  Wow. Swallows is a great sports bar  environment. By far the best wings in Syracuse, especially on week nights. The bar is clean and the service is excellent. They really are the best in the business when it comes to making you feel welcome in a friendly neighborhood environment. Whether your coming for the famous wings or to watch a game, this sports bar is a must visit.

  As a native to Syracuse I LOVE this bar. It definitely draws a suburb neighborhood crowd most who used to live in the city back in the day. Best wings I've ever had. And a friendly bartender who will remember your name as soon as you walk in the door. If your looking for some cheap beer, sports, good food and friendly locals Swallows is the place for you.
  p.s. if you want to look like a regular the first time, be sure to enter through the back door and walk through the kitchen into the bar, trust me :)

  This place is the best!! Great neighborhood bar! The wings are the best I have ever had...anywhere!  The atmosphere is fantastic and the bartender (Mike or "Z") is the man who will remember your name forever.  Darts, TV's, Beers, Popcorn and friends.  See you there tomorrow!
  
  BTW: 25 cent wing night on mondays!
  
  UPDATE: Still giving it 5 Stars....HOWEVER!!! Beware!! On saturday nights they have a different cook.  She is a very large women and is HORRIBLE at cooking their signature wings.  She overcooks them, is very slow, and does not add the correct amount of sauce.  She also screws up my order about 50 percent of the time.  In addition to her poor workmanship, she is also very rude! Last saturday I ordered a dozen wings at a very slow time of the evening.  She responded, half kidding- by saying "No."  I laughed and assumed she was kidding.  But she wasn't! I waited 45 minutes and she never brought them out.! Then later that evening I returned after the hockey game and she got mad at me-THE CUSTOMER- for leaving earlier and not staying for my order.  This employee needs to be replaced.  Again, don't order wings on saturdays.
  
  UPDATE: The women was fired!! Horray! All is well now.

  I visited this bar for the first time last summer because they sponsored our Bocce league. As our sponsor, the bar was extremely generous. They brought out huge trays of different kinds of pizza and wings. The bartender was very good too. Type of place where they remember your drink. For being in a shotty part of town, the cliental was great. Now I am hooked on their food. I have had wings everywhere in town (Blarney, QuKer Stake, most bars down town, etc) and this place is BEST. Check it out for yourselves!

  I love this place. It has great clientele and the BEST wings in Syracuse in my opinion. Big Mike (bartender) is sarcastic and crude - if that's what you are into. Otherwise he is just a great bartender, always able to anticipate when you need a drink.
  Not in a great neighborhood, but you forget that as soon as you are inside this gem of a bar.
