Puck’N Wings

This place has gone downhill for the last 2 yrs. I used to come here all the time for their curly fries, fried calamari and variety of wings.
Last Monday I ordered butter chicken wings with curly fries. The order showed up (later than usual) with regular fries and the worst concept of a butter chicken I have ever eaten. It was basically tomato paste from the can heated with some curry powder. Not cooked but heated. I could taste the rawness of both ingredients it was awful. Plus when asked about the curly fries they informed they ran out!!! My only consolation was that the wings are half price on Mondays, if I had to pay full price for the crap I got I would be super mad.

Ordered ribs. Parts of it cold upon arrival. Not enough BBQ sauce.
Ordered sweet potato fries as a side. Soggy.
Ordered coleslaw on the side. Did not resemble coleslaw.
Decent service; will not revisit.

Overpriced bland food. Average prices for watered down beer. Slow inattentive waitresses. Poorly washed glasses and cutlery. The yonge and finch dive bar in all it’s miserable glory.

This place surprises me on how long they have been open for. The service is horrible due to the fact that they are understaffed and the food really is not that good. There are plenty of other wing joints around the nieghbourhood that offer much better wings and service.
They have tv’s here but some of them are awkwardly placed. The main tv’s are all located behind the bar. The food is subpar at best so come here with lowered expectations.
The service… well that is a different story all together. I am not sure if the servers are inexperienced, overwhelmed, or maybe just plain lazy. It takes forever to get a drink and they cannot handle big tables at all. They seem to forget a lot of items and for whatever reason seem less enthusiastic to be there.
Anyways…come here for the beers but make sure you order 2 at a time so you do not have to wait for a server.

Something is usually dirty, double check your fork. foods decent, solid wings, not much else. Staff can be a hit and miss. I’ve had a near perfect waitress and one that brought us our drinks 10 minutes after our food came. It’s a big place and has a good vibe for sports, They also do a BS cover charge some nights, not only do they not tell you upfront, but they even charge tax on it.

I decided to go here with a friend last minute on a friday night. I was expecting this place to be happening since it was 12:30am but it was far from that. When we walked in we noticed maybe 2 – 3 people sitting around the bar and no one in the dining room. We decided to sit in a booth in the dining room.
After looking through the menu for several moments I decided to order the chicken wrap while my friend ordered the BLT wrap. We also decided to order a bottle of wine to go with the meal. The first wine we chose the waitress had to inform us they didn’t have it. I think she should have told us that as she handed us the drink menu. We then had to go with our second choice which wasn’t bad.
When the waitress brought over the wine she began trying to open it. It looked like she had no idea what she was doing. The truth is she didn’t she flat out admitted it that’s she didn’t know how open it and she was struggling. My friend took the embarrassment from her and helped her by opening it. Very surprised!
When our food arrived I began to eat. I took a few bites and noticed I had no chicken in my wrap when I figured out that I was given the BLT and my friend was given the Chicken I wasn’t upset but thought to myself what if I was a client who didn’t eat pork that would have been a horrible experience!
I do not think I will be returning anytime soon which is a huge shame as it is less than a 5 minute walk from my place.

its the average bar, their burgers are average, almost kind of bland in my opinion, the service is kind of crappy, one time i actually sat down and did not get served for maybe 15 minutes so i got up and left, i could not lcoate the waitress
the décor needs updating, alot of the tables and seating looks brutally scratched

Primarily known for their wings, obviously. Puck’N Wings is located right off Yonge and Finch which makes it a prime spot for those looking to grab drinks after work. The place itself is rather large and in spite of this, it never seems to be packed. There is a fairly wide patio in the front where you could watch all the weird people of Yonge Finch go about their day while munching on your wings and drinking your beer.
I usually come on Mondays when they have Half Off Wings (w drink purchase). The wings here are pretty stellar as they are some giant jumbo wings that are battered, fried, and tossed in a sauce of your choice. You could also get them naked without breading if your heart so desires, but with their wide array of sauces, that would be foolish.
I’ve had the Dragon wings which are their sweet and spicy sauce, and their buffalo wings as well. While the wings are giant and plump, I find the breading and sauces too much. Especially buffalo sauce as the wings just swim in a pool of it. The Dragon is better because it’s a sticky sauce that doesn’t have any pool of sauce waiting below. My friend had the 2 hottest wing flavors possible and though her spice tolerance is impressive, she actually teared up a bit.
Haven’t had anything else but their wings and fries, but I can’t complain. I really enjoyed the wings and the place has enough TVs to satisfy any sports lovers out there. Service is hit or miss, but some of the servers are quite a treat for the eyes. Definitely make your way over here for wings on Monday night and don’t feel shy to bring a party.

