Small menu, but the wings are outstanding. Just ask them for how you want them ( i.e. extra hot, extra crispy, etc) and they will do it! Worth the trip!

Our first time visiting coincided with a Bills game, and instead of picking up our wings, we stayed and thoroughly enjoyed the place. So cozy and welcoming! Great wings, too!

We came from Ohio and stopped here to eat on the way back home. It was absolutely amazing. The atmosphere was great. The service was great and we even met a waitress from OHIO. I would definitely recommend stopping here if you are jn the area! We ordered a pizza and I'm telling you it was so darn good. The cheese was so cheesy and gooey and just all in all a good experience!

Well originally Nancy owned the bar when I made my first review of 5 stars. God bless, may she rest in peace. Since my last review she has passed on and the bar has been bought by Mike. luckily Mike is know in community and has kept sportsmans doors open and operating. Thank God. since ordering here the wings have been on point still the drinks are worth the money. The same Ole people are worth the company and conversations, and always the feeling of being welcomed is a great feeling. Mike is a good owner willing to converse when issues are arise and willing to solve them quickly and respectfully with no issues which is a huge bringer to the table. As a local guide and huge food enthusiast it's important to be good to your customers. Thanks Mike and wish you the best business. Come check them out.

Found this place after the bills game on way home. Super awesome vibe! Emily was so down to earth and made us feel so welcoming (even as opposing fans lol). Great ambiance, nice bar, friendly ppl. We got a burger and 10 wings. Both were delicious! Burger was nice and charred and wings were perfectly crisped and don’t get me started on the Bleu cheese! Officially a Buffalo blue cheese believer! Chrystal Lynn the cook kills it! She’s great. Overall an amazing spot to catch a game and get a bite. Love the homey, rustic and warm vibe. Almost cabin-like... IMO, a bit pricey as we racked up 36 just from 10 wings, a burger and 1 Yuenling. So not sure if they charge 6 for the beer or upcharge for condiments. But for a small dive bar we expected it to be a tad cheaper. But overall because of quality it’s worth it. Will be back! Thx Em. You have a great welcoming vibe, really appreciate that as nowadays it’s rare to find. Definitely recommend the medium wing flavor! Chrissy has it down! Cheers y’all!
