Duff’s Famous Wings

Tourist trap. You’re paying for the Duff’s name, but you’re getting an inferior wing. The kitchen here is poised to flip tables as the outlet mall shoppers file in. The result is some under-​cooked, over-​priced wings. The appeal is name recognition and a surprisingly decent bar. Fried pickles and a beer are a lifeline.
If you’re in the area and looking for a good chicken wing, then go to Judi’s which is literally a half mile down the road.

Been there twice, both times precooked wings. The second time I specifically asked the bartender to ask the cook them to make the wings fresh. They came out in 5 minutes I had one and left the rest they still charged me. You’re better off at a local bar the wings are much better. Famous please!

Delicious fresh wings and Friendly service. Also their french fries are better than mcdonalds. Will definitely be back next time we are back in town. Next time we will try their duff beer with Duff man! =P

Best wings in Niagara Falls! The flavor of the sauce is consistent and the wings are always cooked just right. We have been known to pick up pizza from Buzzy’s, stop at Duff’s for wings, and bring everything home.

Very good wings! We were visiting from out of town and decided on this place after reading reviews.
We got the 20 wing/​large fry/​small soda deal and could not finish we were so full (2 people) The wings were crispy and not crazy saucy. We got the medium-​low which was perfect as we didn’t want them too hot since we weren’t at home and didn’t want to be uncomfortable later. The medium-​low still had a nice zing to them. The fries are similar to McDonalds in that shoestring style and were also very good. The food came quickly and the server was a sweetheart.

The service here is on point. the ladies attend to you quickly and there all smiling, makes u feel @ home. And the food is GREAT wings fries and wraps are excellent…

Delicious wings and fairly priced for what you get, one pf my favorite places for wings

This is one of the originals in Buffalos wings scene, I was surprised by the variety of wings and sauces they have. When I used to eat meat Duffs was one of the places I would go regularly, but now that I’ve become a vegetarian, it is much harder to find something off the menu.
Overall there’s a reason why there are four locations in Buffalo and I would recommend any wing love her to come check out their options. Each year I’ve noticed that they place first or second at Buffaloes National wing eating contest for tastiest wings or most creative taste.

Traveled here for the weekend for a hockey tournament, Saturday night couldn’t get in because they were so busy, but Sunday night was empty so we tried the place. Don’t judge the place by looks outside, we nearly passed on it, judging it by the fact it looks like a strip mall odd ball bar. After a quick check on Unilocal we decided to give it a try and we found this place a really nice wing joint. Good food, waitress was great! Food was cooked perfect, we had a party of 5 and nobody had any complaints. They have daily specials. Good draft beer selection. Lots of tv’s to catch a game on. High top tables, chair tables and booths allow plenty of seating options. It’s a great local joint for good grub!

We wanted to try both Anchor Bar and Duff wings when we were in Niagara Falls/​Buffalo, but we didn’t get a chance to try both. We tried Duff and thought it was solid good. We ordered the hot and suicidal and both wings were very good. There is an upcharge of $ 1.25 for the suicidal sauce, no refund. We thought it was spicy, but really not that bad. At least I was able to eat a couple of it to get a good kick.
It’s worth it to stop by if you like buffalo wings!

What a visit. It started out terrible with dirty plates and poor service. She brought our fries out first. However she did not bring the clean plates. As we waited for plates, the fries sat there getting colder by the minute. Meanwhile our waitress was waiting on other tables and STILL no plates. We can only hope the wings are better.
Wings just arrived but still no plates. Fortunately the fries are cold now so the plates are not quite as important.
Wings were a mixed bag. They were half very good and half greasy and dried. Next time we will go to the Delaware location.

I love wings but I don’t get the fuss about Duff’s. If you like wings soaked in Frank’s Red Hot then maybe this is your thing. I expect more from a wing sauce. A good wing sauce should have butter, hot sauce, and not be too thick. This is just plain hot sauce without any flavor — just hot. Maybe the wings were crispy but it’s hard to tell through that thick and overabundant sauce. Mediocre wings combined with a dirty and overcrowded atmosphere is just not for me. Sorry Duff’s, but my local pizzeria is much better.

I like the Duffs in Buffalo far better. The medium sauce at this location has a lot of salt flavor in it.
The wings were good though, meaty and flavorful as always. My wife also got a turkey blt wrap which was very good. Another friend who was with us got a southwestern chicken salad, a huge salad with plenty of meat in it, looked good to me and she said it was very good.
Fair prices and good service, I’ll just go back to the Buffalo one next time as I enjoyed the atmosphere and sauces better there.

A for the wings. They were very crispy (Yumm) and tasty, although drenched in sauce (which I used as a dip for my veggies and fries). The salad was uninspired. The fries were average. There were some local beer options which was nice.
I took off stars because the restaurant was not clean-​dirty doors on bathroom, sticky menus, unpleasant smell in bathrooms. A deep clean would be worth every penny and really in order.
Our server was pleasant.

I have mixed feelings about this place, on the one hand the wings were great. On the other the place was dirty. Table was sticky, clearly the bowl to toss in the bones had not been washed and there was absolutely no silverware. Granted wings are finger food, but when they are scorching hot, you could use a fork.
Although I enjoyed the wings, I’m happy I survived the meal without getting food poisoning.

Good wings, I guess that’s all I care.
The char-​BQ flavor is very good and special. The local Duff’s brew beer is awesome.

We wanted to get some wings while we were in Buffalo. Stopped here for convenience because it was on our way to cross the border. We seated ourselves with menus at the table. The Tuesday lunch special was 10 wings for $ 7.95. We ordered 20 medium hot and 10 medium.
The wings were definitely overcooked. To me, a proper wing should have nice crispy skin with tender meat. The meat should obviously not be under cooked, but should have clear juices running through. This isn’t what we got from Duff’s. The skin was overcooked and the connective tissue and cartilage was dry and tough. On the drums, the meat was shriveled to one side. Maybe I got a bad batch or the cook was having a bad day, but looking at other tables’ wings and at some of the pictures on Unilocal,this looks like a consistent practice.
I actually really liked the sauce, tangy with a kick. They give you a bucket to dump the bones and wipes when you’re finished. Service was below average with a plenty of wait time. And of course our server tried to take our order without writing anything down and of course she had to return later to confirm and still forgot sides of ranch and mayo.

Yes, I know this is a wings place but I ordered the cheeseburger with a side of fries. I couldn’t go to Homers restaurant without ordering a Duff Brew so I did that as well. The Burger was awesome and well prepared. I typically do not finish my food because I am a slow eater but the burger was too good to become I leftover so we became one. The house beer was nothing fancy but it worked with the burger and fries. Apparently they have some pretty crazy hot wings but I can barely do regular pepper so that was not an option. Overall it was a nice establishment with courteous service. They get four stars because I was very pleased with my meal and the service was just right. I would give them five stars but I did not try the wings. Aside from that they were good enough for a visitor from across the states to hear about them and check them out. Give them a try.

First time trying duffs wings, it’s a seat yourself place that’s pretty small and honestly a little run down if you ask me… had lunch specials starting at $ 6.99 which was pretty cheap, got 5 wings with fries and celery… overall the wings were average, nothing too special and they do not have a lot of variety in sauces
They have cheap beer here like 5 beers for $ 12…good for a place to hangout with the boys and watch the game
