Fair warning Mammoser’s is not for the faint of heart. If it is your first wing experience you will think the sauce is hotter than the freakin sun.
I thought I was an experienced wing eater until I went there.

I’ve been to Bar Bill and it’s the best wing spot I’ve ever been. Also have been to Mammoser’s which is great. Also have hit Gabriel’s Gate which was good. Surprised to see Gabriel’s Gate so far down, I didn’t enjoy it as much as the other 2, but it used to be pretty high on these lists.
I will say, a lot of these are in Buffalo suburbs, so if you are in buffalo they require a car or an expensive uber. One good thing about Gabriel’s Gate is it’s one of the more centrally located good wing spots.

Yo SHOUT OUT to Judi’s for even making this list. The memories of my college days with $.25 wing nights. And then they raised it to $.40 and no one batted an eye because they were so good. Can’t imagine what they’ve had to raise them to nowdays…
hard disagree with duff’s being in tier 2 tho. Compromise and put both duff’s and anchor bar in tier 3 or 4.

I don’t live in Buffalo but i visit a bit for work. As a pinball enthusiast, i end up at pocketeer billiards quite a bit and I’ve been enjoying their wings a lot. Very underrated; should probably rank somewhere on here at least, and there’s plenty to do beyond the wings alone

I hear a lot of praise for Gabriel’s Gate. Haven’t been there personally yet but I’m surprised it’s tier 5.

Gabriel’s gate at tier 5 is criminal

Bar Bill and Wingnutz are fucking garbage

Sal’s Lounge is in a tier higher than Gabriel’s Gate?? I’ve eaten at both, and that’s just objectively wrong.

Thank you for this. Now I don’t have to make a post asking where to go when I get the chance to visit Buffalo.

What does the owner of “The Anchor Bar” even say about never being high on a ‘best wings’ list in Buffalo? I would try to hire a chef or something and get back in the mix of ‘best wings’.

Now take the same pyramid and do blue cheese. Places that make their own rank higher.

The top 3 tiers of this are pretty spot on. My biggest gripe would be that Sonny Reds should be in tier 2, and Gene McCarthys belongs in tier 1, right now at least. They had some consistency issues for a bit, but have been great for a while now.