I think I ordered the wrong things on the menu. I could not wait to leave this place and could not bare to finish the food.
Chilli $ 6.99 — comes with unsalted nacho’s and sour cream. The chilli was so bland and had no flavor at all. The beans in the chilli were not cooked long enough. I really couldn’t finish the chilli it was so bad. I would rather have chilli at Wendy’s or Tim Horton’s.
1 lb of butter chicken wings $ 11.99 — I though I would try out a new flavor of wings and red a few reviews mentioning the butter chicken. I regret ordering this flavor. It did taste like butter chicken flavor but it just didn’t taste right to me and once again I had a hard time finishing the wings. By the time I was done it looked like rats had chewed up the wings.
1lb of dry rub Cajun wings $ 11.99 — This was actually pretty decent but after eater the chilli and the butter chicken wings I had already lost my appetite.
Service was quick and friendly
I don’t think I will ever come back

I’ve previously written a review on All Star, and stated that it is my absolute fave place for wings. Now this place comes to a very close second.
Please note that Puck n Wings have many location however this review is only reflecting food and service quality at this specific location. I’m in general not a fan of other Puck n Wing restaurants. So if All Star is packed, we’d drive all the way to this location instead of going to a location close to us.
I recon this location might need some fixer upper for it’s décor. Everything seems pretty old and grimy. And for some odd reason, it’s always pretty dark and gloomy inside. For all thing considered, it really stand a chance against other well packaged restaurants close by.
Once you give it a chance, the wings will impress you and make you want to come back. Their wings are a good size, so you get your money worth. Flavour is addictive. Instead of an overwhelming selection, you choose from a smaller selection of pretty damn good flavours.
It’s pretty specious. good for a backup when everywhere else is totally packed — hidden treasure!

This is a good wings place. Has a great vibe, good food, friendly staff & Is clean.
If you live in the neighborhood & want a place to chill & watch a game or something– I definitely recommend this place.

Puck N Wings has a great vibe; the staff are so friendly and close that they make friends very easily with customers. There are alot of beer regulars as well as regulars who come because of the wings and the friendly staff. There are over a dozen TVs surrounding the entire bar so you can enjoy hockey, soccer, UFC, etc. There is a full bar so any mixed drink/​cocktail can be enjoyed.
If you are a salad person like myself, they give you the option to choose your own toppings through a «build your own salad».
Its a typical bar with typical bar food, with a very cool hockey layout. Its definitely a must see since it is unique in that it is hockey based; it has floors like an ice rink and hockey boards, and surrounded by lots of hockey pictures and facts and the coat racks are hockey sticks attached to the booths.
A+.

Hands down, this place has the best wings in Toronto!
Of the 50-​flavors to choose from, my all time favorites are:
1. Butter Chicken
2. Creamy Parm
3. Maple Garlic
Each flavor is unique and the chicken wings they use could possibly be on steroids, but seriously so juicy and delicious. The size of each wing is also larger than average. Irregardless of the zesty flavors offered, their juicy chicken wings are the biggest selling point why people would come back. The sweet potato fries are also amazing!
If you’re feeling for something healthier, they have a build-​your-​own-​salad menu that’s pretty awesome for women on strict diets coming here to watch a ball game or UFC with their significant other.
Only reason why they don’t have a five-​star is due to their lack of service. On numerous visits, our waitress would take our order and disappear till the food is ready, as if they were the ones cooking. You may also feel neglected standing by the door because they take some time to seat you. Their problem can be easily solved by hiring more staff.
They are also easily accessible — just a few steps from Finch Subway Station! There’s also a nice patio during the summer, and parking in the back!
Two-​Thumbs Up! I will be back!

Warning: prepare to be surrounded by a sea of children who just turned 19 and all seem to go here as their first bar. And underage kids with their first fake ID.
Slow service and bland tasting food. Beer is ok. TV’s at the tables are mostly broken or have distorted colours (unless you get a seat at the bar which have the new ones). Very pricey for what you get if you plan on eating there (basically anything other than appetizers to share).
I sometimes end up here if every other bar is full, but i try to avoid it. If you just want a beer then it’s not bad, but don’t expect much from the wings.

