John HankusMarch 9, 2015Wings and Beef on Weck for the win. Fast service. Good waitstaff. Best place to eat in the airport. The hot sauce on the wings is not that hot though. Don't be scared.
Great wings and blue cheese! Best food in the airport - take some for your flight too!
Donna McNovember 13, 2012Tourist tip: There are other wings, but Anchor Bar created the original --- it's all about the awesome sauce!
Dale BurkettJuly 5, 2014Finally compared three of the wings joints in Buffalo..Duff's, La Nova and Anchor Bar..the ranking is in that order...Anchor's suicidal wings?...not very spicy at all unfortunately.
Mel RuppFebruary 9, 2015Good service. A taste of Buffalo before you even leave the airport! Great food!- Andrea PincoskiNovember 13, 2011Order the beef on wick(be sure to get it on the kimmelwick roll) with a double order of horesradish sauce! Seroiusly a western new york special!!!!
Marqus R.August 8, 2013It's all about Buffalo Chicken Wings using the original sauce as developed by the recipe's creator, Theressa Bellissimo.
Aaron HornOctober 26, 2013I walked in at 4:10pm and I was done eating my beef on wick by 4:29. Super fast service.
This might be obvious, but if you want to go to the Anchor Bar, go to the Anchor Bar. Downtown. Not at the airport. This one has an airport concession connection, and it just isn't the same.
Carla OliveiraNovember 24, 2013Angus beef Burger surprisingly good!! Super juicy and full of flavor!!
Steve PetrosinoMarch 11, 2014"About the best wings I've ever had" comment of a customer sitting next to me. To bad I'm on the vegetarian kick.
Caroline MillerAugust 17, 2012The Buffalo Combination is a great tour of the city, foodwise. Tasted great, pleasant service.
Dan UrshelSeptember 10, 2012This place has the best wings. Order them hot, and you've got a piece of Buffalo history.
Stephanie DeDeckerAugust 26, 2017Fast service and nice staff, but wings aren't the best. Would prefer Hooters any day
Mark HussonFebruary 25, 2011If you are a fan of spicy & hot, try the suicide wings. They are very hot, but not insanely-hot, so you should be good. Maybe do 5 hot and 5 suicide.- Hiram A RhoadsMay 15, 2012Go to Duff's on Dick Rd. near the airport, original on Sheridan or location in Orchard Park if you want to eat real wings.
Best last chance meal in the US. Grab some quick wings at the bar or get 'em to go!
Scott FriedmanApril 10, 2010Not a bad substitute for the original but prefer the original in d'town BUF. The combo plate comes with wings & the infamous "Beef on Weck" The kimmeweck bun was extremely fresh for an airport vendor.
David CookJune 15, 2012Buffalo chicken salad...not very saucy, but the Bleu Cheese dressing is delicious!
Gato BellaJune 10, 2014Don't think you're getting the real deal here. These are a poor imitation of their wings.
Kyle LyonsMay 6, 2016Great service, decent food but the blue cheese dip lacked the expected sharp & bold flavor.
Scott Casson-RennieOctober 31, 2012Ignore the special. It doesn't happen, you have to pay more than you'd think!
Nelson PabonJanuary 30, 2011Can't fly back home out of this airport, without having Buffalo Chicken wings.. This is a good place to have them.
AkvileOctober 25, 2010Didn't get enough Buffalo food while in town? Grab some tasty wings from the motherland!
Alex GuambanaDecember 29, 2013$6 for a Labatt Blue, even at the Buffalo airport, just seems like price gouging.
Chad WilliamsOctober 2, 2013Do NOT get the beef on wick. They use processed beef like subway. Being from Buffalo, I feel this does not appropriately do the classic sandwich justice. Stick to the wings. I am disappoint. :-(- Andrew ErdleSeptember 3, 2013If you're flying to JFK on JetBlue, this is directly across from the gate. Just wait here.
Steve BJuly 12, 2013I realized the airport location of Anchor Bar is obviously not the original, but wow I was extremely disappointed in the wings. WAY too salty - I literally had to rub excess salt off the wings. :-(

"Good food. The prices were reasonable and the service was excellent. If you go to the Cheektowaga, NY location ask for Big Dave to be your server. He is awesome. Big Dave is very kind and helpful."
