The wings are on point, fried pickles are to die for, all in all a shareable meal. We had a great server Angela S. It was a Tuesday afternoon in the airport so it wasn't that busy. We went to another location while on vacation andbits seems these prices were compatible to the "outside world" I got the wings mild, fried pickles and a bloody Mary. I was really bummed i couldn't use cash to pay. I just went to Canada and its better to use your cc there. read more

Gary provided the best service today for lunch! I'm not a fan of touristy joints, and Anchor Bars are just that, because the food isn't all that great, and after the visit and dinner I had at the Anchor Bar in Niagara Falls this week for dinner, I really never wanted to return to one. But flying out of BUF, this is one of the only places to eat, and sadly, it's the highest rated restaurant in BUF Airport. The menu is very simple, uninventive, and loaded with items that are probably frozen, just needing a quick fry to serve. So I asked Gary what was really good and he suggested their club. When it came out it was beautiful and quite large too! I opted for onion rings instead of pasta salad as a side dish and that clearly was the better choice, as there were tons of them and they looked amazing! Flavor of the sandwich was incredible! The turkey on it was fresh and tasted great. The lettuce and other ingredients were perfect, as fresh as well! The bread was perfectly toasted and highly flavorful and the basil mayo brought it all together quite nicely. That sandwich was easily a 10 out of 10! The onion rings (though they appeared to be frozen, then fried) were great too, and the BBQ style dipping sauce they came with was just OK, slightly too sweet for me. So, I got a ramakin of ranch too and that was great. Overall, great lunch was had! I'll definitely come back the next time I'm in BUF and hopefully Gary will be there to provide the excellent service he gives! read more

Food 4/5 Service 5/5- friendly server, fast Ambiance 4/5 Pricey for a Caesar salad (airport prices so no surprise, with tip $22) with grilled chicken, but huge size and decent taste. I wanted the 'healthy choice' on the menu. Service was fast thankfully as I needed to catch a flight from the Buffalo Airport. Due to flight delays I was stuck at the airport for nearly 6 hours and the tummy started rumbling. I much prefer other Anchor Bar locations in WNY. This was a meal more out of necessity. But overall a good experience. read more

Anchor Bar - Grilled Chicken Caesar salad - Chicken Wings Near Me - Buffalo, New York

Stopped into the Anchor Bar with two friends who had never experienced Buffalo food before, and it ended up being the perfect introduction. I ordered the black and bleu turkey burger with fries, and it was delicious -- great flavor, cooked well, and surprisingly satisfying for a lighter option. My friends went all‑in on the Buffalo classics: beef on weck and wings. They loved both and got the full "taste of Buffalo" experience in one meal. Service was friendly and quick, even with the steady crowd. The decor is Buffalo‑themed from top to bottom -- exactly what you want from a place with this much history. Tons of TVs, a long bar, and that lively, game‑day energy. There's also a big merch section with very elevated tourist prices, but it's fun to browse. Overall, a great stop for visitors and locals alike. Solid food, fast service, and a full dose of Buffalo atmosphere. read more

DELICIOUS! If you're in the Buffalo airport you must go here! Best wings I've ever had! Refreshing to grab a bite & a beer in the airport while waiting for my flight! Would love to go to the original Anchor Bar too in Buffalo that's not in the airport! Will have to visit that one on my next trip! read more

I visited Anchor Bar while waiting for my flight that was delayed several hours. The service was incredible - Kim was so nice and helpful! Refills were quick, her knowledge of the menu was great, and she was all-around awesome. The food was far better than you'd expect for airport food - it rivals many regular restaurants. The onion rings were amazing, the soup was great, and the Beef on Weck was pretty good! All-in-all, if I'm ever hungry at the Buffalo Airport, this is where I'm going! read more

