BWW does use beef fat to fry their foods so props to them for that. Most everywhere else uses cheap soybean oil(vegetable oil) to fry their shite.

BWW is just fine for what it is.


I don't really bitch about food but BWW blows. The sauces is are so strong that most of them are gross. I was actually there this weekend and a guy got teriyaki wings and bitched about how bad they were. We thought he was being a pussy so the 4 other guys tried them and they were actually awful, like had to wash my mouth out after eating it bad.

I don't disagree with this though.

Every single time the wait for drinks is slow, tables don't get cleaned the entire time you're there. The food is average at best, it's cheaper than other places to watch a game that's about the only good thing.



The thing is that it really isn’t that cheap either. It’s pretty comparable to any bar menu. Maybe a few dollars dropped off the total but not enough to really make a difference

How many bars now have food trucks with considerably better food at better price point?

The dry seasons on the traditional wings are actually damn good. I get them extra crispy.

I’m also a fan of hot bbq, Asian and occasionally spicy garlic for dipping.

Bfww is what it is.
Decent spot to take kids or meet up with some friends for a game.

How about you keep a clean restaurant?

We eat out all the time. Just not at places that have become dimly lit pigsties.

BWW is expensive, if anything. It's more expensive than pluckers in BR and basically any random sports bar. The quantity of TVs is the only thing it has going for it.

I think the movie Waiting did a disservice to this industry, but who wants to go sit a shitty looking restaurant to eat food that looks like a kid would bake in his/her easy bake oven?

I've wondered about this myself. Louisiana doesn't have a strong "millennial" crowd but our sales are outpacing the competition according to Black Box. I do think some of these chains are slow to grasp the craft beer movement. You might have 40 taps but you need to go out on a limb and get beers that people do not see that much. If it doesn't move then put it on special, get it out of there, and try something new

Many of these options involve cooking at home. Grocery chains are increasingly competing with restaurants,


I'm sorry we like to cook at home.

That's a good thing. Damn.

World is better off without Buffalo Wild Wings and Applebee's on every corner.

I’m not a millennial.
But yes you did something right.
Hopefully your feelings didn’t get rattled reading this message.

Food-wise probably so. Employment-wise no
