    Wings - Cajun Dry Rub & Mild. I'd already eaten 3 or 4 before I took the pic. Michelob Ultra draft, and an ice water.

    50¢ wings! EVERY. DAY! Generous size, well-cooked, and delicious. I love this place. It's located on the border of Kenmore and Tonawanda. You won't see commercials for Porter's. And if you go online and scour Reddit or Google for wings in the Buffalo, NY area, it will get absolutely buried (and go mostly unnoticed) by fans of other local wing joints. Of course, everyone's heard of the more touristy Anchor Bar and Duff's. WingNutz, a relative newcomer to the game of chicken wings in recent years, has gained popularity, and is vying to be a contender. If you were to ask me a year ago, I'd've said Bar-Bill or Adolf's Old First Ward were my favorite wings - if you didn't have to wait for seats. The thing that struck me the most, a few months ago, when I ventured in here, with a friend after work, was the atmosphere. Followed by the wings. And finally the wallet-friendly prices. The place is a very basic sports bar - nothing fancy, nor do its patrons or staff want it to be. But the bartenders, waitstaff, and cooks are outstanding! It's very family friendly, and you'll see groups of families, friends, coworkers, and groups gathering after Little League or adult softball games. At the bar, you'll see locals, regulars, and newcomers alike. It's also a Bills haven. Side note: one of the things I remember fondly growing up and coming of age in the '90's was the popularity of wings and draft beer and how affordable they were. They were a staple of college kids and the working man alike. Now, post-Pandemic, the, "New Normal," is every Tom, Dick, and Harry place wanting to act all Bougie and frou-frou and trying to sell you overpriced wings and $10 glasses of beer. And everyone just gasps about how great this is. I personally think this new normal sucks. If you go to all these other joints I mentioned, their wings are decent, but you're paying $1.70 to $2.00. FOR. A. SINGLE. CHICKEN. WING. That's $17-$20 for a SINGLE order of 10 wings. What once was an appetizer or snack comprised of jazzed up leftover chicken parts has become an entree - and that's WITHOUT any sides or a salad. At Porter's Place, it's always 50¢ a wing (mild, medium, hot), or 85¢ a wing for specialty wings (Cajun dry rub or Garlic Parmesan). Disclaimer: these are dine-in prices, and I believe you have to purchase a beer or a Pepsi product with them. They don't have, "to-go," boxes, but I suppose you can use the waxed cardboard and foil the wings are served in to bring a few leftovers home. However, you'd probably get banned if you were to smuggle several orders out. My Mich Ultra draft was $4. And Friday will get you a fish fry, fish sandwich, or an order of shrimp. Of course, there are standard appetizers, like mozz sticks, fries, mac and cheese sticks, etc. Those other establishments are all well and good, but I'm heading to Porter's Place for some Cajun Dry Rub wings. Deliciousness, and I'll still have some cash leftover in my wallet!

    Great customer service. Wings are amazing!! And definitely for the price. Can't beat 50¢ wings everyday!! Dine in only of course. But it's worth it!

    The 50 cent wings were so tasty; cooked the way I like them. The place itself it's really chill, laid back and the music was at a nice reasonable level so we could talk to eachother. The service was also nice, the waitress was attentive to all, it's nice spot !

    The wings are very good. Especially for 50 cents. The fries were also good. The lemonade tastes homemade. By the way my wings came out crispy the way I wanted them.

    $0.50 hot/med/mild , $0.75 any other sauce. No take-home. Totally worth it. Get a couple beers, play some darts. Enjoy some friggin cheap (and very good) wings. Service is great, lots of big TV's. Good sports bar.

    Good wings but slow service. Need to improve accuracy for takeout orders (35 minutes easily…read morebecomes 1 hour)

    TLDR: Duff's was the perfect Buffalo road trip stop with excellent wings, great beef on weck, fast…read moreservice, and plenty of space for a large group. We were caravaning with a group of eight on a road trip to Toronto and decided a stop for some authentic Buffalo wings was mandatory before crossing the border. Duff's ended up being the perfect choice, especially with multiple cars since they have their own parking lot and were conveniently located not too far off our route. Inside there was plenty of seating for both small and large groups. We were able to push several tables together in the main dining room so all eight of us could sit together. Service was excellent. Since we were still on a schedule to get to Toronto, we appreciated how quickly the servers got everyone's orders in, and the food came out wicked fast. We went for the full Buffalo experience with several orders of wings in different flavors and heat levels, a few beef on wecks, and some Duff's beer. The wings definitely lived up to the hype. They were large, well sauced, and my medium had just the right amount of heat. Everyone who went hotter was equally impressed with the flavor. The beef on weck was another hit, packed with tender roast beef and plenty of flavor. Overall, a great experience and an easy recommendation if you're looking for classic Buffalo wings and beef on weck.
