Came here for happy hour with a couple of people after work! They have an extensive menu with a lot of different wing flavor options as well as brews on tap. They have old bay fries which are always delicious. I had the hot honey boneless wings and they were tasty with a little kick to them. The service was okay and could've been better. We all asked for separate check at the beginning and the server said okay and then made it a hassle to check out at the end bc she didn't separate it at the start. They also had trivia going on that night which was cool

My pretzel nuggets with American cheese dip were great. I wish everyone served pretzels with American cheese. The grilled cheese was great as well. Big drink menu and lots of TVs. The person I was with got the Kona burger. The bacon was undercooked. He wound up not eating it. The main issue was with the service. It took a while for the server to approach our table for our order. Then my food came out and 45 mins the side salad came out for the burger. Then another 15 mins later for the burger. So it took over an hour to get a burger and we wound up not eating together. They have outside seating and an inbetween area which is where we sat.

Loaded tots - a lot of calories but sometimes they hit the spot.

We've stopped here a few times since they opened. We've never been wowed but also never let down either. They have the typical wings, fried appetizers, nachos, etc. you would expect. A lot of different beers on tap. They do have tv's everywhere so you can catch the game while kicking back a few cold ones. We usually do the Loaded Tots, tater tots are my kryptonite. I love them when they're cooked right and seasoned. What takes these over the top is the sour cream drizzle and scallions. These are pretty good. My wife usually wants nachos which I've never been impressed with theirs. They're not bad, just mediocre (although I do like to get the hottest wing sauce and dump some on mine which helps them). The service is good on most occasions but on a few occasions it's been great. We've never had bad service or a bad experience. I think as far as bar food is considered, they do better than most in this area. If you're looking for a fun place to hang out that is consistent, this is a safe bet.

Ordered 20 wings. Korean, barbecue wings and garlic wings ,plus fries . The wings were full of meat and flavor. The Korean were sweet with a little kick. The garlic was very mild. The fries were crispy and had just enough salt. We ordered it to go so they had parking for pick up. All in all very good.

We hit here during happy hour! A little noisy but that's expected! We ordered some boneless wings with hot honey on the side and Pj's Firehouse Chili with(Custom Blended herbs & spices with fresh chorizo & ground beef, slow cooked with red beans, onions & garlic in a fiery tomato broth topped with/ shredded cheddar jack) the chili was meaty and had a great taste! Not sure if The Hot n Honey sauce from the wings killed the heat of the chili but I enjoyed both! I am impressed with the flavor of the Copper Lager it's spot on not hoppy or overly barley! Our server Gisel was very professional, friendly & hospitable had a great sense of how we liked our hot! PJ Williams is a sports bar with a lot of TV's but is also family friendly with their menu.

Visiting my son in Doylestown for a weekend of hiking, gym, football, and pubs. We were watching the early game and had a need to get our assess off the couch. Went to YELP for a nearby spot. PJW was local and looked like they had a lot of big screens, which turned out to be true. Wall to wall big screens, no escaping the games here at all. Kicked the Blantons Single Barrel for a decent price for a decent pour. Was able to take the empty bottle ans horsey home for my next infinity bottle. Thx to Dave the bar manager. Son had two fresh draft Troegs IPAs which he really liked. Loaded tater tots were hot and crispy. Good snack. Great spot for sports, drinks, and bar food.

Do they put MSG in the food?

No. But some common seasoning salts contain MSG so you really have no way to prevent it unless you ask for an entree without sauce. The other problem is unless you talk with kitchen personnel the servers and bartenders will probably not be able to…

Nestled in super-cute downtown Doylestown, Finney's is the epitome of the unassuming, good old…read morefashioned hometown bar. You should know up front that this place is a smoking bar, so be prepared. I'm not a smoker, but I did not find this to be overwhelming or intolerable. However, I can see how a busier night would lend itself to be a smokier joint as the place is not that big. This is the best place for Thursday night football - as this is why I wandered in here on a Thursday night. It was much quieter than I anticipated being an Eagles game, but maybe once pre-season is over, traffic picks up. There was plenty of bar seating and more than enough room to stretch out. I call this place unassuming, because you'd never guess that this place offers an amazing array of beers and the absolute BEST chicken wings I've ever eaten in my LIFE. This is no joke. I'm not even a fan of chicken wings, or really anything with bones in it, but the sauce that is slathered on these suckers is NO JOKE. It's freakin' delicious and there are so many different options. They're huge, juicy, meaty, and just so so so tasty. I had the Garlic Hot and some Molasses Bourbon Spicy situation. Both so good. Like, I'm going to be talking about these wings for a long time. To top it off, the beer selection is unreal. If you're lucky enough to meet Rich, the bar manager, he'll hook you up with what's good. If you're into trying new beers, this is a solid place to make that happen. Surrounding street parking is aplenty. I'll definitely be back! I can't wait until my parents come visit, they will die over these wings!

Omg. Went into there today. Place allowed smoking. The clientele could not start a sentence…read morewithout say F^^k. It was terrible. Don't recommend anyone going
