We rolled in, ready to take full advantage of the $9.99 Unlimited Appetizers deal... but apparently "unlimited" means unless we're out of stuff. Mozzarella sticks? Gone. Onion rings? Don't even ask. So... 3 out of 5 ain't bad, right? (It is.) Got our apps eventually--without silverware, napkins, or even a "sorry." I guess finger food just means literally use your fingers. Meanwhile, a poor couple sat down near us at 6:15 and were told they couldn't place a food order until 6:50 because the takeout screen was full. What kind of nonsense is that? Dine-in guests told to wait for takeout to clear? Make it make sense. Honestly, the staff looked like they were in survival mode. This location is clearly understaffed, overwhelmed, and about one chicken wing away from total collapse. Corporate needs to step in before this place turns into a ghost kitchen with a full dining room. read more

The food here is usually good and the servers are always nice, but the overall experience can be really frustrating. It almost always takes way too long to get a table, and once you're seated it still takes a long time to get drinks and food. The staff seem friendly and are doing their best, so it feels more like a management issue than anything else. With better organization and management, this place could be a lot better because the food and servers themselves are solid. read more

Prepare to pay significantly more for liquor then you have at any other location. They bill full price singles on a double

Great service from alcazar super kind and food was good Will definitely be coming back! read more

Honestly, the service is incredible. I do not understand the bad reviews. I highly recommend this place for many reasons.

I give them one star because the bartender was really nice and the beer was clean and cold. The wings were absolutely the worst I have ever had in my entire life. If I hadn't had good wings (including my own home made) I would never order wings again for the rest of my life. It was like trying to eat pieces of garden hose. I'll never return to Buffalo Wild Wings. Yuck! read more

Staff were amazing. Place was clean. It's Friday night, so we were expecting busy staff with long wait times, but we're pleasantly surprised. Food was exceptional. We loved the new "bird dawgs". Looking forward to seeing the new building when it opens next month. read more

The food is really good they give you a lot of croutons and Caesar salad and oh boy, can those wings get spicy food was great, but it took a while for food read more

Michelle Alcazar was so fun! Great attitude, fun and made the night so fun we stayed longer!!!

This was actually the best BWW I've had for a long time. I got some chicken sandwich that was pretty good and the kids went to town on their chicken and fries. We ate outside on a nice day, but the seating area seemed to channel the wind (so our items blowing around got annoying). The staff was friendly and they were following all of the COVID rules. read more

Come on man!! 10 boneless for 12.30 and they come out the size of your thumb nail. Seriously small portion. Took a picture of my plate and the staff watched but no one said a word. We really used to like this place but portions keep getting smaller and smaller. read more

See all

Food was good but it took an hour and a half to get it waitress was slow and never around couldn't keep the drinks worst bdubs I've ever been to read more

the food was great but they did not put enough seasoning. the service is really good. the ambience is ok at best could be better.

I know that restaurants are having a challenge hiring and maintaining enough staff to take care of customers. The wait time after ordering was about 2-3 times greater than usual. I feel that the wait person should have told me (and my party) that there would be a time delay in preparing the order. While we were not in a particular hurry, it would have been nice to know the situation. Once the food arrived, it tasted excellent and was prepared in an appropriate manner. read more

Everytime we order from here its always wrong or dead food! I work in a resturant and I know things get rough but damn it's like they just don't care. read more

Wings had no sauce on them, brisket on the burger was very dry. Took a while for our waitress to show up and take our order when there was only 3 tables took 20 mins for waitress was playing on her phone. read more

We waited 10 minutes to get seated in an almost empty restaurant. After that waited over 15 minutes and didn't even get someone for a drink offer. 2 servers were sweeping up tho! 3 hours before close. We had to walk out. I never give 1 star reviews but this is 100% deserved. read more

NOT HAPPY AT ALL. Staff was very rude and the hostess rolled her eyes at me while we were talking. Walked in with a group and asked if we could be seated separately to follow COVID guidelines and immediately they became passive aggressive. Told management we would remain in our seats and not move chairs and the only explanation they could give us was "we can't do that". Every single member in our party was wearing our mask properly and there were other people in the restaurant who were sitting at tables next to other people. read more

We had 12 people. 6 adults and 6 teens. Sign said can only seat parties of 6. So we were wling to divide evenly, 6 adults at one table, 6 teens at another table with 6 feet between. Server said no, so I asked for the manager. He came out and said the Governor would not them do that. The place was almost empty. MI governor never said that. Bdubs turned down over a $200 bill plus tip. We went across the street to El Ranchero and they seated us at 2 tables next to each other. We don't live in Petoskey. but like Bdubs. Locals told us no locals went to Bdubs because of the poor service. Will never go there again. read more

