Woody's Jerkwater Pub & Grub

Decent beer selection, wings were a huge let down after all the hype.

Chris C. might have caught them on an off night, I have been many times and the service is usually pretty decent.  Maybe not super attentive, but I feel a lot of bars are like this, you kind of have to camp out at the bar and wave money, hoping to get served.  I'm pretty used to that and would have to say that Woody's is better than average.

But I don't go to Woody's just to drink, I go for the wings.  My cousin turned me on to them several years ago and they are so good it is RIDICULOUS.  Best hot wings on the planet, anywhere, including Buffalo.  I grew up in Syracuse, went to college in Albany, now live in Los Angeles, and have had wings every place in between.  For traditional hot wings, Woody's beats them all.  Every time I visit Syracuse I look forward to heading to Woody's with my cousin, chowing down on some wings and having a few beers.

The atmosphere is pretty chill, typical bar with TVs, though some nights it gets pretty crowded if there is a game on.  Prices are really reasonable; no matter how much I eat or drink I feel like my tab is always less than I expected.

If you are a wing fanatic like me, get to Woody's IMMEDIATELY!

If you like being served drinks at bars, I wouldn't recommend this place. I felt like I had walked into someone's house and asked to be waited on. The bartender was more interested in talking to other people and just hanging around.

On the plus side, they did have a multitude of TVs with games on, which was nice.

I wouldn't recommend it though.
