Wing size
By mtornblom on 02/06/2008
I think overall, people who are not from this area expect big, oversized wings that look like they were on steroids. In preparing good wings, you need a uniform, small wing so that it cooks properly. The wings should be nice and crispy on the outside, and cooked fully on the inside. I am from Colorado, and most of the wings out here (aside from lame sauce), is the fact that the wings are huge, hence, you end up with a undercooked, "raw", nasty wing. I ordered some sauce to make wings, and when I attempted to buy the wings, all I can find are wings that look like a damn chicken leg. I am going to go to a real butcher to see if I can find small, standard wings? The joy of these wings is in the sauce, not how much chicken you can milk out of the wing. Anyway, enjoy your big, raw, wings anyway!

Why is this place famous?
By hurley907 on 07/05/2007
Wings might of started here but they were improved everywhere else. Very crummy wings, average places such as chilis make better wings. I was very sad, i had high hopes coming into the anchor bar. It's crummy, old, dirty, and sad much like the city and the people of Buffalo New York. Perfect place for the italian loser city to hang out in.

Not all it's cracked up to be

I live in the area and have been to the Anchor Bar exactly twice. The first time the wings were small and not that good. Decided to give it another try before writing it off. Second time we were ignored by the staff for seating. We were passed over 4 times while the hostess seated other people. We finally said forget it and left. Won't go back.
