  A Bdubs, is a Bdubs, is a Bdubs.  You always know what you're getting - TV's, sports, beer, and wings - and it's always pretty good.  
  
  This one, though, used to be different.  Back in the day (ha) when I was a student at CMU, I adored this location because it was smaller and just had a more down-home, neighborhood bar feel than the big sprawling, commercialized-feeling Bdubs of back home.  My friends used to gather here frequently for Wednesday night karaoke (I know, what BWW does karaoke?!  this one used to), and electronic trivia any night of the week.  The seating was comprised mostly of high tops, and long shared tables, giving the place a feel that distinctly said more "bar" than "restaurant."
  
  Recently on a visit back to campus, I stopped in for old time's sake, and found it to be just not the same.  It's still good, but it's lost a lot of what set it apart from the rest of the Bdubs pack.  Walking in, a hostess will greet and seat you.  There's still a section of high tops, but a lot of it has been replaced by lower tables and brighter lighting, which gives it more of the casual restaurant feel.  While trivia is still available, the karaoke night is gone.  
  
  It was still a good meal and a good time.  But I'll always think back to the good old days....

  This particular B-Dubs is hit or miss.  You get them on a good day and everything tastes fresh and delicious, the way the East Lansing location always is.  Get them on a bad day and you get a lettuce sandwich with a few pieces of chicken and a dribble of sauce.  I got take out to watch a football game at home with some friends and only one of the 5 orders of wings i ordered was done right. I would avoid this spot while students are in town and on any game day.  big beers = better time :)

  I highly recommend going here when school is out. It is much quieter, less smokey and the food is better. The wings were nicely sauced as was the wrap that I had. The chips and salsa that came with my wrap were better than the last time too.

  Good stuff.  Have been here even though it's a chain.  Nice because they have $2 big beers during Red Wings games.  Everything else good, beer cold and perfect.  No argument.
