r/Wings 8d ago

Restaurant Wings Finally tried the wings in Buffalo, and…

Made it over to Duffs and Kellys Korner on 8/1. They were ultimately the 2 places along my roadtrip easiest to pop into. I really wanted to try Adolfs, Barbill and Wingnutz but didnt have the time.

Duffs had the best wings ive ever had. Presentation, taste, crispiness. All were excellent. I ordered the #2 lunch combo Hot with fries. I didnt even know what to do with the plate below the bucket. Haha. A+.

Kellys Korner was a bit of a let down. I ordered 10 or 12 Hot. Seemed like the local dive bar and the wing order came out super slow ha. Thats fine, but then the locals drinking at 12noom were all teasing me like i was a high roller for ordering wings. I dunno the experience, taste, presentation, crispiness all were subpar. 6/10.

Overall very happy i got the chance to try Duffs and cant wait to return to try a few more.

Not sure what’s going on in slide 4 buts that’s def not Kelly’s Korner, lol. Looks like you went to the wrong place. Also all the Duffs are individually owned so they’re all different, but the original location is generally considered to be the best.

Next time you come back try bar bill, 9-11, or adolfs - you’ll be blown away

This comment needs to go to the top. Went to a bizarro world Kelly’s and one of the “chain” Duff’s? Very odd choices/mistakes to travel all the way from out of town for.

I did an almost 8000 mile roadtrip to see a bunch of national & state parks and tried to add some wings in the mix that were near my route. Oh well.