Slow and inattentive service even in the afternoon when the restaurant wasn't busy. We waited with our kids for an hour for our food to come and our waitress only talked to our table once or twice. When the food finally arrived, it tasted good, but the wait was so long it was hardly worth it. The only way I'd give any money to this place again is via takeout. The dine in experience was just frustrating. read more

Buffalo Wild Wings - Lemon pepper, honey mustard, and honey bbq wings. - Chicken Wings Near Me - Petoskey, Michigan

This BWW is always great. Hubby and I usually stop here and have wings and do some day drinking while we are in Petoskey. We haven't been disappointed yet. Doesn't seem like a very busy BWW like the locations by me. (At least while I've been here) This last time we sat at the bar, along with my Sister In Law. We had beers, wings, & watched some sporting events. The male bartender was very friendly; suggesting different beers to try, having conversation with us throughout our time sitting at the bar. Everything was really great! read more

Specifically, went here to watch Denver Bronco game as we were traveling. Waited over an hour for them to see if they would put game on TV. Finally, asked for a manager to come to table. Another 30 minutes pass. The manager then proceeds to tell us they can only get 10 of the 12 games playing and we're not going to put the Broncos game on. Could of gone to a neighborhood bar and most likely watched the game. Pretty saaaaaad! While we were waiting also heard a gentleman say he got a ride and was dropped off to watch Titan game. Said he called ahead and was told game would be on. No he didn't get to watch his game either. He finally left like we did! Go somewhere else to watch football! Won't be back. read more

Buffalo Wild Wings - Chicken Wings Near Me - Petoskey, Michigan

Family birthday dinner for a 17 yr old. First visit. Probably would not seek this restaurant chain out again. Wings were fine; Asian Zing sauce is sweet & spicy. I liked the Jalapeno Poppers, but the breading is kinda tasteless. Not a fan of the fried pickles (same tasteless coating). The vegetarian at the table liked the Black Bean Burger. Everyone else pretty much had wings and seemed to like them. Lots of sports on multiple screens to choose from. Really high noise level, but it was a Saturday early evening. read more

Disappointed. How do you mess up a simple salad? Use waaaaaay to much dressing. It's literally dripping. read more

Buffalo Wild Wings - a salad in a bowl - Chicken Wings Near Me - Petoskey, Michigan

I'd like to start off by saying I used to be a server in college, so I always tip other servers very well, especially if they are working hard to keep up when they're slammed. Today was not the case. Our server was managing three tables. It took him ten minutes to greet us and ask for our drink orders. He only returned to the table to give us the bill. He basically threw the food on the table and walked away and did not leave any silverware. I got up from our table twice to ask for silverware and refills because our server kept sneaking away to the back of the house. I lied, I got up three times because I had to find another server to close out our bill. The sever I found unfortunately found our server to close out the bill rather than doing it herself so that added another twenty minutes to our stay. So hope you like your $2.00 tip bud you certainly earned it. I cringed at even giving you that much. Super rude and not attentive at all. You either need more training or need to find another place to make money man. read more

This is the highest rating I've ever given to a Bdubs. First off the service is pretty decent. 4/5 The biggest bonus is the fact that they will actually put sauce on your wings. Most bdubs won't add enough to soil your fingers. So props on that aspect bdubs. The menu is obviously the same as every other chain. Good work Would recommend, would return read more

Pretty sad experience here today. The last two times here have been subpar with no one paying attention to people waiting to be seated, to the point where the servers avoid eye contact in order to ignore seating people. Very slow service, very long wait for food. Despite that the wings and food are still BWW quality so we come back. Today though, we actually got a good server Michelle. She was attentive from the beginning and continued to assure us for a full 45 mins of still waiting for wings that our order is coming.... When the food finally came it was obviously not BWW regular quality crispy traditional wings. The first bite was just sad. They were not good. They were fatty and wet and soggy. After the first few we began finding uncooked centers. Yuck! Told server, she was nice about it but only offered excuses. Complained that the manager should be the one addressing this and she just profusely apologized. As we were leaving the manager did come over and was nice offered a $25 gift card so that was at least something. With all the issues there I think I'll pass! We may try this place again next winter because if they can't handle the level of business they have now this summer will be a disaster. Good luck Petoskey BWW. You used to be my absolute favorite place but I will drive to Gaylord for my wings from now on if I even risk BWW again. Hopefully, my family doesn't get sick from this! read more

