With the news yesterday that we would have early baseball today, me and the baws decided we would get a meal and a beer at Pluckers.

Called up to ask if they had the game, to which they responded, "uh yea we always stream the game". Get there, place was empty, and sit there for 45 minutes with the waitress only taking our drink orders. O and they could not figure out how to stream the game off of watchespn. We ended up paying for our drinks and heading to walkons.

I've been around here for a while and always loved that establishment but have had some shitty experiences recently. That coupled with the fact that they no longer deliver makes it seem like they SUCK now.

So y'all think they suck or what??

The wings are still good but the service has noticeably declined in the last year or so. I've noticed things like you mentioned, dirty menus, longer wait times, etc.

Still have good service at Nicholson, but Bluebonnet has very noticeably been slipping over the past year or two. With that said, their service still isn't as bad as Wing Stop and especially BWW. I wish BWW would go out of business so my buddies would quit thinking it's a good idea to go there. It's a disaster every single time.

I used to love Pluckers but the horrible service and management has turned me off. My new go-to is the new BWW in Gonzales. Been there four or five times already and everything has been on-point. The manager is very active and wants to ensure a great meal. Everyone is busy and working and not just standing around on their phones and whatnot. Pluckers seems to be run by hacks who have no desire to be there.

I haven't been to the one by the Mall in years. I used to like going there, but a couple of sub-par meals plus the high-arse prices have turned me off. T.J. Ribs has the best wings in Baton Rouge, Barcadia isn't too far behind.

The ones in Dallas are awesome.

The one on Bluebonnet in Baton Rouge fricking blows.

I really like their wings. They're crispy, but without the batter.

Pluckers' sauces are superior to BWW's

Had a similar experience as the OP recently. I rarely go there now. Normally just for nostalgia when old friends come back in town or after a late night. It's poorly run and the waiters that used to hold the place together are no longer there.

Subpar experiences are common if you go at lunch or in the afternoon. But then again, it's on you if you're eating Pluckers when the sun is still up.

RIP onion rings.
