Because wings are my Achilles heel, I rate them very critically and this has never been so true until I tried the wings at Buffalo Wild Wings in Blacksburg, VA. Â I've always enjoyed Buffalo Wild Wings, but for some reason, the B3dub in Blacksburg, VA misses the mark and isn't up to par as some of the others around the country. Â I've been to B3dubs in Tucson and Phoenix, AZ; Winchester and Harrisonburg, VA and the B3Dub in Blacksburg is the black sheep of the bunch.
Let's talk about my favorite flavor of wings B3dub has to offer, Asian Zing. Â I could take this sauce and throw it on anything. Â But, unfortunately, last time the dryness and size of the wings could not be fixed by the sauce. Â I hope this was a bad day for Blacksburg B3dub. Â Usually, B3Dub wings are emasculate! Â Not this time time though.
This experience, however, won't prevent me from trying them again. Â For now, I am scarred by this unfortunate experience and it may take a while to get back on the horse. Â I hope next time and am fairly confident that Buffalo Wild Wings in Blacksburg, VA will meet its potential!
I should have gotten to writing this review awhile ago but anyway, here it is. Friday is bar crawl night with my friends Danny and Ashley. We met up here because Danny was eating dinner with his other friends. Ashley and I joined after they ate. They had already had two beers and were ordering their third round. I ordered a Yuengling and Ashley a shot and miller light. We were all having a good time time until we went to order a second round. The waitress stated she wasn't comfortable serving us and our table was cut of. At 9:50pm on a friday night in Blacksburg we were cut off at a bar. We thought she was joking but no we were done. We asked why and she wouldn't tell, we had done nothing to warrant being cut off. We asked for the manager but once a server decides to cut you off no one can serve you. It was a horrible experience and tip reflected it.
Review Source:It's a college BW's, so it's going to be noisy and crowded most of the time. Even so, it took a good bit of time for my group to be seated, and we  were a party of three. The wings were okay enough, but in the case of my honey bbq wings, it looked like the sauce had been applied with a spritzer. Chances are, you know what you're going to get if you come here, but just know that this isn't the best BW's out there.
Review Source:This Bdubs brought me back to photo hunt and drunk college guys singing acapella at the bar. It's a fun environment on game nights and you might even see some bball players stop in for take out. Initially I was surprised that you have to show ID at the entrance, but what the heck everyone is there to drink, eat and be merry! Or drown in their sorrow after losing to JMU (Go Dukes)!
I was very happy when we finally sat down to eat at 9pm after waiting a while for a group of 6. We ordered 4 different styles of 6 bone-in wings each:a dry rub which I wasn't crazy about, the Hot Wings which were definitely spicy and making my eyes water, the Mango Habenero wings which were supposedly spicier on the scale but I thought was sweet, and the Spicy Garlic, which was an all around crowd pleaser. Onion rings were tasty but I was just too full by the time they came to the table. Best thing about being in this college town is that they have great beer specials ($2 until 9pm!), the waitress lets you know when the specials are about to end and they automatically give you separate checks because they are used to the kids using their dining cards.
This place is no different than any other wing joint but your service may vary drastically. Â Because they employ mostly college students working for beer money the wait staff will vary from extremely nice and helpful to useless and frustrating. Â I've gone many times and never gotten the same server, there is clearly a constant overturn. Â The food is consistent and is really only a good value on their wing nights.
Review Source:This is a college usual to get delivered on tuesdays with their wings discount.
Their hot and spicy garlic sauces are the best, the other ones aren't bad but it really depends on if you want your wings to taste like asian potstickers, or like bbq sauce, which I don't.
It's a large chain restaurant, 3/5 is about the best chains can get. There are much better places to get wings, but Blacksburg doesn't have very many options.
This place has NTN Trivia, which is awesome! The drink prices aren't great, but there are specials on Sam on saturdays and Leinekugel's on Tuesday. If you can stomach generic beer, there is usually a special. Wing night is Tuesday, so matching this with Leinekugel night makes for a great Tuesday. Oh, and the wings are good too, I like the spicy garlic.
Review Source:as a vegetarian, i actually remember nothing about the food at BW3s, but i used to come here fairly often to play the NTN/buzztime trivia games with my friends. Â you get little blue wireless handheld controllers and respond to questions that show up on TV screens across the restaurant. Â some of the games are themed (ie travel, sports, etc) and some are general knowledge jeopardy style games. Â the screens show top scorers across the network as well as in the bar, and since this location is so close to campus you get a fairly good number of people playing on any given evening. Â definitely a nice change from the usual bar scene.
Review Source:Known mostly as BW3 among the Hokies (don't ask me where the third 'w' came from), this is a popular haunt on Friday nights. I've had my best wings, consistently, at BW3. If you're up for some spice, try their Blazing Hot Wings -- as pure capsaicin as you can get. For a less gastro-intestinal-tract-burning experience, try the Spicy Garlic sauce. The full bar always seems full, and I loved their Mango Margarita. The one-liners on their dinnerware embody the general ambience ("Our political viewpoint? Left wing *and* right-wing")
