Chicken Wing Review/QB Comparison: Glen Park Tavern
I took a drive from Orchard Park to North Buffalo on an early Sunday evening to hit up KO Sports Bar & Grill for wings. I was excited all the way until walking up to the door and finding the place was closed. Dejected and also wing hungry in the car I started thinking of … Read More
Chicken Wing Review/QB Comparison: The Wellington Pub
I met a friend at the Wellington Pub one week earlier and didn’t have wings, reason being I didn’t see them on the menu and assumed they weren’t available. Perhaps I should’ve read the thing a little more focused because there’s most definitely wings to be had. I went back again the following Saturday after … Read More
Chicken Wing Review/QB Comparison: Adolf’s Old First Ward Tavern
Adolf’s on South Park Avenue in the heart of the Old First Ward isn’t designed for outsiders. Don’t get me wrong, that’s not to say people from neighborhoods other than the Ward aren’t welcome, but it’s blatantly obvious the locals are the one buttering the bread here. It’s old and run down, just like we … Read More

Chicken Wing Review/QB Comparison: Gene McCarthy’s
Folksssssssssssssssss. I didn’t come to this review alone. My man Maniac and DJ Supreme from Trainwreck Sports joined me for a little Moran-Alytics Podcast collaboration.

Chicken Wing Review/QB Comparison: Goodbar
Goodbar is part of the legendary Elmwood strip on the west side that has served legions of drinkers for several decades. As a Buffalonian I don’t call it a stretch to call it part of the fabric of the city of Buffalo. But—– how were the wings when I tried them? Read on to find … Read More
Chicken Wing Review/QB Comparison: Coles
Quite literally I’m writing the exact same lead-in I did for its next door competition/counterpart, Goodbar. “Is part of the legendary Elmwood strip on the west side that has served legions of drinkers for several decades. As a Buffalonian I don’t call it a stretch to call it part of the fabric of the city … Read More