Pleased to have an airport opportunity to get the iconic Anchor Bar wings since I didn't make it to a downtown wing joint this trip. Pros: The combo plate of Wings and Beef on Weck met my Buffalo culinary needs. The wings (medium) were expertly fried to crispness, and sauced well. I even got an extra on the plate. Celery and blue cheese proper temp and good traditional complements. Weck roll and horseradish both authentic and well done. Beef generous for the plate. Bartender friendly with great personality. Cons: absolutely chaotic when it gets busy. Luckily I was able to squeeze through to a seat at the end of the bar. Luggage everywhere, long line to get a table. Limited beer choices - though the local IPA I had was perfectly fine. Mac salad "meh", and disappointing to see the costs to substitute it. Au Jus was in a small container and a bit salty. Overall, a little pricey even for airport prices ... but good enough value that I'd return. Crappy reality TV stunt show on bar TV. Net - net: come here to get your buffalo wings and Weck fill if you missed out elsewhere. If you are seeking a quiet relaxing place while awaiting a flight, this may not be the place. read more

Anchor bar is amazing. They won the top prize in the chicken wing contest in Buffalo for chicken wings!!!!!

We were immediately seated by the hostess and welcomed by our waitress. Less than five minutes after placing our orders, our Caesar salads were in front of us: So fast! The lunch was just right while waiting for a replacement plane! read more

Beef on Weck is a must have on my all too rare trips to Western New York. Unfortunately, this time around, I didn't have time. Fortunately, there's an Anchor Bar at the Buffalo airport, so all is not lost! I realize that Anchor Bar is known for wings, not beef, but I can get wings in Chicago. I can't get Beef on Weck. And this restaurant has a good reputation, so why not? Unfortunately, this was a somewhat less than stellar experience. I get that beef is a little pricey these days and portion size is one of the less obvious ways restaurants address that. And I won't begrudge them that. But there are limits.. The roll was not much bigger than a McDonald's burger bun, topped with fine salt and not a caraway seed in sight. It was filled with about as much beef as a McDonald's burger patty. Consistent with the fast food theme, the beef had a distinctly Arby's flavor, and not in a good way. Some kind of weirdly processed, oddly seasoned meat product, not at all like the roast beef I've had for so many years at so many restaurants in the area. The silver lining, such as it is, was that the horseradish packed a solid kick. To add insult to injury, I was charged $18.49 for this salty Arby's roast beef sandwich, not $16.49 as shown on the menu. I'd strongly encourage you to get your beef fix at any number of excellent local restaurants, some very near the airport. This ain't that place. But, as I said, the horseradish was good. read more

This location is inside the airport, next to the boarding gates. Food was all right. We ordered an appetizer and the Anchor Bar Wings. 8 wings cost $19.79. Each wing had just a touch of orange sauce that was visible. Service was poor to nonexistent. From the moment we stepped in to when we left, lunch took about 1 hour and 10 minutes. Servers did a great job avoiding eye contact and conversation for the first 20 minutes. When our neighboring table mentioned that we needed some service, we finally got our order in. 25 minutes after entering the place, we received our drinks. 8 minutes later, our food arrived. A couple of tables down, the guests arrived about half an hour after us. They received their bill before us. The difference was we didn't look like everyone else here. Getting our bill was a bit faster than getting our order in. Take out would have been faster than this experience. The only reason we dined in was because we were hours early for our flight. If you like a loud bar, loud music, and cramped seating, close enough to touch neighboring tables' food and share in their conversation, this place is for you. We won't be returning. read more

May be the original wing place but from the best, not even average. Wings must be pre-cooked they were mushy inside. Out of an order only 1 flat, ordered extra saucy and still dry on the outside. Blue cheese cup was tiny. read more

Anchor Bar is the one thing that makes this airport so great! This is a satellite of the original famous Anchor Bar in Buffalo that our best friend of blessed memory loved as he lived in Buffalo for a while. My wife and I both had platters with the Beef on Weck and the Buffalo Wings which were amazing. We tried two of the local Buffalo beers on draft we loved which were the Big Ditch Hayburner and the 42 North Borderland IPA and tried the one Canadian beer we didn't try which was Labatt Blue that we didn't like as much. The service was also great and very fast. read more

Anchor Bar - Combo Platter with Beef on a Weck and Buffalo Wings - Chicken Wings Near Me - Buffalo, New York