Placed a online order for 2:10 and didn't get my food till 2:27... this has happened more than once that I get there and my food isn't ready for another 10-30 minutes read more

The bartender had no idea how to make a signature drink. She also had to look up a green tea shot. I was patient and willing to let that all go.. until she decided to use racist slurs. I had to pack up my wings and leave with huge disappointment. read more

I visited the BWW in Petoskey for lunch and it was a mistake. The service was not good at all. It took forever just to get my drink and then is was super weak. The syrup needed to be changed in the pop machine and they just kept serving it. My Pepsi looked more like ice tea. During this time a group of filthy, smelly people came in. It was repulsive, the wait staff placed them right next to us. Our requests to move to a different table were denied. When my food finally arrived it was not that warm. I have to wonder how long it spent on the counter in the kitchen before the waitress was bothered to bring it out. During this my friends and I used the online music service but the wait staff kept cancelling our songs and playing whatever they wanted. We were not reimbursed for the songs that we requested. The poster below, Jack S, works there. He even uses the same picture in his username. Real classy to treat guests that way much less threaten them like you did on Yelp. Overall, my trip to BWW was very memorable. Too bad it wasn't a positive one. read more

I ordered to-go and when I came to pick it up the girl who helped me was amazing. She was super nice and friendly and was a possibly the best I've had when picking up a to-go order from a restaurant. I'm not from the area so I didn't know what the place was like and the reviews are fairly limited. While the service was great... I possibly had the driest chicken I've ever had in my wrap. The chicken was had next to no sauce and was just tough to eat. Just overall disappointed with the actual food part of the experience. read more

I like the wings at BWW, but here was horrible! I couldn't believe how careless the staff is about their customers. We had to wait 20 minutes just to taste 3 sauces, then she disappeared on us for another 20 before we could order. Get our wings, and they give us boneless when we ordered traditional. Top it off, we want to pay and go, took my fiancé 30 minutes to find her, he asked someone else for the bill and he said only our waitress can, and he doesn't know where she's at, no he won't get her!!! Needless to say, for the first time in my life, no tip was left. This isn't what BWW is like, but apparently the one in Petoskey doesn't care. Maybe new management and new crew would help, until then, you won't ever see us walk in the door again. Glad they're opening one in Gaylord!!!!! read more

A week ago I had over a 90 minute wait for a take out order, and half of it was never made. I pointed this out to the employees working, who proceeded to blame it on their ordering system. Once they verified I had paid for everything online, they went back to the kitchen to have the missing items made. I had to wait 10+ more minutes, wasn't offered a drink while I waited, and when I got home found out they made my order wrong and still left stuff out. I filled out the complaint form on the website, and as of today haven't heard from anyone either at the local BWW or from corporate. I like the BWWs we've been to in mid- and southeast MI, but this one is lousy. read more

Amazing food and service! Place is clean with delicious food and very nice and respectful servers! Our server named Hannah was very kind and brought whatever we asked for very quickly with good quality! 10/10 Would absolutely eat here again! read more

Where do you start? This place is a dump, the overall food quality has never been great, now it is overpriced. They have raised prices 4 times in 2 years. This particular location has a terrible staff, horrible music. I have paid for rock it songs only to see them deleted by the song nazi manager. I will not be back. BWW is on my list with franchise boycott list w/Starbucks. I gave it one star because the doors are somehow still open. read more

I have been to many Buffalo Wild Wings over the years and by far the Petoskey location is my favorite .The food is always good ,always fresh and always served quickly. I can't say enough about the staff .When I walk in I feel like Norm on Cheers .Thank You read more

I don't know what all the complaining is about. I stopped in on a Wednesday and had no issues at all. I sat at the bar and ordered a beer and a side of wedges. The wedges came out hot and quickly. I ordered a second beer and shortly after placed my to-go order. My wings were ready to go before I finished my drink. Maybe all of the negative posts have more to do with the actual patrons and not the establishment. Or there could be new management with a better focus on customer service. Whatever the issue was it seems to have been resolved. Don't let the negative posts dissuade you, it's your typical bdubs. read more

For the price we pay, the food is boring and not very tasty at all. Practically tasteless. Never going back if I can help it as unimpressed.

Great food-go on Tuesday they have a special. (Also try their chocolate cake YUM!) Apparently the place to go to watch ANY kind of sport too lots of tvs. read more

Worst service EVER! Don't waste your time... like we did in a booth for 15 minutes, while 3 waitresses passed by us numerous times without anyone addressing us. Also side note: there was only 2 other tables in entire restauran. read more
