Stopped in here for a quick dinner. It is exactly what you would expect from a wing place. The options are many from dry and wet spices for your wings. The wings are plump and juicy, the fried pickles were crispy and tasty, the mushroom appetizer was good. We were there around 5 so pretty early for dinner and the place was mostly empty. I split a salad and a small wing order with someone and it was a ton of food. The salad was filled with fresh ingredients. We had a gluten free requirement and they accommodated that well. Although they don't have a GF menu, they bring you the nutritional 3 ring binder info, which is kind of annoying. The waitress was very attentive supplying enough water, napkins, plates to share etc. There are plenty of TV's in every corner of the restaurant.
Review Source:I like how this place is open late compared to every other place in Maine. The wings are good but small and pricey. Berry lemonade is weird, get the mango lemonade. One thing that bothered me was that there is seating right next to the bathrooms. So I was angled where I could see men walking in and out of the bathroom. Yea, I'd change that..
Review Source:Although not a fan of chain type places - and less of sports bar establishments - we stopped in here with our 5 year old for lunch. Â The place is massive - I can't believe it's ever filled. Â Lots of TV's, and basically clean. Â We started off with the soft pretzels with honey mustard dipping sauce, mostly for our son. Â The pretzels were nice and soft, and it was a large appetizer - three decent sized pretzels. Â
I had the boneless tender salad, coated in their medium sauce. Â The chicken was crisp and pretty darn tasty, and the lettuce was ok, although it could have been crisper. Â The fat free ranch dressing was full of flavor, and went nicely with the chicken chunks. Â Overall, a decent boneless wing salad; not the best, but tasty and simple. Â
My wife had the boneless wings meal (8 pieces is the smallest order). Â These were like mcnugget size, with the sauce cooked in. Â I prefer them "wet," but my wife thought they were flavorful, and enjoyed the medium sauce as-is. Â Again, nothing to write home about, but a tasty, inexpensive lunch if you get that wing craving. Â A three star place.
My BF is from the South where Buffalo Wild Wings are everywhere so he was super excited when one opened up in South Portland. We went the week it opened, which happened to coincide with the Final Four, which made him even happier.
He warned me that it would be loud and packed with drunk basketball fans, so I did some mental preparations and in we went.... to find the place almost empty.
The BF was very disappointed. He said the atmosphere of BWW is what makes it so much fun and this one lacks all the "fun" elements. It was "way too bright and much too large and open."
Atmosphere aside, the food was average. I was really excited to try their wings but was not impressed. They were tiny and pretty overpriced.
I'll stick to getting my wings fix from Bingas!
I was excited to try this place particularly given my addition to buffalo wings. Â Unfortunately I was a bit disappointed. Â First all the seats in the place are hard wooden seats. Â Not comfortable and actually it was a relief to leave. Â Ordered a dozen wings with the medium sauce. Â Normally I get hot but I was thinking that given the motif that heat would be a bit higher than the run of the mill pub style buffalo wings. Â The wings were tasty but a bit bland. Â If I go back I will definitely get the hot ones if not the wild ones. The service was good enough very polite but a little slow in spite of the fax that the restaurant was nearly empty.
One more thing. Â I attempted to log in to their wireless using and I touch. Â To use it you have to register using an application that is impossible to use on the small screen even zooming in. Â Never got online.
Overall, a very bad experience here - one that will likely keep me from ever stepping foot in a BWW ever again. Â Start-to-finish, the experience was sub-par from the food to the service.
I know you can operate a successful chain (even one of sports bars/pub food) without resorting to pre-packaged, frozen menu items. Â However, this chain does not seem to take the culinary high-road, as nearly every item we sampled tasted like it came out of the freezer and went into the fryer. Â We got an order of 24 boneless wings, which came with up to four different sauces. Â The boneless wings were roughly the size of McDonalds McNuggets, but had a thick batter-layer which left very little meat inside. Â Out the four flavors we tried, only one pleased the group. Â The mango habanero lacked any depth or complexity, but instead went with the cheap-shot of a taste bud burn that left the mouth tingly and uncomfortable. Â The honey BBQ was sticky-sweet, the salt&vinegar (not a sauce but a seasoning) seemed interesting on paper but lacked any hint of vinegar in execution. Â The Parmesan garlic sauce was a crowd pleaser, but when applied to the aforementioned poorly-executed batter nuggets, did nothing more than make me mourn for what could have been here. Â
We also ordered a basket of fries ($5 or so) to share, and though they were supposed to have the same salt-and-vinegar flavoring as the wings we ordered, they, too, tasted only of salty fries. Â These were the highlight of the meal, as they were basically McDonalds-like fries with a bit of potato skin left on. Â However, if you're coming here for the fries, save $2.50 and hit the McD's drive through window for the same sort of French fries and the same serving-size. Â The $6.99 basket of onion rings proved to be the single biggest let-down of the evening. Â Buyer beware - for $7, you get roughly a dozen (I think i'm being generous) onion rings that, like the other items on this menu, seem to have been over-battered and frozen, only to be pulled from their chilly sleep and dipped into a vat of oil. Â The grease paired with the thick batter resulted in rings that had no onion taste whatsoever - had I not seen the translucent layer of onion inside the ring, I could have been convinced I was eating any number of deep-fried items.
The one upside to the food was that my side-salad (though only lettuce, tomato, and onion with some croutons), for $2.99, was a generous serving size and came with mixed greens rather than romaine or iceberg. Â
The service was nearly equally abysmal, as our server operated with a level of impatience that one would expect from a crowded, busy dining-room. Â The opposite was the case - on this Sunday evening at 9:00pm, the dining room was nearly empty, so the rush felt from the server was completely unwarranted. Â My boyfriend and I came in, sat down, and proceeded to order some beers. Â The server asked for our IDs, made some crack about not really looking at them anyway, but he just needed to ask as a formality, and then brought us our drinks. Â My boyfriend then went to the restroom, and the server took that opportunity to come over and ask me what we'd like to order. Â I informed him that because my boyfriend was in the restroom AND we were waiting for a third member of our party, we'd wait to order until everyone was present. Â Ignoring this, he came by 4 more times (at 5-minute intervals) to try to get a food order out of us before our third member showed up. Â Finally, we got frustrated and just ordered for everyone, despite asking him every single time he came by to please not come by again until our 3rd member had arrived. Â Because the dining room was empty, I did not understand the rush. Â
Subsequent to ordering, everything that the server dropped off at our table (plates, napkins, the check, the credit card receipt, etc) was tossed onto the table hastily and agressively rather than placed down gently. Â Credit cards were tossed flippantly on the table, plates clanged and shook as they were dropped loudly and clumsily around us. Â
Overall, the server's pushy, rushed attitude and penchant for rudely dropping items on our table, paired with the low-quality of the food served made for a very poor evening for my group. We will not be back.
