Summer 2019 Chicken Wing Power Rankings
I love chicken wings and love power rankings things even more. After spending my entire life in Buffalo I moved to Florida in the summer of 2016. After trying wings at a half dozen Florida spots and detesting each I quickly realized how much I took wings back home for granted. While living in the … Read More
Chicken Wing Review/QB Comparison: Bar Bill
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
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

People probably go and eat wings there because it’s right next to where the … Read More

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
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
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
