The Dugout Sports Bar & Pizzeria is a great place to grab some wings. I went here a few times during happy hour with some coworkers to relax a bit after a stressful day at work. Â They have a really good deal on a dozen wings. These are some of the best wings that I have ever had. My favorite wings are the garlic parmesan. They also have some spicy wings, but they aren't spicy enough for me. I like them really spicy.
Review Source:Seriously the best wings ever. You seriously can't beat wing night here. However if you come on wing night, good luck getting a table or parking for that matter. Also you know these wings are good when Bing students drive alllllllllll the way out here for wings. This is definitely your divey and delicious upstate wing place.
Review Source:Those of us that come from/reside in the town, the enigma that is Apalachin, NY know a few things about the world that outsiders don't. Â
1. Â You don't need a police force to have a safe town (cuz we ain't got one and everybody's alright)
2. Â Chewing tobacco is acceptable--as long as you have a frayed camo hat, a Carhart jacket, say things like "I bagged a 12 pointer" and take your filthy habit to the basement of the Dugout Sports Bar
3. Â You don't have to be rich to enjoy life's greatest treasures (namely, the beach--tiki bar HELLO!, cheap wings--every Tuesday, Quickdraw.
4. Â A dozen wings means 12, NOT 10. Â Whoever came up with shorting the customers 2 wings and calling it a dozen is on par with some of the most hated sadistic tyrants in history
5. Â If you decide to eat wings on Tuesday at the Dugout, plan on running into everybody you know, used to know, would rather not remember knowing, are afraid somebody else will see that you know, or are just generally put off by. Â They will awkwardly approach you, call you by your last name and say something like "remember when you got hit in the nuts with that lacrosse ball in 7th grade". Â
That is Apalachin. Â That is the dugout. Â Cheap wings, hicks, trivia dorks, alcoholics, kitsch loving tiki bar seekers.
Long live Applecrackin.
Wing night = Tuesday night. Â
I crave these wings. Â Dozen wings are $4.50 or something outrageous like that. Â Garlic Parmesan is my favorite but the classic wings are good but not that spicy (even the atomic). Â Service is friendly and prompt but they do get pretty busy. Â Their other food is also pretty good especially their pizza. Â Drafts are cheap and they can accomodate a big crew but wing night can get pretty busy so I'd go either early (5ish) or late (after 9pm) although the wait has never been more than 20mins. Â
There is a kitschy little tiki bar out back now too that got pretty rowdy for a random Wednesday night. Â I was impressed.
1st. HORRRIBLE HORRIBLE Service when it comes to food just soo SLOW!
2nd. The food doesn't taste horrible the timing is just bad... just wait and see.
3rd. Its worth going in if your not in a rush, nice atmosphere for a sports bar in a small town.
4th. hardly ever parking.
and oh yea they have a "beach bar/tikki bar" you'll just have to go and see it for yourself.
It's all in the wings.
I had been invited to this bar with my fiancee' by his coworkers for trivia night. Don't be surprised if this bar is busy every night of the week - trivia or no trivia.
Positives- Â wings, wings, wings!! Our large group ordered a 1/2 sheet of pizza which was okay, typical bar food, and 2 dozen of 2 different kinds of wings. The one was the orgasmically delicious parmesan garlic wings, dripping with sauce and melted fresh parmesan. My mouth is watering just thinking back. These wings along are enough for fond memories. The second wings were jack daniels bbq I think? or something similar. There are many choices of flavors so you might get lost choosing and have to come back to sample more.
Negatives - The service is crappy, on the two occasions we went for trivia night the place was packed with townies and BU students who were loud and standing right in the way of everything, and there were only 1-2 wait staff both times and I have a feeling the one waiter also was working in the kitchen and behind the bar. They need to get more staff! Â Our waiter would mess up our drink orders because he couldn't hear us over the trivia announcements and tvs, and seemed frazzled from all the orders of the room he was getting.
The other time I went to this bar it was a quieter night, maybe a sunday early evening, and it wasn't nearly as crowded. I had a burger that was less than impressive but not too bad.
The gist:
+ wings, wings and more wings!
+ trivia night is very fun, but some groups are very hardcore and will beat you every week unless you know all the useless trivia facts.
+ atmosphere is calmer since it's out of the way of binghamton
+ decent prices
+ choices - typical bar menu plus interesting burger choices and many delightful wing sauce varieties
+ friendly staff, good DJ on trivia night
- poor service
- crowded late at night
- burgers and pizza aren't worth a longer drive

* get there early or you wont find a seat empty, and claim your chairs or else they might get grabbed by a nearby table, and come before you're starving or you'll end up eating your straw before you get served.
Tried this place after a recommendation from a friend. I was disappointed.
Service was REALLY bad, had a hard time finding our waitress after we ordered!
Burger was not served how I ordered it (phattened) and was over-cooked. My girlfriend's buffalo chicked spedie sub was OK.
If I do try this place again, I will have to order the pizza or wings.
A good sign: When people who live 4 hours a way come to visit this place annually if not twice a year to get the wings.
One word and one strength - wings. Â The wings here are by far the best wings I've ever had in my life. Â It's the perfect culmination of crunchiness, moistness, and sauciness. Â The flavor variety is enough to keep you content... hot garlic, honey mustard, the typical hot sauce variety...
The wings are enough to carry the dive bar type atmosphere and poor menu and selection of beers. Â It's enough to carry the fact that this place is 20 minutes from campus (when we used to go to school) and now 240 miles away from me now that I live in NYC.
BU students go here every Tuesday for 15 cent wings unless the economy changed that.
Great Pizza and Wings. rarely crowded. townie like bar, but friendly to students too - there aren't many there. You get there by going on Vestal Hwy, towards vestal. past everything. once you think you are too far, go about 5 more miles and its on the left.
My friend had a pizza ordering rule. You buy n - 2 pizzas. n = # of people at your table. Â It worked out well. The pizza wasn't too filling, and for some reason it's just fun to eat there.
Half of the place is a bar, half is a restaurant. Now that I think about it, the restaurant part is just like the kids table. There you're allowed to eat all  you want and fool around with your friends, while the older people drink in the dark on the other side.
So go and have fun!
