People will go elsewhere. And when a restaurant/bar is trying to gain a solid customer base, ultimately, good service and good food will keep people coming back. Beer is beer, no matter where you go. |

My local watering hole, the Beer Bistro in Chicago, has $.25 wings on Sunday. The wings get them in. I think it's the beer that keeps them in business.
I like that place. Don't live too far from it, either. |
The only thing that ticks me off is the BW3 near me refuses to play the sound (except during Lakers games or playoffs). And they refuse to put Closed Captioning on even 1 TV. :mad:
That said I will probably go for lunch today. |

I needed to get to my next $75 plateau for another 500 MP miles by June 30, so I was there Monday for the $5 pizza, Tuesday for the $2 burger and last night for the $5.99 soup and sliders special! :o I think I'll take the holiday off! :D
BTW, off the subject but on the topic of the thread--I once won the BWW challenge. My pic is on the wall at the one near Toyota Park :D |

How many? :)

I'm in the camp with those who said BWW isn't bad - especially for a family night out. Plenty of TVs for the youngsters to watch, and adequate food and drink. The quality of their wings is sufficient and the service (in my experience) has been fine. The overall value was decent.

"Isn't bad," "sufficient" quality and lots of TVs to entertain the kids! Yum! ;)

What do you want from a chain of wing restaurants? I could have said "better than Hooters", but that would have been really unfair to BWW. :D

The challenge is to eat 12 of their hottest wings (I think they're called Blazin') in fewer than six minutes. I did it in 3:02, and that was with some showboating before downing the final wing. :cool:

I think the quality of the specialty of the house should be better than "sufficient." But, I agree, the TVs are great. Something for everyone. :)
BWW are fine, but I have a hard time saying they are more than "sufficient" to satisfy a wing craving. |

I have high standards for wings. :D

Have you been to Q in Port Chester? They have the largest wings I've ever seen. 3 wings have enough meat on them to fill you up. Only offered on Thursday (all day). $1.25 per wing. Just say the word. I'm sure HPN-HRL would join us.