Dropped by on a Sunday with about 9 people. One of my friends wanted fish and chips and there wasn’t any on the menu… but they had edamame beans for appetizer?!?
7 of us all ordered wings. $ 11.99/lb and there were only 7 in a lb. Way overpriced if you ask me. It doesn’t even come with fries. One of my friends ordered a wrap with sweet potato fries and when he asked if the fries came with a dip, he was informed that the dip only comes with the fries when you order the fries ala carte, not as a side order. WTH?
We ordered our drinks and food, drinks came relatively fast. but the food took FOREVER. Got there just before 7pm and we didn’t get our food till almost 8! and what’s worse, not all the food came out at once. The server did not come by once to tell us why we were waiting or ask if we were doing okay. When we asked where our food was, she told us there were only two cooks working and they were overwhelmed. Considering there were only about 8 items on this menu, I was shocked.
We finally finished out meal and asked for our bill. Ten minutes passed and still no bill. We asked again. Waited another give minutes. Still no bill. Asked a third time, finally! Our bill comes. We spent over two hours in this place that was not even half full.
Take your money somewhere else, this place is overpriced and the service is really crummy!

I stopped by Puck’N Wings on the way home from work for some chow and beer while watching the hockey game… the bar itself is nice and long but the tables and booths looked a bit shabby.
The food was quite good although the service was on the slow side and the draft beer tasted fresh and was ice cold. The TVs set up at the bar make for good sports viewing and the crowd has a local feel (no hypsters, wannabees or kids).
Overall, this is a solid bar for bar food and drinks… while watching hockey.
Puck’N Wings: the name says it all.

How have I never reviewed this place before?
Its got a great location, right at the corner of Yonge and Finch.
Cheap drinks too. They’re definitely not that bad.
I’ve come here so many times it’s hard to count.
Highlights:
1. Sketchy Patrons who are fun to talk to when drunk. Just don’t invite people to sit at your booth.
2. The food here is pretty standard fare.
3. Except for the build your own salad, which is fucking phenomenal. LOVE IT. There’s a little sheet at your table, and you just check off in different compartments what you’d like in your salad. Theres the greens, the colour, the crunch, the veggies, the protien, the dressing. So awesome.
4. The waitresses are pretty nice.
5. THE BOOTHS ARE SO SPACIOUS. I have never had so much room in a booth before. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++

I have no issues with this location or with the anything at this bar in general. It’s steps away from my house, the wings are actually some of the best I have ever tried because they are sewww meaty! The salads here are great — you get to select a whole bunch of ingredients you want in it and they custom make it for ya ;)
The servers have always been nice to me and they have some great specials, during the hockey season especially (but that’s gone out the drain this year no?). Ask they server what’s on special for the day and maybe you can get yourself an extra lb of wings for the same price.
BLACK AND TAN RINGS hooolllllaaaaaa!!! So nommy. They’re kind of expensive, but the service is quire large and it comes with a really good chipotle sauce (it’s a little more on the sweet side though).
SWEET POTATO FRIES hoooolllllaaaa x2!!! They’re crunchy, the portion is big and they’re the ruffle-​cut ones — the sauce really sticks in those ruffles ;)
Beer is normal price, I don’t really remember how much a pitcher was but ballpark 15 – 17 bucks for a pitcher of Canadian.
This isn’t this kind of bar people would pull a mission to go to… it’s just a spur of the moment pub if you’re meeting someone at Finch or just want a late night drink (I go here alone. all the time. SO WHAT!!!)

Came here yesterday night and I am giving it an extra star as I found out most, if not all establishments do charge a cover for UFC events. And, it appears that this location might charge the least cover which is okay I guess.
Wings are actually very good here and that is why we came here with a group of friends yesterday. It was extremely quiet for a Saturday night (no event) which makes it a great hang out place for a group if you just want to chill.

I had to meet someone at Finch station and they were running extremely late so I popped in here to have dinner.
Though the Leaf’s game was on and it was Saturday, it wasn’t all that busy. The waitress was prompt and brought me a menu and asked if I had ever been here before, which I had not. She quickly went over the menu then took off to grab my pint.
When she came back I was ready. I went with a pound of the chipotle wings and a bowl of soup. She brought out the soup first which was nothing special. It was chicken noodle from a can. It hit the spot to help me deal with my cold but I wouldn’t order it on a regular visit.
The wings came out piping hot. They were nice an crispy and drenched in sauce. It wasn’t quite the flavour I was expecting from a chipotle sauce but it was still tasty.
I had a few more pints while watching the rest of the game and the first period of the next. All-​in it was $ 45 before tip. Pretty reasonable for the quality, portion size, and good customer service.\
