More
I’m not sure if Potter’s Field is actually located in West Seneca or South Buffalo. What I do know is I’ve been there probably a dozen times to enjoy several alcohol refreshments, especially annually around St. Patrick’s time. What I’ve never done is try their wings, or if I have I was blacked out and … Read More
The euphoria of feeling like I’m uncovering some of the biggest hidden gems for great wings has been my single-favorite part of visiting so many places during this recurring series.

It’s located literally inside the Knights of Columbus and is … Read More
I keep things honest with y’all when doing these. I never even heard of Snyder Bar & Grill in Amherst until Buffalo News sportswriter Jay Skurski suggested we meet up there to have wings before taping a podcast immediately after. I get countless recommendations from fans of places on Twitter and can confidently say this … Read More
My parents taught me to never judge a book by its cover and fortunately I heeded those lessons. Unless you’re from or at least know the neighborhood well, Klimek’s Tavern in North Tonawanda is not an enticing place, outside or inside. There’s not a lot around it either, especially compared to the scenery of a … Read More
Of all the wing places I’d yet to try, wing fans overwhelmingly told me Dwyer’s Irish Pub in North Tonawanda is the place I needed to hit up. Seeing it’s popularity in web articles not to mention Twitter, I finally made a point to take the ride and check them out. My buddy and I … Read More
There’s enough context in the following paragraphs to need a tantalizing lead in. You already know what’s coming, so just read on already… PROS: These were good wings—well above average. I got both medium and medium Cajun and both were cooked well with a solid amount of crisp without blatantly overdoing it for effect. The … Read More
