Gets blasted in public letter.
He's right on most points.
There's several BWs in this area, and my lunch group frequented one for lunch often in the past. It used to be packed for lunch all the time, and cheaper than the Jed's down the road.
Now it's a different story. The place is a ghost town during lunch. Food quality has dropped, and the portions have done the same.
They used to have great lunch prices and now not only are the prices higher, but the quantites are suspect. Actual numbers have been replaced by words. So instead of ordering 8 or 12 wings, you order small or snack. That doesn't equate to the same numbers... In other words, they can change the number you get anytime they want without letting customers know they're changing it.

Re: Buffalo Wild Wings
Not to mention the beer prices are waaaaaay to high.. I actually can't remember the last time I went to a BW3, used to be one of the best sports bars around.

Re: Buffalo Wild Wings
Plus, how can they get away with calling the different shaped pieces "two wings" when they are, in fact, the two parts of a single wing? That's bullshit.
But I've never been a big fan of BWW. When the one opened near me we went there a few times.... I remember ordering a pulled pork sandwich and the meat barely covered the bottom of the bun. And I recently saw how they changed to the snack/small/whatever portions of wings.... it hadn't occurred to me that was how they'd change portions on the fly. I bet every server gets asked every time "How many wings are in the medium order?"

Re: Buffalo Wild Wings
I went to one for the first time in forever a few months ago. It just wasn't good. The wings were small and ridiculously expensive for what they were. The rest of the food was just meh at best.

Re: Buffalo Wild Wings
One day in the Upper Peninsula it was the only option for lunch. We went in at 11:30, on a work day..... we were literally the only people in there. I want to say it was one of the exits near Sault Ste Marie.

And nice, be sure to bring that up to my wife next time we get together.

I could accept a mistake with an "Oops, sorry about that," but the lie would piss me off and then I'd put it on twitter, too.

I didn't realize they had been purchased by PE.

I went to one 10 years ago, and it sucked BALLS.
Looks like they were bought in 2017. So yeah, it already sucked.

I was never a huge fan of their food. They won't be a big loss. To be honest, I cannot think of a national chain whose wings are worth saving. Hooters had the best spicy garlic sauce, but they got rid of it when they recently simplified their menu.
Locally, Mr. Beefy's was the shit for wings and such, but the owner snorted away its success. Seriously, I've yet to see its equal. A chain called Fricker's remains the king of the area, but it's honestly shit.

There's a place where I grew up that's still awesome. But that's 2 hours away. Nowhere remarkable here either. I'm more into the Korean BBQ wings these days. A bit heavy, but so tasty.