Wanted to get a bite on our way home from a trip. We didn't get to make it to the location in town so this felt like an okay alternative. Sadly, it was a bust. We were on a schedule so we ordered at the kiosk hoping that would help with timing since there was a live to be seated. It took 30 minutes to get our food, which was cold. It's all sadly very subpar. Better wings can be had at any bar. The fries were limp. The roast beef was tender, but again, cold and sad. Stop somewhere in the way to the airport, and you will be much happier. read more

Like most airport restaurants it's all about the time you stop in. We were here just ahead of the lunch crowd and had a great meal and friendly, on time service. Wings weren't drenched in sauce so they had a nice crispness when biting into. I liked Duff's just slightly better but both were 5 stars. Even bought a bottle of sauce to take home and can't wait to try it on some homemade wings. read more

There aren't a lot of options in the airport so I decided to give Anchor Bar a try. I was in Buffalo so I thought I'd get buffalo tenders. What a disappointment! I've had better tenders out of the freezer section at the grocery store. They were so flat and had almost no meat. I ordered medium sauce but it just tasted like bbq sauce. Flavorless bbq sauce. The bleu cheese dipping sauce tasted like tarter sauce. The fries were good and my waitress was friendly. They should not serve this ever again. Especially in Buffalo read more

As I was waiting for my morning flight and with limited dining options, I decided to try this restaurant. The restaurant decor was okay.... just another restaurant in an airport. However, the music is very inviting with a mixture of country music. Great selection. The restaurant was not busy plus the menu is more limited for it's breakfast options. Matt, server, took my order right away. I decided on the Breakfast Sandwich meal which included breakfast potatoes and a beverage so I opted for a soda. Within a few minutes, the meal was delivered. The meal was okay, however, it really did hit the spot. Matt was friendly while he checked in with me. Overall an decent restaurant for breakfast. read more

Fun to eat at an Anchor Bar even if it was in the airport. The wings were top notch- definitely better than any other airport wings I've had. Obviously there is a reason they are famous! The mozzarella sticks were good- but nothing unusual. The roast beef on weck, was simple but tasty. The weck bun has salt and caraway seeds on it. So good with horseradish and au jous. The Mac salad was different than Hawaiian, but it fit the meal perfectly. Our server was great and was very efficient and friendly. read more

Ok. Airport restaurant so I'm assuming mediocre at best but IT WAS GREAT! I've eaten at the original anchor bar and honestly wasn't expecting it.to be as good but it was delicious! Our server was Bobby and he was quick and efficient. We had the chicken wing soup (GET IT!! YUM) and the "wings n weck." I've had so many wings and beef on weck this trip and I have to say these were up at the top of my list! The roast beef was super tender and juicy and the horseradish had the best burn,, the wings very crispy, and the soup was fantastic. I strongly recommend eating here esp if you're getting your last Buffalo Food fix before heading back to wherever you came from! read more

Aside from the reputation for this being the home of the original Buffalo Wings, which were awesome by the way, this is a must stop while in the Buffalo New York area. Stopped by after visiting Niagara Falls and the food, drinks and service were excellent. The wings were big and crispy under a not-too-spicy original sauce. My wife likes the drummies and we received our order with them exclusively at no extra cost. We even had plenty extra to have the next day as leftovers. The decor is impressive inside and provided plenty of photo opportunities. read more

So I'll start with ambiance - very cool visually. It's fun to look at the wall and see all the celebrities who have visited over the years. Next, the smell *sad face* the restaurant kind of had a vague sewage smell that felt evident when you walked into the dining area. Drinks - bloody Mary was amazing. It was honestly everything that my Buffalo wing loving heart could ever want. A Bloody Mary with a chicken wing inside? I mean, come on. Appetizers - we got the sampler platter and thought every thing was good. The pizza logs were a group favorite. Main event and what you more than likely came to find out, THE WINGS - ahhh I was disappointed! The flavor itself was nice, but were undeniably either over cooked or dried out or maybe both? I am a wings cooked well done kinda lady but these were way too much for even me. They were crunchy - but not in a good way. And the blue cheese was really mid for an establishment that claims they were the home of the original chicken wing. Service - just fine and pleasant enough. All in all our journey to original home of the buffalo wing was a disappointment. Next time I think we'll try duffs! read more

