Wing Review: Hat Trix Sports Bar
Hat Trix is located at 4923 Southwestern Blvd in Hamburg, merely a forty second drive from my physical office yet I’ve never actually been there before. I decided to change that, ironically on National Chicken Wing Day. A buddy of mine said she was going there and that they had a 50-cent wing special going … Read More
Wing Review: Imperial Pizza
Imperial Pizza is the gospel when it comes to pizza and wings for most people in South Buffalo. Seriously, it’s nearly sacrilegious to speak negatively of it in that part of town and trust me, I’d know. I’m not a fan of their pizza. I’ve considered it quite bland and comparatively overpriced.

Chicken Wing Review/QB Comparison: Potter’s Field
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
Chicken Wing Review/QB Comparison: Wingnutz
Be patient, wing fans because there’s a lot to unpack with this review than any other. Of all the wing joints in Western New York I’ve tried and with this posting we’re closing in on 60, Wingnutz in Kenmore presents the undisputed biggest conundrum yet. It’s located literally inside the Knights of Columbus and is … Read More