I mean, is it REALLY fair to review an airport-based outlet of a world-famous chicken wing place? Probably not, but I was passing through Buffalo and figured I ought to try the Anchor Bar. I don't like chicken wings (I know, I know: the HORROR!), but I still wanted to try it. As far as options at the Buffalo Airport go, this wasn't a horrible option. We were seated immediately by a friendly hostess. The prices are higher than they should be, but you're paying for location and convenience. My hubby opted for the hot wings and fries, and I got the chicken sandwich with macaroni salad. Our food came out very fast, which is a huge plus at an airport. The place wasn't very busy that day, but the kitchen was quick. Everything was hot and looked appealing, and our orders were both 100% correct. I had requested the buffalo sauce on the side because I'm not a fan of spicy food, and it came in a small container with a lid. Seems dumb to waste plastic like that, and I would not have asked for my sauce on the side had I known it would come in wasteful packaging. My chicken sandwich was unmemorable. A thin, fried chicken patty topped with cheese, lettuce and tomato was very standard-issue. The meat reminded me of the traditional chicken sandwich at Burger King. it wasn't high quality, but it was hot, crispy, and fresh. The bread was the best part, toasted and very soft. The macaroni salad was good and made for a visually appealing side. Overall, this meal wasn't something that was craveable, but it was passable. Hubby enjoyed his chicken wings but said they were far from the best he'd ever eaten. He didn't love them, but said they were okay "for an airport restaurant." The fries were delicious, but neither of us has met a fried potato we didn't like! I guess if you want to say you've tried the Anchor Bar, you probably ought to go to the original when in Buffalo. But I couldn't leave the city without trying it. Maybe next time I'll make an effort to dine outside of the airport. read more

This place had delicious food. We got a platter of 50 wings. Half spicy garlic parm and half medium hot. Daughter got chicken parm spaghetti and said it was good. She finished it and usually doesn't. Son got a burger and liked it. Wife had chicken tenders. They were tenders like we were used to. Almost like breast fillets. Not her favorite but she enjoyed. I tried them and I liked them. I really liked the wings. I ate a lot of them. The pepperoni pizza was also decent. Not my favorite in town but solid. Friendly staff. We visited this location as opposed to the original because it is less busy and feels cleaner. read more

On our last night in Niagara Falls we decided that we needed to try Buffalo Wings since we were in Buffalo. The experience was terrible. Our Uber told us about Anchor Bar & their history of being the creators of Buffalo Wings, but after looking at the reviews on Yelp, I chickened out. Today we saw an Anchor Bar in the airport & figured - even tho it's not the original location & even tho airport food is usually a poor representation of what the owners of the franchises and restaurants put out on a daily basis in their establishments - maybe just maybe it was a sign. The wings were good. Not anything super special & I've had equally as good, if not better in my hometown of Maryland but it's one more thing I get to check off my list. Buffalo Wings in Buffalo? Check. read more

Had flown to Buffalo for a race in Rochester back in May, and visited this restaurant inside the Buffalo Airport right before boarding on my return flight back. Busy place, and there wasn't much available for seating. I managed to squeeze in at the bar, though. From there, everything was perfect! The draft Labatt Blue Light was great, and my wings n fries were delicious! The best part was how fast they were. In terms of airport efficiency, this place certainly gets 5 stars. Also, the service was outstanding. I've yet to have a better experience at any other airport restaurant, hence the star review! Great job! I would recommend stopping here for sure before boarding. read more

We are so glad we had time to eat here today. We were seated right away. Ordered the Beef on a Weck and the Buffalo Wings along with onion rings and macaroni salad. The beef sandwich was a bit salty, even for a kimmelweck roll, but it was easy to brush off. The beef was served medium rare and oh so tender. The au jus poured on the bun made it even more juicy. The macaroni salad was cooked perfectly too--pasta al dente, not mushy. The wings were served hot, crispy and juicy. The medium was just perfect. The celery was cold and crisp, very fresh! And the onion rings were big and crunchy. Perfect! And they are offering dining in now. No more take out only! Ask for Penny, she was friendly, knowledgeable and efficient. read more
